Timothy Eerie “We’re Going to Make It”

It’s no accident that the name Timothy Eerie is so close to Timothy Leary; this Orlando, Florida-based project is the aural equivalent of two tabs and a trip down the rabbit hole. This day-glo rock ‘n’ roller has been kicking around the underground since his first release in 2017, and has made quite a name for himself in a short period of time. Like many of the bands of this psych-leaning rock genre, there has been a revolving door of players, but that only lends to the mystique of Timothy Eerie’s sound. A sound that started as a bedroom recording project has clearly moved beyond the bedroom.

“We’re Going to Make it” is a hopeful slice of psychedelic evangelism. Written in the midst of such historical times, this track offers an optimistic approach to the end of the world. This organ-drenched composition is a nod to the late ’60’s flower power counter-culture with a contemporary twist. While swimming in effects, the vocals act more as an instrument guiding the listener on this 4 minute trip. A strung-out anthem for a better tomorrow and an ironic soundtrack for a dystopian era.
