The tone is gentle, the lyrics poetically rich and the overall mood uplifting, Pawpaw Rod has crafted a tune that effortlessly bridges the gap between upbeat and soulful.
“Cherry Tree” also stands out on Pawpaw Rod’s highly anticipated EP, Doobie Mouth (An EP From PawPaw Rod) , a project that has a sense of freshness (“Sun-kissed dreams in my mouth won’t go away”) and authenticity that is sure to resonate with fans.
Pawpaw Rod – “Doobie Mouth (An EP by PawPaw Rod)” EP
The 7-track EP follows PawPaw Rod on his journey through love and self-development (along with a fat, loud package). From the first listen, it’s clear that “Doobie Mouth” represents an era of significant sonic expansion; it takes the listener on a journey through previously unexplored territories of R&B and pop, while still remaining rooted in the funk roots that make up the signature sound he’s become known for. The EP consists of the recently released singles “Shadow,” “Hello Dear,” and “Rainy,” and is rounded out by four new tracks: “When I Get Home,” “Cherry Tree,” “Ain’t Too Cool,” and “Lifeline.”
Doobie Mouth, a pseudonym for PawPaw Rod, began as an outlet for him to explore alternative musical styles. But it has become more than just a character; it’s a world unto itself. Imagine Pawpaw Rod, with a joint in his mouth, sitting across from a family, pulling out a briefcase and pressing play on a new musical experience. This character embodies what others see in Pawpaw Rod – a music maker who smokes weed and finds himself in a variety of situations, rooted in his life as a military kid turned nomad who never stays in one place for too long. Through these experiences, he created this work, hoping that the listener will draw parallels to his past, present and future, saying, “Once it’s out, it’s not mine anymore, and then it starts to live.”
PawPaw Rod has announced his upcoming Doobie Mouth Tour, which will see him perform a mix of headlining shows, festival appearances (Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits), and supporting Still Woozy at numerous stops on his Loveseat Tour.
Pawpaw Rod has received praise from notable tastemakers in the media and has amassed over 120 million total streams across his entire catalog since the release of his breakthrough single “HIT EM WHERE IT HURTS” in 2020.
“The sun-kissed dreams in my mouth won’t go away.”
Pawpaw Rod’s name is full of meaning. Originally a tribute to his grandfather, it is made even more meaningful by the pawpaw tree native to North America, which is rich in fruit. Pawpaw, in turn, is where your family roots lie. He doesn’t claim to have all the answers, but rather offers honest insights about love, growth, and principles. From this allegory, PawPaw Rod draws inspiration and direction, not only for his music, but also for his life.
