about

A SONG FOR OUR TIMES

Feels Like Rain is the first single to be released from the forthcoming album by Signia Alpha, a music project spearheaded by mult-instrumentalist, Matt Webster.

The lyrics act as a commentary of the times we’re living in,as heating or/and eating becomes a daily concern for many. Add this to a jangly pop tune and maybe we’re closing in on this year’s theme tune.... And despite the drought we were all warned about earlier in the year, it feels like rain.

It features Bradford singer/songwriter Harris on vocals and The Damned’s Paul Gray on bass guitar. Matt Webster plays guitars and drums while Chris Walsh adds touches of flute and renowned jazz musician Keith Jafrate adds saxophone.

Available to stream/download on all usual formats; Apple, Amazon, Bandcamp, Spotify, Tidal, Youtube etc.

lyrics

As the leaves turn to log fire red
Sunlight more precious by the day
Grey green dry stone
A dull and cloudy sky
It feels like rain
The wind tears right through you
It splits you in two
I'm old and getting colder
Got holes in my shoes
Traffic with tempers
A heart full of shame
Standing at the kirbside
I wish for a change
It feels like rain

An ill will tears through you
It splits you in two
Eating or heating
Sipping soupstone stew
Counting out the penny
There's nothing coming in
It feels like rain

As my thoughts return again to finding rent
Black mould creeping up the crumbling walls
Too much pressure
Battle lines are drawn
It feels like rain

Ill will tears through you
Laughing at you
The callous getting colder
I don't care for you
Queuing for the foodbank
Chewing swallowed pride
Their gravy train just passed me by
It feels like rain

It never rains but it pours on me
It feels like rain
