about
Produced by Dave Hidek
Safety Last has been together for five years. In that time, the band has clocked in more than one hundred shows, performing over one hundred songs and creating a number of originals.
Threaded with great variety, Safety Last plays alternative rock with influences of jazz, classic rock, post-grunge, and punk.
The song “Oh My” is about coming to terms with young love and going through all of the ups and downs of a relationship, it also addresses the self-doubt one will experience along the way. The song's strength is reflected in the lyrics. They manage a great balancing act of telling a story meaningful to the band, yet vague enough so anyone listening can apply the lyrics to their own life.
The lyrics, So now you’re leaving/What is this feeling, are very powerful. It feels like an emotional outburst that has been pent up inside for a handful of years. All at once, the protagonist of this song is feeling rage, depression, anxiety, and disappointment.
The song draws from many influences and is reminiscent of 90’s grunge and post-grunge sounds.
