One Dark Morning

About Me

Tim Downey has been working hard writing some new broody pop songs. The Little Souls bring these songs to life and together they put on a charming live show in which Tim sings his little heart out every time.

Tim's debut EP Little Souls was released last year. The record is a richly layered and textured affair with broody melodies popping up everywhere. Tim played the guitars, the keys, the drums and the bass. The violins, cello, backing vocals and the horns were played by friends. The songs delve into darkness and light dealing in the divine, dreams, fear, seasons, beauty, time, fine print and one way streets.
