Cuff The Duke Releases New Song “Seasons Come, Seasons Go”
Canadian alt-country band Cuff The Duke, Wayne Petti (vocals/guitar), Paul Lowman (bass), François Turenne (guitar), AJ Johnson (drums) and Thom Hammerton (keyboards), released the second single called “Seasons Come, Seasons Go” from their upcoming seventh studio album “Breaking Dawn” on June 26, 2024.
On the track, the band laments the passage of time and departures of old friends. The song took shape after their first manager, William “Skinny” Tenn, passed away of cancer and then a few months later, hearing the news that Canadian rock band The Sadies' Dallas Good passed away.
Those two individuals had a big influence on the band frontman Wayne Petti's early days as a musician.
The track was written by Cuff the Duke, and produced by Wayne Petti and Paul Lowman.
“Over the years, I have sadly lost a few friends at a young age and, of course, lost other friends and family members who had longer lives,” Wayne Petti said of the song. “Regardless, it's always very hard to lose someone you love or care about. The song is self-explanatory: 'Some die young, and some die old, just like the seasons come and seasons go.'”- The new album is set to be released on September 6, 2024. It is their first album in 12 years since the 2012 album “Union”.
The album comprises a 12-track and is a deeply personal exploration of frontman Wayne Petti's journey with mental health. -
