HIDDEN ERROR: Usage of "labels" is not recognized
Giant Sand (also currently recording as Giant Giant Sand) is an American band from Tucson, Arizona. Its most constant member is singer-songwriter Howe Gelb.
Members have included keyboardist Chris Cacavas (of Green on Red), bassist Paula Jean Brown (who was briefly a member of The Go-Go's and was married to Gelb at the time), Mark Walton (of The Dream Syndicate and Continental Drifters), drummer Tom Larkins (later to become a Jonathan Richman sideman). and Iain Shedden, drummer with Australian band The Saints. For a long while the band's rhythm section consisted of John Convertino and Joey Burns (of Calexico fame). In the early 2000s Howe Gelb reinvented the band again - this time with players from Denmark.
Guest artists over the last 3 decades have included Victoria Williams, Neko Case, Juliana Hatfield, PJ Harvey, Vic Chesnutt, Steve Wynn, Vicki Peterson, Rainer Ptacek, M. Ward, Isobel Campbell, nearly all members of the band Poi Dog Pondering, and Indiosa Patsy Jean (Gelb and Brown's daughter).

Flying Around The Sun At Remarkable Speed
by: Giant SandThere's a window out there
Number seventeen
There's a wind out there
Blowing blustery
There's a semi out there
A semi-strange occurance
Where the tyre tracks disappear
It's there to remind you
It's there to remind me
That the find is free
That the find is free
Forget all about cash
And best to forget about wires
Now don't go getting yourself in a rash
You'd better forget about your aspires
We're in the middle of nowhere
Way out in the great beyond
Flying around the sun
