Hi friends! My upload schedule went out the window (again) so here's an original round I put together before I had to get dental surgery lol. No singing for me til I'm fully healed (and motivated to record more frequently!) I miss my channel a lot, but we all know how 2020's been so here's a lil postcard from me. Take care and keep fighting. Say a prayer and get on the train. x

Here is a sad bop about being haunted by someone who is still alive and wondering if you ever actually mattered to them at all. Let me know what you think! x

Our girl dodie snapped so fucking hard when she wrote Boys Like You that I’m pretty sure the first time I heard it my soul left my body and I haven’t been the same since. Alright fine, you got me-- I’m being a BIT dramatic, but y’know what? This song is a bop and the music video makes me wish I could dance. Hope you enjoy my folky little version of it. Let me know what you think! x

I felt like writing a song so I decided to film myself going through the process! I did the “Writing a song in 15 minutes challenge” a couple years ago and this is sort of along the same vein. Feel free to skip ahead to about 6:00 for the actual song. Hope you are doing okay or at least trying to be. Take care. x

Anyone else look back on a time that felt like the end of the world and realize that it wasn’t? I wrote this song after I lost my job back in 2016 and it felt like things were never gonna be okay ever again. I got back on my feet eventually and everything that happened afterwards led me to where I am now, but it still hurts sometimes. Just a tiny bit. But that’s okay. Enjoy the scenery and take a deep breath. Hope you’re all hanging in there as best you can. x

Hi friends. Here’s a short, lighthearted video I put together about what I’ve been up to while staying inside. I am currently on Day 8 of quarantine. I have no clue when I’m going back to work, but in the meantime I will continue to mess around on the internet. I hope you are all safe. Take care of yourselves and each other. x

The world is more exhausting than ever right now, but here's a song I wrote at the beginning of the year. Let's bring back whatever hope we had for 2020 even if it's only for a few minutes. Or at least try to.

Take care, practice good hygiene, and make sure you’re staying informed via reliable sources. Stay safe. x

Hello friends! I decided to take a quick break from sharing my songs and recorded a cover of kindergarten by chloe moriondo. This song is gorgeous and already hella soft so naturally (with how I sing) I only made it softer lolol. Take a listen if you like, enjoy the visuals, and check out the actual song if you haven’t already; Chloe is an angel. Take care. x

I’ve Got You | original ukulele song

Happy belated Valentine’s Day! The dodie vibes are strong with this song, but I’m totally okay with that because it turned out to be really fun, lighthearted little bop. I hope that even if you spent the 14th feeling “forever alone” know that you got through it, you matter, and you are loved. Take care of yourselves and let me know what you think if you take a listen! x

Write This Down (original ukulele song) 

This song's about realizing you're not who you used to be when you were younger and neither is anyone else around you. You've grown, changed, and have been broken one too many times. You're a little wiser now, but that constant quarter-life crisis is yelling at you from the back of your mind and all of a sudden you're not sure if you're burning out or burning bright. Maybe both.

If you dig it, feel free to reblog and let me know what you think! x

Rabbit Hole (original ukulele song) 

Here’s my first original song of 2020! I don’t think I’ve ever written a tune where the chorus ended up being the first thing you hear so I had fun playing with the structure a little bit. Overall, I’m super proud of this one. The lyrics fell out of me last September and I’ve been singing it to myself ever since. I’m finally ready to share it and I thought I’d start out my year of sharing originals with a bang. 

Let me know what you think! xxx

I hope you come with me. 

i am proud to announce that i have decided to rebrand and change my artist/band name from “light and rebellion” to “sleeping colours.” in case you need more answers, here’s why i was gone and where i’m going with my channel now. i’ve never been more excited about what i’ve been creating, the new name i’ve picked, and i can’t wait to start sharing more. see you next week. x

Why Am I Like This? - Orla Gartland | cover

this song is such a friggin’ bop. it resonated with me from the moment i read the title and i still love it so much. here’s my version of it; a little less haunting than the original of course, but i tried my best. hope you like it!
