Premiere – Dave Shoemaker: Live Fast Die Last
Emily Wakin Photography
Debuting today on The Amp, is Bell County, Kentucky artist Dave Shoemaker. We have been anticipating his upcoming album, Hesitation Marks, due out on Tuesday, June 13th. Today we are premiering the single, “Live Fast Die Last.” It is one of Dave’s signature songs. You can always count on hearing the emotive song at his live performances. It is always exceptionally stirring when Seth Murphy joins Dave on stage with a cello accompaniment like he has for the album recording.
The premise of the track is a reminder to live life to the fullest; leave your mark on the world.
“You only live as long as the last person who remembers you / We each give each other this beautiful gift / So many paths lead to the end of us / We are the authors of our own story now / Live fast, die last”
Artists have the distinct opportunity to immortalize themselves with their art by recording it on the appropriate medium. Physical albums will be available on June 9th at Laurel Cove Music Festival. Dave will be performing at the festival in celebration of the release. Pick up a copy at the festival or download the album on the 13th. Hear the recorded version of “Live Fast Die Last” on YouTube now.
