Life can make you feel pretty small, no matter where the calendar lands. This song is for anyone who does not feel they are meeting the strange standards adulthood.
What a lovely time to collaborate with guest artist Sam Rasiotis! Look for his delightful additions to The Repressions’ song “Ginger Dizzy,” on YouTube now!
Now on YouTube is a new video of “Tiny Little Love Song,” a song about the many kinds of love, where it goes and falls and, making it stay, and giving it all away.
What is coming? What will the new after be? Do we wait for it, search for it, or create it? The Repressions new song is called To The After, and will be released on January 23rd on all music streaming and download platforms on Saturday January 23rd. Join The Repressions for a live stream concert and celebration that evening, 9pm EST on https://www.twitch.tv/the_repressions.

When we are in deep despair, walking through the world around us can be a dissociative experience, looking at others who seem “normal” as though they exist in some other realm, where doing everyday activities and enjoying life is no challenge. Depression, and states of feeling outside of the conventional society, can make us feel as though we are only floating through the traditional world, unseen.
This new video on Youtube today features Barbara Dragon performing The Repressions original song “Ghost Walk” and hoping very much that it makes someone out there feel understood, and not alone.
Huzzah! The next single release will be Saturday August 15th! “From The Blue Green Sea” will go live for streaming and sale everywhere you listen to music. Links will be posted on this website that day. If you just can’t wait the song is available on Bandcamp right now!
Of course, to celebrate, The Repressions will be performing a free livestream concert that evening as well. Check here, instagram and facebook for more details to come very soon:
