Lyrics of Brennan Gilmore – New Sudan
I remember the village, by the riverside And my mother’s yellow dress, where I used to hide. Now the sun shines on me, for all to see No dress to hide behind, not the place to be.
I might not make it through, I’m not the only one Soldiers at the border like to have their fun. There are no free riders, there’s no easy way Lie down on the desert sands, until I’m blown away.
Oh my sister, where are you now? Dear brother, have you been found?
Heard my brother’s in the city, I made it just halfway Drawn in by the fires, in the camps I stayed. Someday we’ll all be together, those cooking fires will die I will meet my sister, and hold her when she cries.
Oh my sister, where are you now? Dear brother, have you been found?
And when the night comes, blackbirds fill the sky A million stars where I can hide
Can’t answer when you ask me, no way to understand Lie down by the riverside, in the New Sudan. Walk all night on the cattle path, never see a light Past or present I cannot tell, hope I get it right.
Oh my sister, where are you now? Dear brother, have you been found?
My sister, where are you now? Dear brother, have you been found?

Lyrics of Cat Rose Smith – Green
I’ll remember you in green, my love It’s not fair the way the seasons turn us Round and round again Do you love me like you did, that When the river rushed And I was something new
CHORUS Nobody wants to grieve, do they? Nobody wants to leave only memories All of the branches bare, baby But I believe in green Oh I believe in green
If I take my body back to that Quiet pond which once reflected open souls To me Will my bones and skin and teeth Remember All the magic that once came so easily
CHORUS Nobody wants to grieve, do they? Nobody wants to leave only memories All of the branches bare, baby But I believe in green Oh I believe in green

Lyrics of Dan Olsen – Clear as Glass
VERSE 1 Kinda strange to feel like enough My, my Something inside finally went soft Light, light Spinning out, then making the jump High, high
CHORUS 1 Clear as glass Whole at last Dancing ’round Barefoot now Let it lift you off Feel the grass Clear as glass
VERSE 2 Morning light spills across the floor My, my Never saw these colours before Light, light Got no need to hide anymore High, high
CHORUS 2 Clear as glass Whole at last Dancing ’round Barefoot now Let it lift you out Feel the grass Clear as glass
BRIDGE (Instrumental)
CHORUS 3 Clear as glass Whole at last Dancing ’round Clear as glass

Press Release – About Song:
Blending classic country storytelling with a modern-day perspective, the song explores the deeply human tension between temptation and integrity—delivering a message that resonates in today’s fast-paced, always-connected world.
“So I Won’t” tells the story of a man faced with a moment of undeniable temptation. Captivated by someone who feels like everything he’s ever wanted, he imagines all the ways he could reach out—calling, texting, sending a message, even whispering in her ear. But standing firmly in his way are the promises he has already made.
As the narrative unfolds, those wedding vows—for better or worse, forsaking all others—become the emotional anchor that pulls him back from the brink of a life-altering decision. In an era where instant communication makes acting on impulse easier than ever, “So I Won’t” offers a refreshing and powerful reminder: true strength often lies in restraint.
Driven by heartfelt lyrics and grounded in authenticity, the song builds toward its simple yet profound conclusion: “because I shouldn’t… so I won’t.”

“Northwest Stories craft an indie folk daydream on “All In” that drifts somewhere between faded summers and endless countryside roads. The melancholic melody doesn’t simply frame the emotion; it becomes the landscape itself, carrying the song’s warm, fragile vocals through wide-open spaces of nostalgia and quiet longing. Subtle rhythmic shifts keep the track breathing, avoiding the stillness that often traps songs built on atmosphere alone. There’s a gentle cinematic quality running throughout, like the soundtrack to aimless drives at golden hour, where melancholy and hope briefly coexist with effortless grace.”

Lyrics of Northwest Stories – All In
In a way, I feel the same, who could’ve guessed Never been afraid of getting older And I know it’s just a game, I do my best But the time, my dear, ain’t getting slower
Ooh-ooh-ooh I’m all in Ooh-ooh-ooh If you’re all in Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh, I’m calling ‘Cause I’m all in
Knowing every single thing that we know now Would we choose this life or something different If the dregs will always lead to sweetened ground Don’t be bitter, babe, about it Mmm-mmm-mmm
Ooh-ooh-ooh I’m all in Ooh-ooh-ooh If you’re all in Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh, I’m calling ‘Cause I’m all in
Oh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh I’m all in Ooh-ooh-ooh If you’re all in Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh, I’m calling
Ooh-ooh-ooh I’m all in Ooh-ooh-ooh If you’re all in Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh, I’m calling ‘Cause I’m all in
““Moon Spirit” by Ian Arden moves along a dreamlike orbit of romanticism, where the melody acts more as an emotional conduit than a mere composition. A subtle melancholy runs through it without ever becoming heavy—rather, it lingers weightlessly. The vocals, soft and warm, carry an almost tactile quality, as if they gently brush against the space. The rhythm never asserts itself; it flows quietly, shaping an atmosphere that seems to dissolve and re-form, leaving behind a trace of lingering magic.”

““Til We Find Love” by Joe Doonan is a soft, gentle rock ballad whose calm melody feels like a steady hand guiding you forward. It doesn’t rush or demand attention; instead, it walks beside you, becoming a quiet companion on the search for something better — a truer version of yourself and the idea of love itself.
The vocals, with their skilled and expressive tone, carry a sense of honesty that feels unforced and deeply human. There’s a warmth in the delivery, as if every word is meant to be trusted, every emotion lived rather than performed.
The rhythm slowly breathes life into thought, subtle but persistent, shaping a sense of movement beneath the stillness. ”
