📝 Lyrics:

I was found by the river of the damned
The waters rising, one more minute till I drowned
The hands that laid me, wrapped me tenderly in white
Fingers found me, reaching desperately for life

Where, where shall I go? 
Father, where, where shall I go?

I was raised in a foreign family
The things unknown were my soliloquy
To look beyond and see the things unseen
But when they heard, oh how they despised me

Where, where shall I go?
Father, where, where shall I go?

And I sung, oh I sung into your soul
Into things you didn’t know weren’t whole
When disappointment took your eyes
You left me on a rugged tree to die

Where, where shall I go?
Father, where, where shall I go?

I came back, 
I came running back
I came to take you home

Where, where shall I go?
Father, where, where shall I go?

💛 Song meaning: ‘Luing’ is the latest single from our upcoming album, ‘Thin Places’. It tells a childhood story of hope, wonder, and stone-skimming; of loneliness and despair transfigured by beauty and kindness.

🎶 Lyrics: 
My parents in the thick of war,
I fled the cottage to the shore.
A scythe shaped beach beneath the pier:
The perfect place to disappear.

I picked a round slate from the sand –
A pirate’s judgement in my hand.
I cast my stone against the floor,
It shattered in a hundred more.

A man sat mending nets nearby,
He looked up and he caught my eye.
“There’s more that you could do with those,”
He smiled as he wandered close.

He knelt and found another disc,
And held it like the Eucharist.
Then bowing as he turned away,
He skimmed his slate across the bay.

I felt I’d seen a miracle,
The dancing stone so beautiful
I wished my eyes were made anew,
Before it disappeared from view.

Remember I was only eight,
And kids from cities don’t skim slates.
He read the wonder on my face,
And answered, “Luing is a thin place.”

Lapwing - Luing

Raindrops

Because of You - demo - 2024

A sea of desolation
Camps rising into the November sky
Coastal suburbia, light blue and gray
Waiting for a summer day
Or the next storm surge
To wipe it all away

Chorus
Love finds you
In any place
Love finds you
It’s written on your face
Love finds you
It cannot be erased

Palm trees sway
Against the November chill
Bending like ballet dancers
Absent of broken will
And bay life is challenged
By winter’s early rise

Bridge
Winter rising
In the gray of the morn
Winter rising
Desolate and forlorn
But love prevails
Even as a winter storm

Love can find itself any place
Even when the northeast wind
Turns the coastal warmth
Into a frigid winter blend
But the firepit crackles
Encouraging a warmer trend

Chorus
Love finds you
In any place
Love finds you
It’s written on your face
Love finds you
It cannot be erased

Love Finds You

Driving Alone in the City at Night (Demo)

A Melbourne, Australia based indie/folk-rock artist with 70s piano pop influences, Daniel Trakell's double-tracked vocals and songwriting style have drawn comparisons to artists like Elliott Smith and The Beatles. After winning a Triple J Unearthed competition in 2016 to make a music video Daniel released his debut EP the following year, with the video for the title track "Paradise" being debuted in October 2017 by Rolling Stone Australia, who noted the track's "haunting, melancholic isolation and just-off-centre obscurity."
