Foxglove- Winter

The Man was recorded in Crossroads Recording, Killkenny and features the talents of Brian Byrne on vocals and bouzouki. The Man is about finding someone that makes you want to change your life and become a better person. 

Photographs was recorded in my living room by Ciaran O Brien and Mastered by Romano Erafficci at ER Sound. Like most of my songs it explores the theme of break ups - in particular the experience of throwing out old photographs and other things that remind you of them. Photographs features Brian Byrne on vocals and guitar. 

What The Stars Hold was recorded in Rebel Recordings, mixed by Ciaran O Brien, and Mastered by Romano Erafficci.  Again, this song explores the theme of break ups but is bookeded by the refrain 'Oh those people on the other side can't decide. What the stars hold for you and I' which I always imagined was the little nugget of hope one holds onto in a failing relationship despite all the compelling reasons for you to part ways. In a break from my usual arrangement, this song features Dave O Keeffe on piano, vocals, and trumpet. Katie Conway also provides vocals on this track. 

The artwork for this EP was provided by Giny van der Burg

Thanks to Olga Alemán for bringing the magical Shruti Box to our musical world.

The Sun of the Dead is our new instrumental and video.

In Cantabria (Spain) it is known as the Sun of the Dead , the last sun of the afternoon that, according to mythology, the deceased would send, and to which a prayer was prayed looking towards the sunset. In other places of Cantabria it was that sun that was glimpsed in the days of drizzle. It was believed that at that moment it was then when the dead came back to life.

Hey Delveen
It will be done next Tuesday morning
I’ll leave the key inside the glove box
With the wipers broken arm

I just gotta  cross the road
I need a race form for the horses
Theres a pyeball in the 6th
Tipped can bring the bacon home

But I just cant sleep at night
With Liaka stuck out in the heavens
Still orbiting the earth 
At 16000 miles an hour

We can  talk when I get back 
I  also need a hair cut
Hey Frank hows the dust farm
Has Mavis come back home?

Yeah and  I saw Charlie down from Pickton
He didnt need no money 
He usually comes to borrow
But this time  he didnt want a thing


Hey Jim how longs the que
Oh theres only Tom before you
Yeah but he dont have much hair
Ill wait he wont take long

Hey have you heard the Japanese are  importing some new car 
With a  really stupid name like Toy,yoyo or ping pong
And  that South Vietnam’s going up in flames
And there all catching some flue called  Viet Cong


Yeah well how bout them Russians 
Shooting a dog into the heavens
Its still orbiting the earth 
At 16000 miles an hour

We aint careful theyll be 
on the moon before us
Then stealing our cars 
Out of our gararge       
Orbiting the earth 
At 16000 miles an hour

Take our cars from our gararge 
Take our bubon from our bars
Took our post war love
Took our bomb
They want our moon
Whats going on

You seen jack latley
He aint been in for hair cut
After that trouble with the law
Seemed like he  hit the skids

I seen him headed out to Duffy
For a Studybaker fender
Then swinging back through Deadrock
To get a puppy for his kid

Hey Stan I pulled the carby down
Your gona need a new fuel filter
The bowl was full of rust
Black and thick as coffee grounds

The that old Packard block is still in shop
I’ll need two weeks to  get her humming
I reboard all the walls 
She going needs a tone of milling done

And Stan tell Jed he owes me money
His horse “The Red Star of Wyoming”
Had only one good leg
When the that broke they put him down

You stickin with your ususal pompadore
Or try out the new Ducks tail
I hear the ladies love it
They say it makes men look like stars

Oh and have you seen Presleys  new movie
Its all about some jail house
There all dancing and a jiving 
Like its fun to be in jail

Sid from over Lockdale
Heard the Russians blew off an H bomb
He said their spies  stoll our secrets
Sure hope common sence prevails

Your all done “Thanks Jim”
You want powder on your neck
No Im heading back to work
Dont want the boys to take me down

I’ll see you for the next one 
Or the game on the weekend
Keep the change for a hair cut
Or a big night on the y town

See  you in the by and by

shields of fire

PAPER SUITE
Her dark eyes rolled like thunder through his  heart
Midnights bell peeled the break of day
Standing with his hands on top of his head
His paper suite fell apart in the rain

The nails on the lid were all hammered down
The oily shine in his hair had long gone
She looked back over her shoulder one last time
Then just walked through night into dawn


One hand on the chrome door handle
The other crushed the rose of her dreams
She threw the money in the hole 
With the bible and her soul 
Then fell apart at the seams


The embers in the fire had long burned out
Only the ash remained
Two gun shots echoed off the mirror of the river
As the evening closed in on the day

Her eyes rolled ilike thunder through his  heart
Midnights bell peeled the break of day
Standing with his hands on top of his head
His paper suite fell apart in the rain

PAPER SUITE  (Lyrics)

I love soulful music with meaningful lyrics.

My debut album is in the making, with some epic singles waiting in the wings ...
