Definitely captures an essence found within my many layers. Sounds great!

all the children playing grown ups I'm remembering once I was a child... pure poetry

Conil, I enjoy your entire aesthetic. Poetry, art, vocal tone, and music of course. Your vocals here at "and everyone" is just superb. Lovely!!

Outstanding work. Strong affirmation of a chorus blossoms out of the more uncertain (just in terms of some of the harmonies)verses so well. Love it!

Impressive performance, lots of feeling in those vocals, excellent songwriting and production

Kitty’s Wake - Lyrics

At Kitty’s wake we sang the old songs
And the priest was telling me about his world

I’m at the old house for the last time
All the workers at the church stop when we arrive

And everyone dies
And everyone is born with life
And everyone might find someone they want to spend their lives with
Find someone they want to spend their lives with

All the kids are playing grown up
I’m remembering that once I was a child

Some are lonesome when they’re on their own
And then some of us never get the time alone

And everyone dies
And everyone is born with life
And everyone might find someone they want to spend their lives with
Find someone they want to spend their lives with
Find someone they want to spend their lives with
Find someone they want to spend 

And I should know

Strange Part of the Country

Lyrics : 
Just tell me why you're so kind
Why you think it's worth to try
Hold on tight
Never change your mind
Let me know what's behind
What you need to mystify
All this time
I was colorblind

How can you be so determined
Holding back your tears and smile
To my lies
If I could rewind
All the words that I can find
Giving hope you can't rely
To keep you fine
Always on my side

I've heard it say before
Like a hundred times or more
That secrets learn to war
Let them blow away
Our love we thought so pure
Is now lying on the floor
I'm feeling insecure
I should walk away


Backing 1
Just tell me why you're so kind
How can you be so determined

Backing 2
Listen to your love
We can all lose our way somehow

Smile To My Lies

I recorded my version of Las Vegas (in the hills of Donegal), a 1992 hit by Goats Don't Shave. In my new arrangement I have inserted the sound of my uilleann pipes. The funny lyrics of the song speak of an imaginary scenario where a city like Las Vegas, with its casino's, strip clubs, hotels, was built in Ireland, in the green lands of Donegal.
What could happen?

LAS VEGAS(in the Hills of Donegal)

This is a song about the senseless loss of life and landscape in Ukraine. Peace and Love! Lyrics:

1955 

As beauty fades,
as the ground begins to shake,
golden fields turn into
desolate moonscapes.

On both sides: eye for an eye.
The most important question
to be asked is: why?

Men who decide, but
never fight in a war,
command others to die 
while they remain secure.

(You asked) where 
have all the flowers gone?
This was in 1955!
You got no answer.
And quiet flows the Don
It carries on…

As language fails,
as human decency goes off the rails,
our attempts to help were sadly to no avail.

On both sides: eye for an eye.
The loss of life and landscape is unjustified.

Mighty men make decisions,
but never fight in a war. They
command others to give their lives
while they remain secure.

Oh, where have
all the flowers gone?
This was in 1955!
Still no answers.
And quiet flows the Don
It carries on…

How can it be
that in 2023
there are 22 wars
and so little peace?

Oh, where have
all the flowers gone?
This was in 1955!
Still no answers.
And quiet flows the Don
It carries on…

1955

The Glories of Our Blood and State
by James Shirley (1659)

The glories of our blood and state
Are shadows, not substantial things;
There is no armour against Fate;
Death lays his icy hand on kings:
Sceptre and Crown
Must tumble down,
And in the dust be equal made
With the poor crooked scythe and spade.

Some men with swords may reap the field,
And plant fresh laurels where they kill:
But their strong nerves at last must yield;
They tame but one another still:
Early or late
They stoop to fate,
And must give up their murmuring breath
When they, pale captives, creep to death.

The garlands wither on your brow;
Then boast no more your mighty deeds!
Upon Death's purple altar now
See where the victor-victim bleeds.
Your heads must come
To the cold tomb:
Only the actions of the just
Smell sweet and blossom in their dust.

The Glories of Our Blood and State by Garddwr Porffor & Nadia Selvaggi

In the beginning, everything often seems unclear, gloomy and hopeless. But then the first ideas come up, and little by little everything clears up until you clearly see where it can go. Be brave, have self-confidence and be tough when it's necessary.

Dreamless Elyana

3 COME TOGETHER, which was produced in Nashville, TN by Musik and Film studios by Stephen Wrench and Wayne Killius. This song tells the story of a guy who has everything is his life going bad from a boss who makes him work until his fingers are raw to the bone; a truck with a flat tire; a boat on the river that won't float and a cabin in the woods with a leaky roof. However, his life gets better when 3 magical things come together 1. Whiskey, 2. Cold Beer and 3. a Pretty Woman.

My Song - Music & Lyrics by Shark Teeth

I don't worry anymore
Kick dumb feelings out the door, hey
I feel just right, what do you say?
Beat down, keep up if you're sticking with me

Weighed too much for too long, yeah
There's nothing gonna stop me from singing my song
Might as well sing along man
You're never gonna stop me from singing my song
I am soaring, I am flying, and I can take you away
Every day where I belong
Cause nothing gonna stop me from singing my song

I'm not wary anymore
Feeling sunshine to the core, hey
Might last, might not, what can I say?
Laid back, light up, you can kick it with me

Weighed too much for too long, yeah
There's nothing gonna stop me from singing my song
Might as well sing along man
You're never gonna stop me from singing my song
I am soaring, I am flying, and I can take you away
Every day where I belong
Cause nothing gonna stop me from singing my song

Weighed too much for too long, yeah
There's nothing gonna stop me from singing my song
Might as well sing along man
You're never gonna stop me from singing my song
I am soaring, I am flying, and I can take you away
Every day where I belong
Cause nothing gonna stop me from singing my song

"You don't sound like anyone else," said Danny Thompson - renowned bass player for Nick Drake and Joe Strummer - about English musician Conil.

The GRAMMY-winning engineer for Tom Waits and Elvis Costello, Tchad Blake said: "Strange Part of the Country is an awesome album! I still listen to it."

Fleetwood Mac legend Peter Green liked Conil's music so much he stopped by Conil’s house to record with him. They recorded a version of Conil's homage to the jazz greats "Round Midnight". 

Strange Part of the Country never conformed to any current trends and has remained timeless. Now, people are discovering this album and it is becoming an all-time favourite. 

When the album was released in the UK, it received some amazing press. Britain's biggest selling music monthly Q magazine gave it: "Four stars - Q Recommends". Blues Matters magazine wrote: "One of the most original artists out there." In the next issue, Blues Matters put him on the front cover.

Conil left London after Strange Part of the Country was released and has spent the last ten years living in the United States and Europe - including New Orleans, New York City, and Berlin.
