Full list of dates below.
‘The Commons’ single was written and recorded by Oisin, Robbie and Ross after finding a letter on the table of an empty train carriage traveling from Dublin to the midlands, the song was written before the train journey was over. The song written from a place of empathy and reflection upon finding the heartbreaking letter that unveiled a mothers devastation over the loss of her young son to suicide. ..‘I’ll leave a letter on a train ..No date , No name ..For a stranger to turn and read ..And for a moment, I'll be free’
On writing this song, they say ‘The subject matter of suicide will always be a difficult topic to discuss, let alone write about - but the letter only highlighted the many friends, students and family members whose lives have been affected by suicide. The song's title, ‘The Commons’ shows the unfortunate familiarity of the topic in question. Picturing that ‘common’ area - whether it be the green of a housing estate, a local park,or a football field where kids and teenagers meet to play. ‘The Commons’ was not written to try and shed light on any solution or agenda, rather it is the expression of a feeling at a given time. The song, the letter and the topic itself are undeniably sad, but the ultimate feeling leaving that train carriage was of hope and the instrumental at the end of ‘The Commons’ is the musical expression of that hope’
‘The Commons’ EP is out on Friday November 1st, it includes the title track and previously releases single ‘Little White Chapel’
