Rising airplanes

In this closed down harbor town 
Among small city royals without a crown 
We are the only ones
Who are lonely ones

So pour your heart into my hand 
Think I’ve learned to understand 
Not to squeeze it
Not to loose it

See the rising airplanes
the striving fast lanes 
Everybody’s going places 
We’re dancing slow talk 
On a burning sidewalk 
We are behind in all the races

No one knows us on the streets 
Where we howl and collect defeats 
We are chasing sun beams 
Tax deducted beams

On our revolutionary French balcony 
The wind elbows our fantasy 
A red rose broke
Our dreams are broke

See the rising airplanes 
the striving fast lanes 
Everybody’s going places 
We’re dancing slow talk 
On a burning sidewalk 
We are behind in all the races

it’s You and me
by the hungry sea
You don’t have to worry now 
Darling please don’t worry now

You said that love was a simple thing 
I disagreed and cut your wing
It’s a blinding height
When you're losing height

Now yelling seagulls are on the roof
telling me they’re the living proof 
even the freest bird
is a bonding bird

See the rising airplanes 
the striving fast lanes 
Everybody’s going places 
We’re dancing slow talk 
On a burning sidewalk 
We are behind in all the races

it’s You and me
like the growing tree
You don’t have to worry now 
Darling please don’t worry now

Love, 
holds a secret which we fear 
drains the diamond of its glance 
shoots an echo in the bay 

The mirror, 
holds a body to display 
conceals the faces of the tree 
strikes a chord of dismay
that no one ever hears
and no one ever cares

so bring in all your dreaming 
your fear of leaving 
your hopes to find me 
and do it over everyday 

Drive, 
the silent road it calls 
piling bodies as they fall 
burying roses in the trench 
that no one ever hears 
and no one ever cares 

so bring in all your dreaming 
your fear of leaving 
your hopes to find me 
and do it over everyday 
I’ll bring in all my loving 
my fear of dying
my hopes to find you 
and do it over everyday 

as long as we’re still here
we're still here

We're Still Here

Lyrics:
A yellowed teethed man with a french old song
quietly he plays for the birds

he pours his notes in the gutter streams
filling the city’s canals

Don’t leave me now
Don’t leave me now

As his lungs pull in the bitter smog
He gives a clean breath to a stray dog

A strange man indeed to let all see him bleed
never thinking he’s done a good deed

Don’t leave me now
Don’t leave me now

The broken voice appears to be without fears
as it reaches for my childhood summer years

So you share a coin with a hope to conjoin
he nods his head and I go straight ahead

Singing
Don’t leave me now
Ne me quitte pas
Don’t leave me now
Ne me quitte pas

The Troubadour (Don't leave me now)

TEXT:
Teneriffatanten i pantermönster
ramlar ur led
Hon ropar åt kullerstenarna
Varför lämnar ni mig inte i fred

Svetsglasögonsjesus
köper frukt i City-Market
Han svär åt två apelsiner
Hur tog ni hon ifrån mig så lätt

Om vi nånsin ser varann igen,
så vet du väl att allt är redan glömt

Vad är du så orolig för
Varenda en så går ju å dör
o så har du ju släkt i var och varannan gård
Sen när du inte finns nå mer
så kommer det ju alltid fler
Du har ju släkt i var och varannan gård,
i var och varannan gård

Ordblixtsläggan slumrar
i Hoviska med sin jaguar
Han mumlar till sin hand
Varför slutade du ge svar

En trubbig trubadur
strittar med sin mopo på Vasklotbron
Han spottar på asfalten
Varför spelas alltid samma ton

Om vi någonsin ser varann igen,
så vet du väl att allt är redan glömt

Vårat Ödeland

Släkt i var och varannan gård

Ocean breeze
I was born in a pine tree grove 
to the hymn of the electric stove

A swinging lightbulb was the first I saw
 before I never learned to shoot or draw

Father said I was a bit too small 
Mother danced and sung across the hall

"If you never see the sun go down, 
how can you ever know that it does rise”

I feel it coming in the ocean breeze
 not even the trees seem to be at ease
I see the evening’s dying light
 as it goes gentle into the good night

I was on my bed with a shaved head 
The door stood open and framed the dead

A stream of faces walked by and cried
 No one saw me even though they tried

I feel it coming in the ocean breeze
 not even the trees seem to be at ease
I see the evening’s dying light
 as it goes gentle into the good night

Now all that’s left is an extension table
 set in white it keeps father stable

Mother moved to the Faerie Islands 
He’s having dinner in the growing silence

I feel it coming in the ocean breeze
 not even the trees seem to be at ease
I see the evening’s dying light 
as it goes gentle into the good night

NATALIE 

Trough narrow stairs and blood stained corners. 
I walk past needles and money lost on heat.
The bus was long gone, but the sky was filled 
so it was fine.

A change lied upon, perhaps a new beginning. 
But as all beginnings they seem to die or I’ll kill them

She was waiting at the movies, when I arrived she was dancing like a maple fruit. 
Her dress waived as she moved from side to side, I tried to follow but lost my step.

Natalie, come down from the screen. 
I know I’m late but will you be my only queen
You and I might be strangers but I think we can take it

I closed my eyes to not be seen, I dreamed I was a Siberian tiger.
Roaring on top of monks and mountains. 
But It was just a sigh.
A flash before my eyes, the hall it was empty.
The light flickered slowly until it stopped.

I saw changing shapes and colors like dancing flies on my eyelids.
They moved from side to side I tried to follow but lost my focus, again.

Natalie, come down from the screen.
I’m alone and I am high on caffeine.
Here on the floor in the dirt I’m all yours

I drew upon a lie, I drew twice
Straight in her chest, before it passed mine
it was the end of a film, that was never ours 
the credits rolled by

Natalie come down from the screen
I know it’s I who set this god damned scene
but I need your spark to light the gasoline 

Natalie, come down from the screen.
I’m alone and I am high on caffeine.
Here on the floor in the dirt I’m all yours

The signing of Alice Boman was kind of a coincidence. Adrian Recordings just had an intense spring with a lot of releases and had no plans on signing anything new. Then a local sound engineer from “Studio Möllan” gave us a record with Alice which he thought we should listen to. We did and time just stopped.

The first EP from Alice is called “Skisser” (means “Sketches” in Swedish) because that is exactly what it is. It was released in May 2013. The EP contains songs which Alice recorded in her home, just for her to remember and they were never meant to be heard by anyone, Alice sings with as much force as fragility, a Billie Holiday for the 21st century, without the jazz.

Alice Boman - Waiting

Timshel is an indieband from Vaasa in Finland but they have always ignored the borders between Finland and Sweden and had members spread out in both countries. This has created a mix between melancholic Finnish pop and melodic Swedish indie. 

Timshel started out in 2011 as a solo project that gradually grew into a six piece indie family, only to shrink back into a trio by 2015. Being a trio made it difficult to maintain the sort of wall of sound, guitar-driven and energetic indie they started out with. Instead they began to embrace sampling techniques and bringing in different musicians that could add the flavor needed for any specific song. The fluid line-up and sound of Timshel has forced the band to keep reinventing the wheel for every new recording. A situation, which any band with the ambition of constantly developing ther artistry, anyways should strive for. 

Bringing swinging indiepop, thoughtful lyrics, and honest energy to the scene, Timshel will make sure you have a good time without having to know any fancy dance moves other than the ones you were born with!
