about

Following an enforced break from recording due to lockdown, Blown Away took us 3 months to complete and is our most ambitious track to date. Multi layered and sonic. This song, like our previous release was mastered at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London.

Matthew J Donnachie on Vocals, Chapman stick (Microcosm) and fretless bass.
John O'Brien on Guitars, Keyboards and programming.

We were joined in the studio by a number of incredible musicians such as Paul Anderson MBE on fiddle. Jack Nicolson on Drums and Steven Gray on Sax. All added their own touch to this track and have helped to create its unique sound.

Last but not least Matthew's daughter Olivia Donnachie sang backing vocals. Olivia is a Student at the world famous Brit school in London.
We hope you enjoy Blown away...we have more coming, watch this space
Love to you all Matt & John

lyrics

Tell me where you go
When the daylight is gone
'till the morning after
I lie awake 'till the dawn
When the daylight is gone and it fades into the grey

Here I come
There you go again
Looking for a friend
'till the night is over
Here I come
And there you go again
Can’t you feel my pain
As I’m lost and blown away

One last time before you go
Or I dance alone lost in sorrow
Lie with me until the dawn
When the moment is gone
The words can never say

Here I come
There you go again
Looking for a friend
'till the night is over
Here I come
And here you go again
Can’t you feel my pain
As I’m Lost and blown away

I can’t wait until tomorrow
I won’t spend another day alone
You know that nothing lasts forever
We just hang along the way
