Celebration’s fifth album, “Wounded Healer” will be released in June. The song “Freedom Ring” was released for streaming about a month ago, this is the second track to be available, “Spider.” The song would seem right at home in a Lynch film, feeling fully contemporary while availing itself heavily of comfortingly familiar ’50s tropes. Per the band: “Spider” was inspired by the Mary Howitt poem “The Spider and the Fly,” a cautionary tale about the dangers of flattery. But this is from the Spider’s perspective. It’s the seduction between predator and prey. A juxtaposed romance caught in the circle of life and death. Seeing the beauty in interdependence and deepest connection because of survival. Psychedelic rock’n’soul from Baltimore legends
