Great name for a band
Downright Allowance
The story
Downright Allowance is a four-piece indie rock band that originated in the small town of Monaghan, Ireland, back in 2011. The band members, Collin (vocals and guitar), Rhys (guitar), Finn (bass), and Sean (drums), were high school friends who shared a deep passion for music. They would often come together in Sean's father's barn, jamming to their favorite tunes, and eventually, they began writing original music. The band took off after their participation in a local battle of the bands competition, where their unique sound and raw energy caught the attention of an independent record label scout attending the event.
The name Downright Allowance originated from the guys' devotion to being authentic, embracing imperfections, and allowing themselves to create music that resonates with their experiences and emotions. They believe in the powerful expression of raw emotions in their songs. They've toured across Europe and America, gained a significant fan base, released two albums, and are currently working on their third.
Embers and Echoes
Verse 1 In the quiet of the night, under city lights, We walked hand in hand, time was on our side. Swept by the wind, our stories begin, With embers in our eyes, echoes in our minds. Chorus Embers and echoes, dreams and shadows, Our love was like a fire, burning wild and free. Through pain and sorrow, today and tomorrow, Your voice is my echo, your heart, my embers be. Verse 2 In the blur of the crowd, where voices are loud, I found solace in your eyes, you were my secret hide. We laughed, we cried, we bled, we tried, In embers and echoes, we lived, we died. Chorus Embers and echoes, dreams and shadows, We danced on the edge of reality. Through highs and lows, wherever the wind blows, In embers and echoes, we find our melody. Bridge In the fragments of our love, in the silence of our words, We keep burning, we keep echoing, in the corners of this world. Through the embers and the echoes, through the times we let go, We find ourselves, we find our home. Chorus Embers and echoes, dreams and shadows, Our love was a wildfire, now just a memory. Through the silence and noise, through the gains and loss, In the embers and echoes, we found our symphony. Outro In the quiet of the night, under fading city lights, We're just embers and echoes, fading out of sight. Verse: C – G – Am – F Chorus: G – Am – F – C Bridge: Am – Em – F – C Outro: C – G – Am – F
