“Driven Me to Madness” with Chasing Andromeda written for FAWM 2025
Datura has been used historically as a psychedelic drug, triggering hallucinations that can last for more than 10 days. But because the dosage varies wildly from person to person, the potency varies between plants, and depending on which parts you use or when you harvest it - plus a myriad of other factors - it is a potentially lethal experience. That wouldn’t stop me from growing it in my garden to watch it bloom with the moonlight. Collaborating on this song meant conversations about how to represent this dancing state of dreamy madness in the guise of an illusory relationship.
