The Gloaming's debut album, entitled simply The Gloaming, was produced by Thomas Bartlett and mixed by Patrick Dillett (David Byrne & St. Vincent). It was finished in the summer of 2013 during the build up to a series of sold out concerts at prestigious venues in London, Amsterdam, Paris & New York.

In early 2011, the five musicians first met to explore their collaboration at Grouse Lodge Studios in Ireland's County Westmeath, an hour northwest of Dublin. In August 2011 -- newly christened The Gloaming -- they went on their first Irish tour, including a sold out debut show at The National Concert Hall, Dublin. The sellout hints at the excitement surrounding their formation, as does the fact that Ireland's prime minister Edna Kenny was in attendance that night.

Most of The Gloaming's work is based on traditional Irish forms, the basic grammar of which is known as a "reel." "Reels" are performed in simple rhythmic meters (2/2 or 4/4) and repeated in simple configurations. They are the syntax of Irish music just as a "riddim" is to dub reggae and the "break" is to contemporary hip-hop.

Happily, what The Gloaming do with the syntax of Irish music is anything but simple nostalgia. Into these traditional structures, they introduce deep wells of personality and experience. Lyrics are drawn from the history of Irish literature, old and new. The music is played with the authority of virtuosos. The result is unclouded by sheen or hokey sentimentality. Instead, it's haunting and emotionally charged. It sounds ancient without being a mere reproduction.

~ Lyrics:

couldn’t have held on any longer than I did
couldn’t have told you anything more than the words that I said
couldn’t let go no I couldn’t let go then you did
couldn’t let go no I shouldn’t let go but we did
 
And now there’s a space where our hearts don’t meet
And anyone who comes close to mine will see how I bleed I’m weak
 
All the words that you said well they couldn’t hurt more than they did
All the things that you said, couldn’t hurt more than they did
 
couldn’t have smiled any bigger than I did, when I met you
couldn’t have caught your eye, no I couldn’t have tried to feel ready
for this, oh I 
couldn’t let go no I couldn’t give in then I did, thank god
I couldn’t let go no we shouldn’t let go then we did
 
and now, there’s a space, where our hearts don’t meet
and anyone who comes close to mine will see I am not so weak
now there’s a space where our hearts don’t meet
and nothing hurts more, nothing than the scar this leaves
 
all the words that you said, no I couldn’t love more than I do
all the things that you said, I couldn’t love more than I did

~ Lyrics:

You’re standing in front of the fire, but to walk through is too much pain.  
Bold hands burn so you refrain. 
You were a walking mountain, shaking snow as you’d go, 
But you lose your way when the cold winds blow.               
Oh, it feels like home.                  
Home. Giving up, going it alone. 
You see the light in the tunnel, a way to escape the jail, but the iron bars of fear prevail. 
You found your feet were suited to holding you in place. Don’t make stillness your disgrace. 
Oh, I know it feels like home.      
Home. Giving up, going it alone. 
There’s bad and there’s worse.  You’re forgetting which came first. 
What do you dream of when the walls of awake are at bay?  Do you ever break away? 
Oh, I know it feels like home.   
Home. Giving up, going it alone.
