"Have You Seen It All” is self released, with official release date 8/17/2021. This song was written, recorded at LKG Recording Room and Harmony and Anchor Studios, mixed and mastered by Briar Circle.

Have You Seen It All

This is an indie rock song nostalgic of late 90’s early 2000’s artists paired with a modern pop production. Introspective lyrics provide an atmosphere of yearning at times while catchy instrumentation and rhythmic percussion offer an upbeat vibe and singalong on the chorus. "Peptalk Gibberish" tackles the frustration one may feel when receiving unsolicited advice and the value of making your own mistakes. This song is a collaboration with LKG Recording Room, founding members of the band On Broken Wings and mixing engineer Devon Dawson (Local Natives).

Peptalk Gibberish

Uplifting and sentimental lyrics emphasize love, dedication, and the connection of growing old together. Originally written as a wedding gift to a close friend “Grow Together” delivers an infectious chorus with a bouncy/upbeat pop/soft rock vibe reminiscent of artists like Japanese Breakfast, A Fine Frenzy, and Paramore. Briar Circle is Boston-based and was born out of friendship. In 2018 singer-songwriter Lauren Ginsburg teamed up with childhood friends (Kevin Garvin and Sean LaForce - from the metal/hardcore band On Broken Wings). Together they’ve created a Retro/Rock late 2000's sound, occasionally blending with the Indie Folk and Pop genres.

The Act I Can't Attack

Lyrics

#Verse 
I would be wiser  
If I was the liar
I would be kinder
If I was the briber
I would be gentler
If I could be stronger
I like the spotlight
I still need your nightlight 

#Chorus
Find a way
To leave me shining 
Find a way
To leave me shining
Baby when you’re gone
I don’t leave home
Baby when you’re gone 
You’re running in the dark
Looking for a spark 
While I’m burning out 

#Verse 
I'd be your anchor
If I had set sailed for myself 
We all get tired 
So I've been sleeping 

#Chorus 
While my dreams
Are floating 
While my dreams 
Are floating 
Baby when you’re gone
I don’t leave home
Baby when you’re gone 
You’re running in the dark
Looking for a spark 
While I’m burning out 

#Bridge
Oh, Oh 
Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh 
Oh, Oh
We roll around
We roll around, Oo 
We roll around
We roll around, Oo 
To put me out 
To put me out 
You put me out
We roll around, Oo 
We roll around
To put me out
The fire dies 
Until the fire dies
Until the fire 
Until the fire dies 
I’ll be here
I’ll be here until the fire
I’ll be here until the fire dies

Until the Fire Dies

Until The Fire Dies
