Witches

I stepped into the water
Dipped my toes below the surface
And felt it pulling me inside
It made me rather nervous

I can't back away from you
I'm left out here to drown
Stepped too far from the river bed
I don't feel a thing at all now

I wish this never happened to me

Every movement that I make
It always casts a shadow
In the daytime or the streetlights
You have always followed

I can't do the slightest thing
Knowing that you'll find out
Cornered in your room again
I don't feel a thing at all now

I wish this never happened to me

When I'm underground
I'll never hear a sound from you
When I'm underwater
I never will be bothered by you

I wish this never happened to me

Cornered

Souls

You're No Aimee Mann

No hello, no “hi”
Just an old fashioned binary bye
Look me up sometime
When you’re married and high on red wine

Write me into your song
As your antagonist tag-along
Witty metaphor's if you can
Just remember, you're no Aimee Mann

I could've been anyone
This performance was just a dry run
Your theory seems benign
But, I find Occam's Razor works fine

Write me into your song
As your antagonist tag-along
Witty metaphor's if you can
Just remember, you're no Aimee Mann

Every now and then it all goes to hell
We can't talk anymore, like in Pavlov's bell
It's seems that I was always some session dude
Chasing tempos to your mood

Write me into your song
As your antagonist tag-along
Witty metaphor's if you can
Just remember, you're no Aimee Mann

Maybe you could be my Jon Brion
Pull out all the stops for free ...

And fix, 
Every mix, 
That conflicts... with complex arrangements


You're No Aimee Mann

Field Music return with new 14 track album ‘Commontime’, set to be released on 5th February 2016 via Memphis Industries. 
The first song to be taken from the album is ‘The Noisy Days Are Over’, an insistent, sax-punctuated groove and a conversation between two friends struggling to say farewell to the bad old boozy days, when they should “get to bed like everyone else".

 
Over the past four years, North-East siblings Peter and David Brewis have threaded their way through one extra-curricular project after another but were inevitably drawn back to working together on their own songs. "As much fun as we might have had on our own or collaborating, we missed just spending time in the studio, the two of us, trying things out and playing together." explains David.

The space that Field Music vacated in those four years still appears to be empty. No one else really does what Field Music do: the interweaving vocals, the rhythmic gear changes, the slightly off-chords, but with the sensibility that keeps them within touching distance of pop music. But with Commontime, Field Music show off their unashamed love of choruses in a way they’ve only hinted at before.

Written and recorded in spontaneous bursts over six months in their Wearside studio, Commontime is built around the brothers playing and singing together again, but also features a wider array of players, including original Field Music keyboardist Andrew Moore, Peter's wife Jennie Brewis and new member of the live band Liz Corney on vocals, plus a panoply of other players.

“We wanted to embrace being a duo and, perversely, that made us feel more comfortable about all of those conspicuous cameos” reveals David.  Over the fourteen songs of Commontime, real life conversations are replayed, acquaintances come and go, hard won friendships are left to drift and diffuse snap shots of the everyday are pulled together into what must rank amongst Field Music’s best works to date. 

Commontime is available to pre-order at www-field-music.co.uk on limited edition 2 x 180gram green vinyl + download code, CD, and download. The first 250 physical orders include an exclusive signed print.   The album is also available to pre-order on iTunes with an instant download of ‘The Noisy Days Are Over’.
