“Flyer is a Verb” is a short spoken interlude where Dessa thanks her fans and her city for supporting her music (and the music of Doomtree). It is the seventeenth track on “Sound the Bells: Recorded Live at Orchestra Hall” and is the only non-musical track.
[Spoken]
Before, before we play our last tune, I just want to acknowledge the fact that so many of you guys have been coming and supporting Doomtree shows for a really long time. I've crashed on people's couches in this room. I recognize people from Florida, California, London, Germany, and Russia in this room, who came for this show tonight. Thank you.
In Doomtree, the word "flyer" is a fucking verb. I have physically handed you slips of paper since about 2001. Thank you for not only for the support for Doomtree, but as you probably know if you've attended one of our shows, that intergenre stuff? It's tricky. It's tricky because marketers and retailers don't know where to put it on the shelves. And planograms are important. For gum. They're not fucking important for music.
And the fact is that we live in a city that's game to say "Yeah, okay, a Grammy-winning orchestra with an independent hip hop artist accompanied by some of the best voices in the city." That's a big deal. Not every city does this and we know that. So thank you for the support.
