Lyrics:
i bought a self help book
but i
couldn't help myself
i bought a brand new mattress
but i
couldn't get to sleep

couldn't get relief
couldn't see through the trees
couldn't get out my head
couldn't give a
fuck
couldn't get relief
couldn't see through the trees
couldn't get out my head
couldn't give a
fuck

i would've done something
but i
wouldn't enjoy myself
i would've given myself more time
but i
won't miss it anyway

couldn't get relief
couldn't see through the trees
couldn't get out my head
couldn't give a
fuck
couldn't get relief
couldn't see through the trees
couldn't get out my head
couldn't give a
fuck

couldn't help myself
wouldn't help myself
couldn't go to sleep
wouldn't go to sleep
couldn't help myself
wouldn't help myself
couldn't go to sleep
wouldn't go to sleep

couldn't get relief
couldn't see through the trees
couldn't get out my head
couldn't give a
fuck
couldn't get relief
couldn't see through the trees
couldn't get out my head
couldn't give a
fuck

Lyrics:
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin
Mother and Child
Holy infant so tender and mild

Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing 
Alleluia

Christ the Saviour is born
Christ the Saviour is born

Silent night, holy night
Son of God love’s pure light
Radiant beams from 
Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace

Jesus Lord at Thy birth
Jesus Lord at Thy birth

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin
Mother and Child
Holy infant so tender and mild

Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night
Silent night, holy night

Silent Night

Winter is a crisp and cold slice of homebrewed lo-fi indie slush, mirroring it’s namesake season. It can be a difficult part of the year for anyone, but Winter is tinged with grief, depression and an inability to shift those feelings amongst the bitter cold.

Winter is the third single from Ban Summers’ upcoming third album, which arrives before the summer. He records, produces and releases from his bedroom in Portsmouth, with extensive support from 6 Music, BBC Introducing and Amazing Radio for the homemade recordings.

Lyrics:
one day it changed
one moment like this
it can do anything
to people like us

if you want me to wait, i will
if you want some space, well
I'd do anything for you
I would

we've got our space
our own little world
where we can escape
and get away

if you want me to wait, i will
if you want some space, well
I'd do anything for you
I would

and it won't keep on raining
oh oh no
and it won't keep raining

if you want me to wait, i will
if you want some space, well
I'd do anything for you
I would

Winter

What if instead of the book and film Yes Man, you felt like you were always saying no, man? Ban Summers feels like the No Man - and in his new single he explains why.

Touching on chronic illness, disability and depression, No Man is his letter to friends and family on his absence and isolation.

Ban Summers homebrews lo-fi indie with all the feels from his bedroom in Portsmouth. No Man is the fourth single from his new album, which arrives before the summer.

No Man

Ban Summers self-titled debut album released on cassette + zine by Brutalist Records and also available on Spotify, Bandcamp, Apple Music etc
