Azure Ray hails from Athens, Georgia, the city that spawned
bands like R.E.M. and the B52s. Maria Taylor
(vocals/guitars/keyboards) and Orenda Fink
(vocals/bass/guitars/trumpet/etc.) are the women who make
up the band, sharing the vocal duties. Taylor says their
voices are similar, and people often can't tell the
difference between the songs that she sings and the songs
Fink sings.
Although they started up in Athens, Azure Ray is now based
out of Omaha, Nebraska. They moved there in part because
their boyfriends are located in Omaha and also in order to
take part in the growing music scene in Omaha. The band is
on Warm Records, but has released an EP (November) with
Saddle Creek. Taylor and Fink also play in Now It's
Overhead, backing vocalist Andy LeMaster. Fi More...

this is exactly how i feel about being away at college right now. everyone's a stranger and everything is lonely and all i can think about is going home. but home is gone, i just have memories of what it used to be.
Sadness | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song November performed by Azure Ray
I like this song because it can be about anything sad that happened in your life, mainly the feeling of loss.
My father left me when I was ten around this time of year and was in and out of my life until I was fourteen when he completely disappeared from my life, when I hear this song I think of him, and how much emotional pain he put me through.
It also makes me think about my best friend who died in April of cancer, and my depression afterwards I actually don't cry when I hear this about my dad, I cry about my friend, and how his life was taken so suddenly when I needed him most.
:(

I never expected you to love me
The way i loved you.
It's funny how you can forget there's a world outside yourself.
Where the trees keep growing and the cars keep moving Without you there.
and it's funny how you can forget there's a world outside yourself
Where the one who loves you keeps on living
Without you there.
I never expected you to love me The way i loved you.

I feel sad in november because the boy i love went off to school, and this is the time of the year i miss him. Now i don't know what i'll do in the meantime, and i don't know what it will be like when he finally returns.
I was so afraid of being alone, but now i'm scared that's how i'd like to be </3

------ About the song New resolution performed by Azure Ray
this song makes me think of a couple thats tryn to be together but the other person is having second thoughts bout being together. So lets say the girl is the one that gets tha point and shes talking about find new things a new resolution, a new light an direction... the guy is telling her she just needs to move on.
has such a peaceful tone to their music
Its so calming and if ever in a bad mood or upset I would highly recommend just laying down and listening to any of their albums.
Their music really helps clear your head.
I absolutely love and adore them.

This song is stunning, musically and lyrically. The softness of it is calming, while the message beneath the lyrics is distressing, even haunting. Makes for an interesting contrast. Brilliant and beautiful.

------ About the song November performed by Azure Ray
it always reminded me of how I feel every year in February, when I'm reminded every year of when I watched the death of my grandfather when I was a child.
That tragic event, although it still sticks with me, witnessing that has ultimately pushed me to become what I am today; but every February, I become this vulnerable, lonely, depressed little girl again, and although i try to change, i find i like to be this island at the same time.

------ About the song Sleep performed by Azure Ray
This song has so much meaning in just the words 'i can't sleep.' It's beautiful. No, magnificent. There is so much meaning in this song even though there aren't very many different words. Absolutely beautiful.
heartache | Reviewer: elaine
------ About the song November performed by Azure Ray
i think this songs about heartache in general. about anything..love, friends, family, personal things.
its pain that you have everyday..and you tuck them away just so you can go threw your day like everyone else. but sometimes you just wanna be alone and you like it so you dont feel..alone. like you get used to it and you feel you have nothing to give anyone.
so like she says she tries to change herself and the heartache and sorrow to find happiness.
..thats what i think anyways lol

my interpretation | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Displaced performed by Azure Ray
one of my dearest friends is batteling cancer. this song captures what we are going through. she is a great friend. always was always has been. although sometimes we drift apart, we always re-connect. we can just sit there and laught all night long about the past. we can sit there and cry about the past too. so much has been shared. what can i say, True Friendship. and although we sit in the hospital it all seems so unreal. she cant be sick. i dont want the day to end because i'm afraid it will end. my heart breaks. True friends dont come around every corner. I hope she will be here for many years to come. i know some day we all have to die, but not now not this soon. Well thats what i get from this song.
Meaning? | Reviewer: Anon
------ About the song Displaced performed by Azure Ray
When i hear the song i think it's written about someone the writer is in love with. However this person was just a friend and the writer never realized this friend was their true love.
"And she's my friend of all friends
She's still here when everyone's gone
She doesn't have to say a thing
We'll just keep laughing all night long
All night long"
and then later "am i making something worthwhile out of this chase"
it's also cemented a little when she says "watching you run, watching you fall... fall into me"
my husband actually made me hear it when we were dating. He dedicated it to me. We were best friends before we actually realized we were in love. So i'm probably biased... but that's what i understand from it.
I think I understand the songs meaning. | Reviewer: Jajica
------ About the song Displaced performed by Azure Ray
Me and a few friends have discussed this song quite a few times.
I think this song is about saying good-bye.
It is a simple line, and you do hear it all the time. "Nothing survives" like, all the friendships you have tend to dissappear? She's not too depressed about all those good-byes, like she thinks she should be, but what really lasts? You can only be there for your friends, and you try to catch them when they fall, as in make mistakes. And the friend of friends has been around through all those good-byes. The last lines that say no one survives, is like, everyone dies, or everyone becomes jaded by all of the friendships that naturally wear away, or just fall apart, I can't exactly decide. Wondering if she's made something worthwhile out of this place is wondering whether or not her frienships have been worthwhile, otherwise they're a waste of time. And...then it's a worthless venture, or chase as she says.
But I dunno. Love song doesn't exactly fit....except for a few lines.
It could be about life in general, but the stress of the lyrics are on people. So it's more on the people in her life.
Buffy The vampire Slayer>You | Reviewer: kelsey
------ About the song Displaced performed by Azure Ray
I also, first heard this song in an episode of Buffy, and although it wasn't alot of the song, I thought it was beautiful and searched for it.
Now for the meaning, at first I was pretty sure it was a love song. "It's just a simple line I can still hear it all of the time" I think she's talking about "I love you". Then, "Watching you run
Watching you fall
Fall into me " If you've ever heard the song "Crash into Me" by Dave Mathews, another one of my all time favorites, I think it's like that.
But then, she starts talking about a friend and that's where I get confused.
I think maybe it's just about life in general.
Anyone else have any ideas?

Yeah, I first got into Azure Ray because of The Devil Wears Prada soundtrack as well. This is such a chill song. I have really gotten into minimalist artists lately.
Amazing.

------ About the song November performed by Azure Ray
This song is so beautiful. I love the line about how she was so scared to be alone but now she's scared that's how she'd like to be.
That rings so true. If you stay single for long enough it feels as if you won't be able to give yourself again.
