‘Yowzers’ is the newest release from Ben LaMar Gay. His music is an irreverent blend of folk, avant-garde blues and free jazz. This track in particular is on the simpler side, built on a three-chord loop and repeating vocal singing lyrics that echo the climate of our times. The vocals are nestled within the swelling sound of a mini-choir comprised of Ayanna Woods, Tramaine Parker, and Ugochi Nwaogwugwu. The track acts as the opener and title track from Ben LaMar Gay’s new album, yowzers, which drops on June 6th, 2025. About the album and it’s track title, Gay says: “‘Yowzers’ was a word and a sound that came to mind while observing the intersection of humor and horror in our present reality. On one side of a coin flip, “Yowzers” is a deep sigh that quietly exits the body after facing the absurd. On the other side, it is a cry of amazement at how many secrets were left behind to help us endure and transcend the absurdity.” -Dan Peeke.
