"I Do Not Hate You, Caesar" takes the title from the Catullus poem of the same name. A contemporary of Julius Caesar's, Catullus was famous for his witty and often crass writing. Sometimes heartwarming, and other times totally crass, the poet's work reminds me of modern talk show hosts, with all of their charms and biting humor used to satyr modern political events. This music hopefully maintains a "pops" groove throughout, similar to the sounds of the house bands that play during these late night shows. Textures shift from rustic and lyrical to brash and loud"
