Ciara O'Neill

Ciara O'Neill grew up in a seaside village, Co. Armagh, on the east coast of Ireland. Her passion is exploring and being experimental using different kinds of materials to create designs. She also uses her creativeness in the music she has produced. ‘Primroses' is her beautiful debut EP. Folk alternative with a dark edge. Her singing brings haunting dreams that stay and follow you. Complex melancholic prose. She effortlessly picks her way through melody lines and riffs without fear. Her higher pitched tones bring you through a maze of chimerical stories. See if what she presents to you leads you out into the open or into the shadow of cobwebs tugging at you emotively.

Dead, Black – starts out as if in a funeral march. Forbidden tunes that run through your heart. What child-like thoughts run through your head? Enclosed, you try to escape. Express your desolation. Go to where you can be loved.

Strange Day – electronic voice echoes as if carried on the waves. What images from the darkness can be brought to the light. Are they wise or full of lies? A deserted and unused place. Harmonies tell us of strangeness and drift away bringing strength. The waves crash.

Primroses – Just a voice asks questions about how you feel and what makes you feel that way. It’s like a child taking you by the hand to comfort you and waiting for the answers. Do you just blow in the breeze like a flower or wilt? A child with wisdom.

Fortune Favours – Who are privileged and who are not? What are their fates? Drum beating slowly, a piano tinged with a guitar. More than a roundelay but sounding like one. Music accents the ending and shows those who are favored.

Ghosts - Seeing what is thought to be seen and wished for but are surrounded by. Beautiful thought out scenes near the shore with etherical substance. 'Skimming stones across your bones".

This is just the beginning. Stay tuned. Exciting new songs are in store. She is sure not to disappoint.
