Little lockdown Demo about being grateful for the people we know.

Sharing as our sound engineer started a project to encourage acts to write positive songs while in lockdown, each Wednesday the gang upload their song for the week on this website:

We got involved with this demo made by Boone in his home studio.
Adrian features on 'The Pigeon' with Granfalloon too!

Lock up!

Grateful for you (Demo)

ABOUT (First person):
Manchester based composer and recordist. Lo-fi. Folk. Psych. Songs. Unusually long neck for a man my height...

Influences drawn from just about everywhere (though favourites include the album Forever Changes and anything written by Kurt Vonnegut). The common unifying threads are a twin lust for imagination and storytelling.

BIO (Third person):
Currently working on his fourth album; a double, potentially triple album… Granfalloon continues the work of his third album, Positive Songs, to focus more on traditional songwriting, and not quite traditional storytelling, to chisel out small, beautiful moments. It showcases this non-traditional storytelling with subject matter like... the meta-narrative approach to the dangers to you and the relationships around you that writing can have, expressing love through mathematical formulae, and 8 year old girls catching bees in Tupperware boxes, all with a heavy dose of Richard Lomax’s absurdism.

☁️ I romanticise everything 🔮

Blending the moody intimacy of Lana Del Rey with the raw emotion of Mitski. GRACiE is a pianist and singer-songwriter crafting indie-tinged songs that hit you right in the feels. Her smooth, crooner voice carries nostalgic lyrics born from a need to capture honest emotions and real moments. You might’ve caught GRACiE's music on BBC 6 Music, UK BBC stations, or even seen her perform at the BBC Introducing concert at the Regal Theatre, which later aired on BBC iPlayer. GRACiE's new single, ‘The Big Bang' is a cosmic love story, a metaphor for that explosive moment when love sparks life into being.

Bio:
I spent most of my childhood travelling Europe with a Big Band. This introduced me to a lot of live music mainly centred around jazz and swing. From this I taught myself piano and joined the band when I was old enough. I also grew up with a healthy dose of glam rock due to my dad being a drummer. From this I decided to create music somewhere in-between, making indie music sprinkled with jazz. I've been called 'moody' and 'serious' when I perform but really i'm lost in the moment and the lyrics. Currently I work with Vibe studios in Manchester where we're continuing to record my upcoming EP.

Also featuring the talents of mainstay members Angela Chan on viola/synths/vocals (notably a member of the Mercury-shortlisted Lanterns on the Lake and a touring member of Placebo) , powerhouse drummer Simon Robinson (brother of Ben) and the uniquely styled guitarist Adrian Ingham (assisted by a stack FX pedals); together as Hello Cosmos they are a meeting of minds of telepathic harmony with immense capability.
