after a long while, the first song of 2014 emerges.
special thanks to dialogue from "Rebecca" (1940) and some nice crickets.

Ballad for an Ethereal Moon

Palindrome Hunches, the follow-up to Halstead’s acclaimed sophomore solo effort Oh! Mighty Engine finds the Cornwall, England-based musician continuing to craft moody and endlessly mesmerizing folk-infused songs. This time around, Halstead teamed up with producer Nick Holton and members of Wallingford’s Band of Hope (including Ben Smith on violin, Drew Milloy on double bass, Paul Whitty on piano, and Tom Crook on guitar) to achieve a sound that’s both remarkably rich and piercingly intimate.

Love Is A Beast

It's not complete yet.

Lyrics:

You called me up
in the dead of the night

You made some plans
I said okay, that’s fine

I’ll see you there
with my chest feeling tight

Awkward eyes
not feeling alright

You saw me there
Losing my way
Not a word
Was said through the day

You said it’s fine
I feel the same

Don’t look away
You’ll get through the Haze


Weird is good
and so is champagne

So take this glass
and let’s sing in the rain

We’ll stay away
from people and pain

I know it’s strange
but it’s not insane

You called me up
in the dead of the night

made some plans
I said okay, that’s fine

I’ll see you there
with my arms open wide 

Awkward eyes
But feeling alright

Weird is good but so is Champagne

9 cans of red bull 

lyrics //

don’t wake up just yet
i know you have to leave
but you look so peaceful
when you are asleep

don’t wanna say goodbye
when you’re next to me
so why can’t you stay
for a couple more please

i’ll stay with these shadows
hoping you’ll return 
cause my heart can’t take it 
goodbyes they always hurt

i’m trying to let go
but nothing seems to work
so whisper sweet nothings
and i’ll make it though the hurt

your pretty brown eyes 
are shocked and surprised
when i ask you
what all of this is worth

you look at me strange 
it won’t be the same
you’re walking with your 
bags packed out the door

you don’t want more
you’re done waiting for a chance

i’ll stay with these shadows
hoping you’ll return 
cause my heart can’t take it 
goodbyes they always hurt

i’m trying to let go
but nothing seems to work
so whisper sweet nothings
and i’ll make it though the hurt
