Mastered by Jamie Lawrence

You’re alone on the Atlantic
Nothing but the back in your clothes
I see the dream in your pools
When they’re closed 

You fantasize and I panic
Skin to salt exposed
I see the dream in your pools
When they’re closed 

And I’m not gonna tell you 
Where to go 
What to see 
How far to row 
Where to be
What to do 
Just take me with you when you leave

He travels fastest
He travels alone
Laughs and the whole world laughs alone
Laughs and the whole world laughs alone

Tell me why did you stay the night 
Why’d you tell me about your dream
One eye shut and the other
Trained on me like a sunbeam

Tell me now why are we dancing
If the ground never hit your feet 
Maybe we don’t have the words
But I’ll hold you while you sleep

He travels fastest
He travels alone
Laughs and the whole world laughs alone
Laughs and the whole world laughs alone

The first couple of singles off our upcoming debut album 'Sprinter'.

Season 4 is an embellished retelling of one of our first gigs. Raucous, energetic, punky psych-rock cooked up at our local pub and recorded live and DIY.

Zipping is a journey through space in the midst of an alien's weekend bender. Also a DIY adventure, Zipping captures the live energy of Sprinter with a generous helping of synth piled on top.

ROCKERS UNQUIET NIGHTS RETURN WITH A ROAR ON STUNNING NEW SINGLE ‘DIAMOND AND THE MISSING SON.’

“No thinking of tomorrow/We only got today,” ‘Diamond And The Missing Son’

On December 29, acclaimed Northern Ireland and Italy based rock band Unquiet Nights unveil their much anticipated new single ‘Diamond And The Missing Son.’ A track which feels destined to become one of the trio’s crown jewels, the uplifting offering is their first new material since January 2022’s ‘In Spite Of It All’ and is a 24 carat gem that offers fans an enticing taster of their third album ‘Seasons In Exile’, which is set for release next month.

Conjuring up images of latter day Gaslight Anthem and the evergreen sound of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, the spell binding ‘Diamond And The Missing Son’ sees them wrap a radio friendly, crowd pleasing chorus around lyrics which tell a tale of two characters who find themselves entwined with each other.

Powerful, passionate and peppered with soaring, melodic guitars, Unquiet Nights’ singer/guitarist Luke Mathers reveals that their cinematic comeback track serves as a first chapter to a much bigger story involving the intriguingly named Diamond and a man only referred to as The Missing Son and fans can find out more when their third full length Seasons In Exile is released on January 19.

“Sometimes I force myself to try and write songs that aren’t directly about myself, and to just approach the song like it would be a movie,” said Unquiet Nights’ frontman Luke. “The back story of these two characters isn’t fully expanded on in ‘Diamond And The Missing Son’ itself, because of the limitations of a three minute single, so I thought if we were going to release it that I would challenge myself to write the whole third album from the point of view of these two characters.

“This is what our new album ‘Seasons In Exile’ turned into, which was a useful experiment because I’ve ended up getting a lot of songs that definitely wouldn’t have existed without the continuity. The funny thing is that when someone thinks they’re writing fiction, they usually discover it’s the most honest they’ve ever written about themselves. This seems to have happened here.”

Created in their own studio Credential Sound, which the band built themselves, and mixed by Neal Calderwood at the iconic Manor Park in Moneyglass, Northern Ireland, ‘Diamond And The Missing Son’ marks the beginning of an exciting new era for Unquiet Nights.

You can join them on their journey on December 29 when the single streams via all digital platforms.

‘Entre Chien et Loup’ is the third single and final taster of Project Gemini’s much anticipated, forthcoming second album Colours & Light. A Francophile-flavoured waltz through the depths of emotion, anguish and escape, served up through the lens of Project Gemini’s cinematic style. Featuring the vocal elegance of Gloria’s Wendy Martinez and guitar solo grit of Wolf People/Large Plants’ Jack Sharp, the beauty of the music is also wrapped up in the pain of its context. Shades of darkness, studded with pockets of light.

Having gained a great 6 Music reception with the title track and second single, Colours & Light, Project Gemini aka Paul Osborne presents one of two album cuts that Lyon-based Wendy Martinez features on. Having sent through the instrumental of ‘Entre Chien et Loup’, Paul mentions: “When Wendy sent me back the beautiful vocal parts she’d written, I was completely blown away. She’d totally elevated the track to another level. Lyrically, it documents an individual escaping a destructive relationship, and the song title (‘between dog and wolf’ a well-known French phrase used to describe dusk/twilight) was absolutely perfect. Jack Sharp added the finishing touches with his mesmerising guitar solo.”

Sweeping and celestial, the Francophile touch is heightened by Paul’s analogue saturated, Mellotron playing and the percussive tactility of Eleven 76/Call Sender’s Paul Elliott. A wandering bassline and the expert drumming of Sababa 5’s Raz Man, anchor the track further to its earthly nature.
