Lyrics:
Evergreen, It smells of home
Empty stocking, all alone
Secrets lost, on frozen ground
Clocks Have changed, its dark by now
and the carolers sang in a silent night

Chorus:
Hm na, hm na, hm na,hm  (X2)
The water outside it slowly froze, then it snowed

Chimney dreams, they hide in smoke
Candles dance, in most windows
To lead the holy, on holy nights
The stars come out, the flame ignites
and the carolers sang in a silent night.

(Chorus) 

Mistletoe, confused by love
Bells the ring, when a cold blows,
Pray for souls, at a midnight mass
A baby, nails and a timber cross

(Chorus)

Roaring flame, turns most to soot 
Embers burn, with evil looks
Melting slowly, man of snow
Seek compassion, in eyes of coal
And the carolers sang in a silent night

(Chorus)

Paul-C and I started this song in March or April  in 2017 and one year later we decided to release it to the public. It is the first song that we made together and even though we both feel it is far from perfect we still think it has something.. what that something is well I'm not sure. Paul displays some of his musical skills on guitar and cajon and I myself am vocals. We wrote the lyrics together and they have gone through the mill. The song was originally called chillin with the fairies, but ended up well.. The Fox. I hope it gives you something positive

The Fox (Capall Ban - Original)

Lyrics below!

(listen with headphones for better sound) My cuz asked me about recording so I wanted to show him you don't need a lot to get started. This couldn't be any rougher.

Recorded vocals into phone and worked everything together in Audacity. One take. Boom! Let me know what you think and if you'd like to hear more in the future. Keep it real. Real woke! Peace

Just noticed I forgot to trim the end!! Haha like I said, it's rough!

Lyrics: Resilience by Shea (Moose) Murtagh

Started as a puppy,
Life happy go lucky
Then I grew up through the hard times
They ain't snuff me

Now I'm standing tall, personified Brilliance
Attributed to one trait - RESILIENCE

================

As a pirate 
I was hacking through the high seas
Riding waves that never again
Will the eyes see

I froze ice
I'm so cool I'm icy
I'm so hot
Man I'm fire like spicy, I

Never let it go
Ever better flow
Ever ready keep it steady
Like my cheddar roll

So on top of the game I'm out the ballpark
The Alchemist, Transforming, call me the Allspark

I'm a businsessman
I mean business man I still don't think you get it, I mean
I'm a business, man.

I attract wealth
Don't subtract health
You don't even know what you about to witness man!

Let's convene the order of the day
He who controls the money controls sway

Follow the yellow brick road to the dead sea
I see a black knight coming with a red shield

You're day dreamin', wake up before it's too late
Your education begins outside the school gate.

Oh it's all confusing
so it's all consuming
The Game ain't broke son, that's the way it's meant to be.

CHORUS

Resilience

Transforming

Jayson Bratten is an Irish musician, singer and songwriter from Longford in Ireland. Jayson’s music influence and style began to develop in the mid 2000’s when he lived in Galway. While busking on the streets of the city of the tribes, Jayson began to come into his own and develop a distinct style and sound. This was further impacted, by his years traveling to Belgium, Canada and Australia. These experiences led to what would be one of the biggest influences of his song writing. Jayson described “The more I traveled, the more people, places and stories I encountered, song writing became a way of documenting my travels and my experiences”. The eclectic mix of music and lyrical influences during this time can be seen, in his profound use of narrative and poignant lyrics in his songs. Soon after returning from traveling this outpouring of creativity resulted in his first album “Sex and Propaganda” which he released in early 2015.


Following the completion of this album, the groundbreaking Folk scene of Berlin, Germany, drew Jayson from Ireland once again. Within a short time, Jayson began to perform in a variety of venues from bars to beer festivals. These performances began to underpin his viability as a charismatic and distinctive artist. His music soon caught the interest of one of Berlin’s regional television channel s “Alex TV”. Jayson showcased his material on the hour-long hit programme INDIEAHNER - Music for your Tipi. This promoted his music even further and his popularity grew in music circles in the burrows of Berlin. After great success with his album in Germany, he decided to return to Ireland and pursue a career in his homeland.  


Since returning to Ireland in early 2016, Jayson has been promoting himself and playing in well known venues around the country, such as The Roisin Dubh, Galway, The Button Factory, Dublin and Crane Lane Theatre, Cork, as well as many local appearances around the island of Ireland. He has caught the attention of many well known radio broadcasters and has done a showcase slot on “The Green Room” with Orla Barry on Newstalk and “The Saturday Connection” with the renowned Charlie McGettigan on Shannonside FM. Charlie described Jayson’s song “Linda”; “I was very taken by his music, one song in particular, this track called Linda. What a great song, absolutely gorgeous song writing”.


In the last six months, Jayson has created a new collection of material. He will begin recording his new album in September in the acclaimed Grouse Lodge in Westmeath, which is famous for recording other well known artists such as Michael Jackson, REM and Manic Street Preachers. Jayson will be working on his album with distinguished producer John Henry, who recorded material with fellow Irish artists Ryan Sheridan and Scottish band Simple Minds.


Jayson’s unique singing style, coupled with his gifted song writing has created a unique sound. This writing of raw, stripped back songs has become his trademark. He is undoubtedly one of Ireland’s hidden gems.
