New single ‘Flutter’ marks triumphant return for Galway Post Rock act ‘Bannered Mare’

Flutter is the first release from Bannered Mare since the onset of the pandemic. Finding solace in their artistic constraints, Flutter is an uplifting journey about finding strength and staying focused on your own path. Its candid and reflective themes gently carry you away before the guitars erupt in a final rousing chorus, underlining the actuality that we are all at the whim of the universe and no one is truly in control.

Flutter

Room

The first single from our upcoming compilation "Two Niles to Sing a Melody: The Violins & Synths of Sudan"

Performed, written, and composed by Saied Khalifa. Licensing courtesy of Saied Khalifa’s son, Montasir Saied Khalifa. Recorded in the 1970s in Khartoum, Sudan.

"My father wandered all over Africa, all over Arabic speaking countries. I remember a trip he took to Ethiopia. There was Haile Selassie, the emperor at that time. There was a big celebration and Haile Selassie was sitting there and they announced my father to come sing. But they didn’t find him, and somebody else sang. Finally my father showed up. When they didn’t find him, it’s because he was trying to translate his songs into Amharic to sing for them! Even Haile Selassie smiled when my father sang. And this is a big thing — because he was known for being a tough character and he didn’t smile at all."

-- Saied Khalifa's son, Montasir Saied Khalifa (excerpt from the liner notes interview)
