Sounds | Davy Lyons - Amen

John Van de Mergel

Vijf rustige sounds stukken na elkaar, ik denk dat ik een beetje een mellow momentje heb.

Ook deze Ierse singer-songwriter (en zoveel meer) weet me met zijn liedjes te raken. Bedoeling was eigenlijk het nieuwere Quiet In The Morning in de kijker te zetten. Dat nummer pakt me nog net iets meer, maar had geen video, dus ... Beide nummers hebben het van schaars ingezette strijkers, flutes en piano en natuurlijk die tijdloze stem van Lyons, die ergens een sfeer uit de jaren zeventig weet op te roepen.


The Human Factor verschijnt in februari 2023 bij King Forward Records.

Davy Lyons is an Irish songwriter, musician, poet, and actor. Family gatherings in his childhood, where music was always vital, are the root of his creative endeavours. His first dream was to become a professional footballer. Having completed Masters degree in law at University College Dublin, Lyons abandoned the gavel for the guitar and began a spiritual journey across Europe that brought him to live and make wine in a Tuscan castle and stay for four months in the mythic Parisian bookshop, Shakespeare & Co.


In 2016, he moved to Barcelona where he began playing on the street. His live shows developed a reputation as intense, binding, and unique experiences for the audience, an intimate journey where words and melodies come together, where silences are allowed to reverberate. Sound poems written with the fountain pen of Lyons’ soul with brushstrokes of folk, jazz, and gypsy added by his band.


In 2019 he released his first album, Evidence. ’Amen’ is the first offering from his second record, ‘The Human Factor’ produced by compatriot David Duffy. The album will be released in Feb 2023 with Dutch label King Forward Records. facebook
