Being sick is terrible. I've been fighting something nasty since Tuesday. Luckily the worst was out of the way fast - after recording a 101 degree temperature Tuesday night, the fever subsided and I've slowly returned to a state that's manageable. I was still a bit stuffed up on the 25th, but by 10pm all that was left was sniffling and the occasional cough - my regular voice was back. On November 25, I decided to do something a little different. Not only would I tell a few stories about [...]
A Singer of Songs - Early Morning Light A Singer of Songs just put out a full album of outtakes, rarities and shy recordings, and this track is one of them. It is also a track that we´ll be playing together in Madrid tonight (with Benjamin Shaw and coffee&wine ). Maybe we´ll see you tonight, or maybe we´ll see you at one of the other nights of the European tour ? Or maybe [...]
A Singer of Songs - Shine Here's the lovely new tune A Singer of Songs recently put up on his Tumblr . Perhaps this will be on the set list when we go on our little European tour? asingerofsongs : Some songs just pop out. You pick on the guitar or hum in the shower or wrestle with the bed sheets on a sleepless night and all of sudden there it is. Like an unexpected visitor who has brought [...]
A Singer of Songs - Ruins Of You It's been awhile since I did a Tumblr Tuesday post. So here is one. Lieven (aka A Singer Of Songs) now has a tumblr. So give him a follow and in return, he'll give you some songs and stories. asingerofsongs : It had been a while since something like this had happened. Life has been quite hectic and loud and fast. Too much so to sit down and [...]
One of the tricky things for bands who got used to using Myspace as their main connection point...
Here is a video that Aubben (aka Craven Canary ) and Lieven (aka A Singer of Songs ) recorded back in the autumn of last year, a video that I have been meaning to share for quite some time. They recorded the track in preparation for their first show together, in a house somewhere in Tennessee. And then, a little after that house show, the three of us met up in the windy city. Oh nostalgia, where have you been? The song was originally recorded with Hollie (aka Tiny Ruins ) handling the [...]

![Tiny Ruins & A Singer Of Songs: Little Notes [mp3]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3077453_lg.jpg)
Imagine a quiet backdrop of country, colorful and vivid. Across it, a soft acoustic guitar whispers a catchy finger-plucked melody. Tiny Ruins & A Singer Of Songs creates such a landscape with minimal accompaniment and deep, quivering vocals. "Little Notes" is the first tune of the duo's first release, an EP of the same name. It is haunting, light folk, both endearing and emotive. In these songs, Hollie Fullbrook (Tiny Ruins) and Lieven Scheerlinck (A Singer Of Songs) join together to paint a [...]
Tiny Ruins & a Singer of Songs - Little Notes This song, accompanied with this picture and whilst reading this quote from Folk Radio UK … Well suited to the cold, dark nights of the winter months this is a slow burner, perhaps a background listen at first but like the vocals that unravel and wrap around you tugging on your thoughts; it's one that will refuse to let go until properly digested. [...]
Tweet Underused Records and Hi54Lofi Records will release a folky gem in December, "Little Notes" , a collaboration between two of my favourites, Tiny Ruins and a Singer of Songs . Some of you may remember Hollie Fullbrook from Tiny Ruins' amazing vocals on EardrumsPop's compilation "Between Two Waves", where she participated as Pix & Hollie [...]
I think there are two ways to really get to know someone: you can talk to them or you can ask...
Giuseppe, che ha l'orecchio attento per certe cose, ne parlò in tempi non sospetti. Non che adesso li siano (i tempi, sospetti), ma il nome di Lieven Scheerlinck, belga trapiantato a Barcellona, inizia a girare con maggiore convinzione. Nel vecchio post presentazione e premessa ad una storia che si annuncia molto importante. Qui un estratto [...]
a singer of songs provides me with a double dose of my song of the day and in turn I am passing it on to all of you. Lieven Scheerlinck (the singer of these songs) is no stranger to Slowcoustic as he was one of the first artists I featured back in September of 2008 (you can see it with a couple of early tracks HERE ). Lieven has just released his first full length album on HI54LOFI Records a couple of weeks back and it is definitely a hushed and intimate experience. The album is overflowing [...]

E' solo un cantante di canzoni, come lo era anche The Man In Black, che usò la canzone scritta da Tim O'Connell, "A Singer of Songs" come proprio, dolorosissimo, epitaffio nell'album "Unearthed". E in un mondo in cui vogliamo, dobbiamo, possiamo sapere tutto di tutti è in un certo modo confortante ignorare completamente la storia del [...]
So I have been out of the loop a bit with the holidays and such, and I have been a bit behind on catching up with what is going on in the world of music blogging lately, but here we go on another "New on the 'Nets this week" post. ~~ Received my copy of A Singer of Songs new album "I Dig for Gold" which is readily available on his MySpace page HERE . Simply drop him a line and get a FREE CD download , now [...]
-<finally getting around to uploading the sister post of my You Crazy Dreamers write up of a Singer of Songs. My apologies to Lieven and you readers, see below. FYI - both posts include "Joy of a Solitary Man" and one track not included on the others blog's post - this one being "Souvenirs"!>- So another day of scouring the web for some good music and actually a day that I found something special. Of all places, on MySpace (it isn't all that bad after all, I guess…) I have found an artist that [...]
So another day of scouring the web for some good music and actually a day that I found something special. Of all places, on MySpace (it isn't all that bad after all, I guess…) I have found an artist that represents perfectly my preference of the hushed and unhurried sound. Everyone, I give you "a Singer of Songs". More than being a basic description: "a Singer of Songs" is an alias sparse enough for it to be enough for him, fitting from the very first time you [...]
