about

"Sultry and smoldering, Toto Peña’s “Now” is an achingly intimate intoxication brought to life through a soulful, dreamy haze. It’s a raw and visceral fever dream: Peña channels his own charged emotions into a captivating vocal performance that, coupled with a smoky mix of saxophone, guitars, keys, and drums, proves utterly enchanting and all-consuming."
-Atwood Magazine (Mitch Mosk)

lyrics

I thought I knew what love is
Oh I was wrong

It’s something more than what you feel
It’s something you do right

Please take me back as who I know I will be
Please see me now for who I am

Deep inside
Inside you will find
Inside my mind I see

You
Now
You
Now
You
Oh you now
You
Now

Cuz something ain’t right

How am I living without you?
I’m dying, I’m spiraling
Can’t sleep through the night alone
I grew up but at your expense

Oh I used to believe
That you should just leave me
It’s not my choice
It’s not my choice no not now
But it was at the start
And I chose
So wrong

I chose wrong
I chose wrong
But now

Is this right?
Is this right?
