Aoife Donovan: Blurring Lines Between Poetry and Music in ‘Bulls Frog Croons’

Editing and revision can be a very different process altogether. In some aspects, revision is all about envisioning and getting key insights from the poem itself. Believe it or not, but poems start in imagination and end there as well. The process is best done by looking for an exact folk singer/songwriter who can bring a poem to life. Aoife O’Donovan’s, three of five tracks on her new EP- ‘Bull Frogs Croon” is the adaption of Sear’s poems. Today, you can listen to a studio version of songs. 

Aoife O’Donovan was hired/commissioned to create a musical art piece for Britt Festival Symphony with Teddy Abrams. Teddy is the youngest conductor of a major orchestra in the United States Of America. He is also the one who helps the artist to break free from barriers. Teddy suggested to Aoife to look into the current poet laureate of the state of Oregon. Aoife found her inspiration within a text and everything else unfolded pretty naturally. Needless to mention, poems and songs are two very different genres. In poems, you cannot change anything you like. Or repeat anything whenever it suits you. On the other hand, in songs, you can play with rhymes and melodies. If you want more people to listen to your music then you have to make sure that you keep an unbreakable connection to its origin. Overall, Bull Frogs Croon is a premium collection of Sear’s visions as a poet and O’Donovan’s vision as a songwriter.

EVERY POP SONG SINGS DOWN INTO YOUR BRAIN AND IT ASKS YOUR BRAIN TO QUIT ITS VERY THINKING. POP TUNES TELL YOUR EYE TO STOP ITS LOOKING, TELL YOUR HAND TO STOP REACHING, YOUR NOSE TO SMELL THINGS THAT AREN'T THERE, AND YOUR MOUTH TO STOP ITS TASTING. AND ITS YELLING AND ITS CUSSING. POP TUNES ARE BOUGHT AND PAID FOR TO KEEP DOWN THE MOST NATURAL AND NATIVE GIFTS AND TALENTS OF YOUR HUMAN MIND, TO KEEP YOU FROM LOOKING UNDER THE HOOD OF YOUR OWN CAR AND SINGING OUT WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE ENGINE.
