    Lyrics:
    I sleep to dream in this old house
    Only wake for the night
    The city’s queen and she holds me
    Till the first sight of daylight
    Trying to get through the breakdown
    Find a way out of this town
    Or in a lake of fire we’ll surely drown
    That’s alright if you’re with me
    And that’s why I’ll run
    From the shine of the sun
    That’s Stealing dark from the night sky
    My heart is yours for the taking
    If you want to take it
    I know you’re scared you might break it
    Girl, it's been breaking all my life
    I’ve been running on empty
    Like the ones here before me
    And all this hurt our hearts are hauling
    Hurts a little less each day
    And that’s why we’ll run
    From the shine of the sun
    That’s Stealing dark from the night sky
    And I held you close to me
    Showed you where my heart would be
    So when it came time again for me to leave
    You'd be carrying a part of me
    Let’s try to get through the breakdown
    Find a way out of this town
    Or in a lake of fire we’ll surely drown
    But that’s alright if you’re with me
    And that’s why we'll run
    From the shine of the sun
    Stealing dark from the night sky
    For our lives we’ll run From the shine of the sun……..Stealing dark from the night sky

    An Ohio singer/songwriter with a soulful, rootsy blend of country, rock, and folk, Arlo McKinley debuted in 2014 with his self-titled album. In 2020, he came to wider public attention with Die Midwestern, released on the late John Prine's Oh Boy label. Two years later, he issued This Mess We're In.
    Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, McKinley first began singing at age eight in the choir at his family's Baptist church. Growing up, he imbibed his Kentucky-born father's LPs, listening to artists like Hank Williams and George Jones, as well as Bob Dylan, Otis Redding, and Van Morrison. By his teens, he was playing guitar and singing in punk bands. However, in his twenties he began writing his own songs, gravitating toward rootsy country and soul sounds, mixing it with his varied rock influences. A troubled period involving drugs waylaid his career and found him moving away from music. For several years, he drove a truck delivering tuxedos between Cincinnati and Detroit. He eventually returned to songwriting and in 2014 released his debut album, Arlo McKinley & the Lonesome Sound. Hitting the road, he gained wider attention touring alongside roots luminaries like Tyler Childers, John Moreland, Jason Isbell, and Justin Townes Earle. In March 2020, he became the final artist signed by legendary singer/songwriter John Prine's Oh Boy Records label just before Prine's death that April. In August 2020, McKinley released his sophomore album and Oh Boy debut, Die Midwestern, recorded at Sam Phillips Recording Studio with Grammy-winning producer Matt Ross-Spang. 2022 saw the release of McKinley's third long-player, the inward-looking This Mess We're In.

    If you are here, you are one of us. You cry at the notebook, you laugh till you cry, you get hurt....the most. We are the select few of the people in this world that stop and smell the flowers. We are givers and we love with every single fiber in our soul. Dont ever let this world dim that light you have in your beautiful soul.. dont stop giving the guy your last dollar, don't stop loving whole heartedly. Dont let this world make you cold. You are my motivation... knowing that there are still ppl like us on this world...gives me hope.

    I'm sure Arlo probably doesn't remember this but a few years ago I was walking though downtown Eureka Springs with my bride through the shops and could hear one of his songs I look at my wife and said Arlo McKinley is getting some radio time down here! We get around the corner and Arlo McKinley and his band were actually playing on the downtown stage high up on the stone wall and right as we got up there they were starting a break. He came down talked to me like we were great friends in a previous life and took a picture with me. The man is just as down to earth face to face as he is in his music. I will never forget that day! These songs are so raw and real. The art here is very cool too!

    Discovered Arlo's music just in the nic of time. Been a particularly trying time for me and Arlo's music (along with similar artists John R. Miller, Tyler Childers, Chris Knight, Cole Chaney, etc. Etc) reminds me that life hits everybody, and I'm normal enough. Great song here.

If you have the chance to see him him at the small venues do so. He's becoming a man on the move with his much deserved and earned success. Personally he's as humble as you'd expect if you get the pleasure of meeting the guy.
