Tipperary, artist Bright Falls who has released the Heartland Rock tune ‘The Widows Homes’
The Widows Homes’ is a melancholic heartland rock song with 80’s style synth sounds mixed with swirling Leslie guitar tones, produced/mixed & mastered by Martin Quinn at JAM Studios (Aine Cahill, The Strypes).
The song recounts the aftermath of a love lost. The verses detailing the house in which the couple once shared together, which has now become derelict, symbolic of the relationship that the two share.
The chorus sees the protagonist long for a reconciliation of the relationship which they know will never return, providing a sing along hook among the hopeless desperation the protagonist endures. ‘the Widows Homes’ is a heartbreaking tale that is both musically and lyrically refined.
This story of anguish and torment is underlined by the lyric in the chorus: “I’d lay that old hourglass, on its side, so time stands still”.
“As catchy as you-know-what but far less harmful” – Tony Clayton-Lea
