Summer of '17 Assorted SC Greats

Lyrics:
I rest my heavy head
Over your washed out jeans 
To look you in the eye
And the moment's colored white

The seaming of your world
You sew yourself
The patches you embrace
You’re the making of your own past

Past
You’re the making of your own past

The snowflakes gather out
the corners of the window sill
But your gaze is so alight
And now the moment’s colored

White
And now the moment’s colored

Like the rolling snow
Fleeting hillside
You’re the crystalline
You’re the past scars

(And now the moment’s colored)

White
And now the moment’s colored

I rest my heavy head
Over your washed out jeans 
To look you in the eye

Look You In The Eye

A little over 1 week ago Laser Beam challenged me to write a happy song or happy love song, and I've never been able to manage a happy song without it being total shit, so I really thought about what actually made me happy right now, and it was my buddies here on Soundcloud. I have never felt so much love coming to me virtually or otherwise in a long time, so I thought I'd write a song with all (or at least as many as possible) people I've connected with through SC. I managed 56 around which I've tried to make a story for this song.
There are many more, but including everyone would mean a book, not a song. I AM grateful to everyone though, for all their support and love. So this This IS A lalaLOVE song for you.

Like a LASERBEAM shining into me
Can't tell you just how happy it's making me
I've got a HEADCHARGE Triple 7 heaven
Floating on a cloud with AN DI YI
Life can be heavy and it's some kind of WEIGHTY TREE
Now with my SPLINTERED FINGER I call on GLUTTONY
Kill who you want but don't you KILLWHITY
Oh life is SWEET, sweet like MELI

Chorus:
I lalaLove You

With a DYSLEXIC SOUL I turn on FRENCH RADIO
IT burns ASLOWFIRE through to the ABSTRACT DAWN
I drive too fast sometimes WHEELRIGHT and left
TRAVELLING WAVE high low with CAPTAIN LEST
Through ATLAS CEDAR it's a WONDERTRACK
SOFIA's magic forest yeah I'm never turning back
I'm DONEOFIT this FUCKED UP GENERATION
MSBESSIE she's ok
Love didn't kill her today

Chorus

SHOOT THE WENDY BIRD she gives me VERTI GO
THE COMA DOLLS on my mantel say it's time to go
FLOXYDE your peroxide blonde you know ROSES ARE BLUE
Tell Mr. TAYLOR I've got love and I've got it for you too
Take an EXCURSION into ECHO COSMIC
THE FISHERMAN threw in his line and now he's pulling on you
Ooh Ooh
Before we SCREATCH to a halt

Chorus

There's a MAN ON THE GRILL with a MELODY HEAD
He has a SU DA NYM they call him PSYCHOSPAIN
Don't STONE THE CROWS for their MOUNTAIN SONGS
It's only EVOLWEEVOL bringing on the storm
ABANDON THE INSIDE and BLANK AWAY
Today is not the last there's another on it's way
Life isn't like chocolate it's an INCONSISTENT JUKEBOX
No matter how much WHOLE WHEAT you eat
You can never get too much
ANDA and JOHN DONALD
JULIE and CHIARA
ESBEN HANSEN get out your YAGAS
PSYCHEEVIL in the stream will he find his way to GUIVILLE
It's a raging river
A push up a steep hill

Chorus:

Oh I love love love you
Yeah on yeah
I love love love you
Ash Wednesday
I love love love you
Yes I mean you MIDI PUNK
ALESSANDRO

You know that don't you LIAM?
It's love
Love
Love

This IS A lalaLove Song (Lyrics - Please read descrip and visit my SC buddies)

Layers of Afternoon

The One Who Stands Still (feat. Scott Moore)

Refined Believer

Following the growing momentum of Listening—which has landed on notable indie folk playlists and been highlighted by outlets like Purple Melon and Indie Folk Central—Dellwood returns with We Could Awake, a cinematic indie folk track layered with ghostly vocoder harmonies and raw introspection.

Blurring the lines between organic warmth and ethereal textures, We Could Awake explores the tension between staying in the comfort of the past and stepping into something unknown. The refrain—"Like digging for gold, am I made to break, or face it?"—poses the central question: Do we fold under the weight of fear, or do we find the courage to awaken? The song captures the quiet wrestling between doubt and purpose, between clinging to familiarity and embracing the risks of growth.

Set against flickering fireplace embers and fleeting memories of Minneapolis flights, the lyrics paint an intimate portrait of longing, uncertainty, and the hope that waking up—to life, to love, to purpose—is worth the risk. If Listening was a quiet confessional, We Could Awake is the moment of reckoning.

“With Solstice Sun, Nick Byrne & Tom Symmonds have bottled the bittersweet ache of changing seasons and set it to one of the year’s most quietly stunning soundscapes."
We Write About Music

“Solstice Sun is a serene yet deeply moving experience, perfect for listeners who appreciate the power of pure, unspoken expression."
Acoustic Journeys

"Houses offers a sense of stillness and a well needed reminder of the things, and the people, that help us to grow and find our way during times of uncertainty." 
When The Horn Blows

“Summer Rain will leave you contemplating your path and what is best for you, this cross-genre experience is a breathtaking outlook into recovery.” Mogg Blog

“Summer Rain trickles with emotions before morphing into a powerful thunderstorm of tranquility.” Neon Music

“What sets this lovely gem (Houses) apart is the usage of warm and comforting synths and very immersive songwriting.” 
Stereofox

“On daytime radio sometimes its hard to cut through the noise, Houses stops you in your tracks and makes you pay attention” 
Frankie Francis, Amazing Radio & Frankie & The Heartstrings

Buckinghamshire, UK based Nick Byrne blends poignant melancholia and thoughtful lyricism into a contemporary mix of indie-folk. Latest single 'Solstice Sun' is a collaboration with Gloucestershire songwriter Tom Symmonds. The multi-layered composition explores the changing seasons, whilst portraying the cycle of our own emotional experiences – and features Nick's band members Alex Baker (bass guitar) and Andrew Lane (drums) as well as violinist Sophia Bartlett of Tugboat Captain.

'Solstice Sun' is the third of Nick's tracks to be produced by Jake Robbins (Weird Milk, Cusp, Ben McKelvey). 

Previous singles 'Houses' and 'Summer Rain' showcased Nick's ability for heartfelt and introspective songwriting, drawing comparisons with Novo Amor and Keaton Henson. Championed by the likes of Mahogany sessions and BBC Introducing - Nick has drawn praise from indie-folk artist Fenne Lily, and Nigel Clark of Dodgy. Perfoming with his live band he has supported artists such as Declan McKenna, Dodgy, Katie Malco, Night Flight and Low Girl.

The Hiatus is over. I'm back listening to the great artists of Soundcloud! 
Someday I hope to record again to!

Birch Tree
