Firelight Shadows are an Oxford and London based Songwriting Duo with a passion for the melancholic, weaving nostalgic tales of lost love, loneliness and lullaby.
They are currently working on recording tracks for a 5-track EP, available soon.
Also the song 'Lullaby' is featured in the film 'The Butterfly Tattoo', based on the Phillip Pullman novel of the same name, which is premiere-ing in Holland and shortly in New York.
just a wee note to let you know that most of us will be playing as a part of the lovely Shoreline at the Slaughtered Lamb, 34-35 Great Sutton Street, Farringdon on Thursday night. They're a great band, lovely people to boot, and it's my birthday, so come along and have a wee drinky.
Please note, however, that after we play i'll be babbling pure nonsense and drivvle, so say hi before hand.
