Night Fiction is Cian Nugent's third album but his first taking on the role of singer-songwriter. Where his previous two albums: 2013's Born With The Caul and 2011's Doubles saw him exploring extended guitar based instrumentals with his band, The Cosmos, here he has reigned things in and focused his songwriting skills. Guitar fans, do not fear, there is still plenty of soloing and fingerpicking here. With 7 songs both solo and with his band, this album amalgamates everything Cian has done up to this point and reveals a more broad palate of influences, including The Velvet Underground, Richard Thompson, Television, Neil Young, John Lennon, Fred Neil, etc.

Recorded over a week beginning on Valentine's Day 2014, Night Fiction was recorded in Bow Lane Studios in Dublin with Daniel Fox (Girl Band) and mixed by Brendan Jenkinson. The album's seven songs include solo ventures as well as full-band recordings feat. David Lacey on drums, Conor Lumsden on bass, Brendan Jenkinson on organ and piano and Ailbhe Nic Oireachtaigh on viola. The vibe here is familiar yet refreshing and a logical progression for Cian.

"I've always been impressed and inspired by Cian's guitar playing; now on this album he brings his voice and stories to only expand that brilliance" - Steve Gunn




Cian Nugent - Things Don't Change That Fast

NEW SINGLE FROM RECORD ARRIVING AFTER THE SNOW.

*Artwork by Jason Harvey

TIVOLI

Aren’t you tired of the way boys who feel feel?
all folded arms and compliments
in pain to feign their innocence
when what they really want is

what you really want is
not written on the bathroom stall
or pleasures more mechanical or manual 
it’s worse than them all

In the kilt that you kept 
out of guilt that you let
all your fathers down
you were bold for a joke
but it went too well
now you’re going to hell 

You could lie to me now but you won’t
I could try to be shy but I’m not
cuz where you’re going I want to be there
and there’s no use stopping 
when the flames jump so near

in the street where we met
after everyone left
you wouldn’t say goodbye
you were bold for a joke
but it went too well
now you’re going to hell

you can dance on a Saturday night
till the light’s come on and the morning’s young
but when church bells ring, you'll go off to him
and tell everything.

I know you had such good intentions
when you took my idle hand
what came next, well I think you can guess
it doesn't end well
we’re going to hell.
