Scott’s Tees Crafts a Glow Out of Lo-Fi Grit With “We Move As Fast As Storms Allow”
“We Move As Fast As Storms Allow” is one of those songs that feels quiet at first, but it sticks with you. Scott’s Tees, a solo artist from Edmonton, put the whole track together alone, recording it in a bedroom with a Tascam recorder and Audacity. That setup gives the song a rough, homemade feel, but it works. Nothing is polished, and that’s part of the charm.
The chorus hits the hardest. The harmonies lift the whole song and give it a kind of glow that makes you stop and pay attention. Scott’s Tees says the song was inspired by a dream, and it makes sense when you hear it. There’s a drifting, half-awake feeling in the way the vocals move, almost like the track is following a thought instead of forcing one.
You can hear influences from bands like Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, and Iron and Wine, but the song doesn’t copy any of them. Instead, it leans into a mix of alt-rock grit and soft folk touches. It’s simple but thoughtful, and it sounds like something made by someone who really pays attention to details. There are no upcoming shows, and Scott’s Tees keeps things pretty low-key. They’re open about wanting to learn more and eventually move toward a more polished sound, but for now, this lo-fi style feels honest. It’s the kind of track you find by accident, play again out of curiosity, and then end up liking more than you expected.
“We Move As Fast As Storms Allow” may be recorded at home, but it doesn’t feel small. It feels personal. And sometimes, that’s exactly what a song needs.
