You're All I Got

The 40 Foot is a swimming, bathing, and diving area in Sandycove, Dublin, Ireland. Cathal was inspired to write this song because of his historical family links to the area. His Father grew up in Seapoint Avenue and his ancestors lived on both the East and West Pier Lighthouses in Dun Laoghaire. 

"My great grandfather Jack O'Briain was the Assistant Keeper on the East Pier Lighthouse around 1921 and was then moved to the West Pier to work there as the Principal Keeper. My grandfather Sean O'Briain was a member of the Blackrock Gaelic League and one of the founders of Scoil Lorcáin Templehill, Blackrock.

The 40 Foot got its name from the army regiment, The Fortieth Foot, who were stationed at Sandcove's Tower until they were disbanded in 1904.
The original song is about personal freedom, obtained though sacrifice and by getting back to basics, such a diving into salty sea water to refresh the spirit.

The 40 Foot

A musical love letter to the man who raised fire and laughter, with wheels under his soul and stories in his wake.
For the one who still believes the best thrills take time.
Dedicated to Arnulf, “Ulven” 🛻🌌

Just Another Place


Just a little truth
Just a little reason
Just a little lie
That sent me to prison

Just a little heart
Just a little soul
Just a human being
That I didn't know

Just another time
Just another place
I thought you were my friend
But now I see your face

Just Another Place
