A big thanks to Justin for picking this song out of hundreds of submissions! It was an honor to be featured alongside such amazing artists as Ted Morris, Look Left, Fitz, Luke Mitchem, and so many others!

Irretrievably hooked, he took salsa lessons, learned to play the Cuban tres, and studied the sacred rhythms of the batá. Between clandestine trips to Havana and Santiago de Cuba, he met Cécile, a French exchange student who would become his muse and one true love. He followed her breathlessly to Paris, where he has been ever since, sipping Cuban rum and burgundy wine in sidewalk cafés, crafting curious little songs that bring a smile to the lips and a glow to the heart.

“Hunger can be a deceptive ocelot. One moment it flares it’s nostrils into large flowering shapes, the next it is playing bananagrams like a docile ferret. The only thing for sure about hunger is that it is here to stay, held at bay by a thin orange line of carbohydrates and occasionally a thin green line of asparagus. That is, until something, shall we say, tastier, occurs on the horizon. Like a northern light of flavor, meat rears it’s delicious head onto the hamburger roll, but we are forced to ask, what is this soylent green?

Dave Garlitz answers these questions and more in his new international hit single “I Wanna Eat You Up”.
With direction by Boat Safety Film’s own Giga Shane and cameos by a host of props and codecs, this video is sure to light up the late summer line-up on your Vimeo queue and local indie festival.”

An excerpt of Calamity Jeanne performing at the beautiful Hotel de Ville in Paris, complete with a smokin’ guitar solo by yours truly (if I do say so myself!).

As is often the case, this song “existed” partially in my head for at least a year, but I finally figured out how to finish it during a 4-day trip to the seaside with Cécile and Emma (it rained for four days straight, so I had plenty of free time!).
