Point of No Return

When we were but a young band, we wouldn’t have thought to stick around for so long. In the back of our minds, we’re just having a great time playing the music we like. It feels almost like a million dreams ago when we did our first blow. Now, over fifty tunes later, we’re still …

Raven’s Jig – A Time for Us (on-vocal)

Fun fact : Agathe almost cried while singing the vocal arrange of this song. Our arrange of 1968 Romeo and Juliet’s A Time For Us, by Nino Rota, speaks not of love, but of the gap between a normal, peaceful life and a life full of adventure but also danger and a sense of deep …

Raven’s Jig – Leçon de Franglais

This is a spin on a song most likely best known by the French: ‘For Me, Formidable’ by Charles Aznavour. The original song features a pun-filled mix of French and English to which we decided to pay homage by writing our own lyrics… With possibly a more absurd twist, if that can every be. It …

Raven’s Jig – Ravens in Paradise

Released in the peaceful days between late spring and early summer, this song was intended to sound as sunny as bright blue skies. Much like someone would rely on classical music or golden oldies to relax, we decided to bring our own, raven-marked lyrics to a classic from 50s musical Kismet, itself inspired by Borodin’s …
