NIC-D'EA

is a solo vocalist, exploring all sorts of sound realms from folk and mediaeval music over goth, wave, pop, rock, metal to avant garde, frequently working with experimental musicians such as 
Leander Reininghaus, Andreas Stollenz aka Froyd, Massimo Nicoletti und Andreas v. Garnier. 

Her focus is impro composition, quick lyric writing in various languages, invocations and meditative song, vocal layers and loops, yet at the same time she keeps writing songs on her guitar every day, following the path of singer-songwriter tradition in her very own voice and style - so currently is working on both, an acoustic and a loop-programme. 
Studio recordings are upcoming, yet time is scarce, so no idea yet when to announce a publication. Keep an eye on http://nic-dea.bandcamp.com/

In March 2007 she established a collaboration of international musicians (Ireland, UK, Germany, Canada, America) to save the Hill of Tara in Ireland as a World Heritage Site, since endangered by a major road project. 
The courageous activists on site, who stayed 24/7 to protect the culturally and spiritually (yes!) important grounds, failed - and as it is, the corrupt Irish government's bulldozers seem to have won, for now... but the songs ("Songs For The Unsung") remain. Many artists gathered for Tara in that year: There are two other great CD-projects, one of them involving Liam Ó'Maonlaí (->Hothouse Flowers) and the renowned harper and Tara-activist Laoise Kelly. You find their song for Tara here: http://www.myspace.com/liamomaonlaimusic  -> "Tara's Eye/ The Money Mad Mile" ... 
Previously available for download from Outersounds.ie with the money going directly to the protesters on site, the SONGS FOR THE UNSUNG will be made available from BANDCAMP again soon; any earnings from sales shall then go to the Irish druid community at Tara. Yes, there are some, and they were actively involved in the fight in 2007.  - http://uk.myspace.com/taravigilcampcd is an abandoned web-corpse today, but still may offer an impression or traces...

olliray makes emotive, cinematic music that sits between intimate piano ballads and modern electronic soundscapes. A singer songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from London, he blends live piano and guitar with textured production to create songs that feel close and expansive at the same time.

Alongside his original work, he records stripped-back piano and guitar covers of songs he loves. These late-night performances sit naturally beside his own writing, shaped by the same focus on atmosphere, storytelling and emotional detail.

He had a short spell of violin lessons when he was younger; everything else on piano, guitar and production is self-taught. That instinctive path runs through his music; he writes, plays and shapes his songs by ear, chasing what feels honest rather than what follows the rulebook.

His debut single BoxRox and first album Stuck in Traffic captured a raw, lyric-driven phase where he produced and sang everything himself. Between followed, pushing further into experimental electronic textures. He then released Piano for Yoga, a live, meditative piano recording created in a single continuous flow for a yoga video soundtrack.

In 2024 he returned to his roots with Lost Romance, an album built from songs written 18 years earlier and revisited with a more reflective, nostalgic perspective. It moves between gentle piano pieces and fuller arrangements, tying his early ideas to the sound he has grown into now.

He is currently working on new music that continues to blur the lines between acoustic songwriting and electronic production, always searching for the balance between warmth, space and emotional weight.

For a first listen, start with Stuck in Traffic or How Long if you want reflective, cinematic songwriting, then explore the Covers Playlist to hear his take on songs by artists he loves. Fans of Bon Iver, Ben Howard, Nick Mulvey, Coldplay and M83 may feel at home in his world.

Ghosts Of Nothing is a one-person musical project, but collaborations are likely.
Based in Unit731 in a garden near the sea the music will be created in a grand looking chair at a work desk that is uncomfortably high.

When they get to the halfway point they will be taking a twenty year break. Deal with it.
