RISE

When I wrote “If I Was No More” I was in a really dark place, and it was a painful one to write. It’s not easy to talk about that headspace where everything got so heavy that part of me craved to no longer be there to bear it. It’s a scary thought, one that comes with a lot of guilt and shame. Out of all the songs on the album this one is the one that feels the hardest to share, even now, from the other side. But it’s also one of the best songs I have ever written and it’s an important one to share. With this one music does what it does best - express those things that words alone can’t carry.

If I Was No More

The Courtyard (Radio Edit)

Lyrics;
Before we realise
All the pseudo-freedom we’ve engineered
Will have tied our hands behind our backs and took the wheel

Even though it seems
Like a Utopian paradise, it’s by design
So when human nature rears it’s ugly head
Don’t be surprised

So I’ll stay inside
Until we start regressing

Ooooh,
Something terrible is going to happen soon
I can feel it in the air, wish it weren’t true
But the state were in is by design

The end is almost here
Raise a glass as the sun comes crashing down
First it burns through major cities and then it spreads through smaller towns

And as despairing as it seems
Hemlington will be swallowed by the lake
And some 150 burned out cars will land on Eastern American shores

So I’ll remain inside
Until the future’s over

Ooooh,
Something terrible is going to happen soon
I can feel it in the air, wish it weren’t true
But the state were in is by design

Until You Showed Me

1974 (that's how it was in those days)

RTE Radio1 Folk Award nominee (Best Emerging Artist category 2022), Ciara O’Neill releases new track ‘Woman’ the first single taken from her upcoming EP of the same name following the release of the celebrated ‘La Lune’ and ‘Le Soleil’ singles.
Ciara says: “Woman is an exploration of the beauty and complexities of being a Woman in modern society. Looking at myself, my own female relatives and those Women in history who have lived lives in the shadows, it’s about having a desire for more, not feeling the need to conform to expectations placed on us, and allowing ourselves to be visible and speak our truths.”

Fading (Mix 2)

Give yourself a chance
Let yourself win
It's time you begin
To live
In your skin

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

It may have been tough
Before
But today
Will change
When you head out the door

Follow your heart
Follow your dreams
Follow your passion
It's not a lot
So it seems

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

If you know that you'll be fine
Give yourself permission
It is time
It is time

Accept
Who you are
Accept your ways
Nobody is perfect
You should not be afraid

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

If you know that you'll be fine
Give yourself permission
It is time
It is time

It is time
Who you are
Accept your ways
Nobody is perfect
You should not be afraid

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

Give Yourself a Chance (Reprise)

Corey Bowen is a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and bedroom-producer from Middlesbrough, UK.

Working as a songwriter and solo artist since the age of 16, Bowen began playing live following an invitation to tour with Christopher Owens (formerly of Girls fame). The tour was then followed up with live appearances at T In The Park and Green Man festivals, further touring within the UK, industry backing from the likes of Universal and Sony, airplay from Annie Mac and Huw Stephens and positive reviews from outlets such as The Line Of Best Fit, DIY Mag and Boys by Girls.

Following a 4-year period touring and working as a performer, Bowen took a back seat to focus on ghostwriting for other artists and producing music for TV.

In 2022 Corey decided to start releasing his own songs again, forming writing duo Modern Rodeo with long-time collaborator and close friend Charlie Glazebrook, whilst resuming his work as a solo-artist in parallel.
