Download on iTunes: bit.ly Links: twitter.com/greatlakeswim www.facebook.com/greatlakeswimmers "Pulling On A Line" Lyrics: The line runs through like a train in a book Or metres underwater, ending with a hook It sways in the air when there's wind enough to lift, The fine ones are boundaries when There is a rift I'm just pulling on a line, on a line I'm just pulling on a line I'm just pulling on a line, on a line Sometimes it pulls on me The line, it inks across the freshly fallen snow, Where only those embracing coldness would go It whistles and it whispers, and sometimes it howls, anekatips.com It sings to me sweetly from the trees and in vowels I'm just pulling on a line, on a line I'm just pulling on a line I'm just pulling on a line, on a line, And sometimes it pulls on me The line, it writes itself across the dark sky, In the electric flushes ending with a sigh It weaves itself into a fabric so true and flows just like the river, graceful and blue I'm just pulling on a line, on a line, I'm just pulling on a line I'm just pulling on a line, on a line And sometimes it pulls on me Distributed in the US by WMG.. + Informações

And read the patterns on my skin Let the fire somehow get in See my heart-line is intact So this is what I lacked Won't you come and read the future, turn it on Won't you tell me how I will not feel so lonely?

They're a beautiful example of early Israeli-Yemenite art. As soon as I saw them I knew I had to animate them. They had been in storage for years so it meant a great deal to bring them out and breathe life into them. This was an opportunity to not only contribute to his work, but also expose it to the audience it never had. When I heard "River's Edge" I was amazed. It's a great track and the music and lyrics corresponded to the plates perfectly. It was really exciting to see how the visuals complemented the song.". + Informações

Bodies and minds (2005) It goes on forever along the shoreline It never will end on the shores of my mind I travel alongtil the sleep takes me in Where have I ended, where do I begin? Sand blankets are littered with stones whipped across Dead things in the water, forgotten or lost The branches have surfaced and now they are lean The trees have washed up here Stripped bare, and washed clean The waves kiss and gently caress on the shore Kissing and winking, and calling for more The waves like wagging tongues do adore And whisper there softly to the sand on the shore You would be nothing without me I could be nothing Said the waves to the sand I could be nothing without you Each ones shifts and weakens a little Neither aware just how much they are brittle Each one shifts and weakens a bit Allowing the other to live and exist O water and patience, pressure and time Cuts through the faces of rocks we have climbed The army of kisses, the lake never tires The kisses that can put out all of my fires You could be nothing without me I could be nothing Said the waves to the sand I could be nothing without you Without you, I would be nothing Without me, you could be nothing Said the waves to the sand I could be nothing without you. + Informações

Great Lake Swimmers is a Canadian indie folk band which formed in 2003 in Wainfleet, Ontario, Canada. The band began with Tony Dekker (vocals, guitar, harmonica), Erik Arneson (banjo, guitar, harmonium), Bret Higgens (bass), Julie Fader (keyboards, vocals) and Greg Millson (drums). Julie Fader subsequently left, and Miranda Mulholland, on violin and backing vocals, joined. Fifty-five years ago, Marilyn Bell took a plunge and traversed Lake Ontario. Back then, being a Great Lake swimmer was a big deal; now, it's an astonishing physical feat taken for granted. It's a rapidly forgotten part of history, like a faded map or a tattered photograph. Or a lost channel. Tony Dekker's Great Lake Swimmers have spent the past seven years performing on stages around the world - though, like Bell, they should never be taken for granted. LOST CHANNELS, their fourth album set for release on March 31st, finds them once again recording at historic locations. This time in the Thousand Islands region of Ontario and New York state, telling tales of hidden histories, still "mining for light in the dark wells," still "tuned to an instrument of greater and unknown design." The instrument in question is the singular voice of Tony Dekker, a voice that summons ghosts from times past.. + Informações

Great Lake Swimmers - New Wild Everywhere [Full Length Studio Performance] New Wild Everywhere - 04/03/2012 Filmed by Stephen Chung 'New Wild Everywhere' - 04/03/2012 Available at iTunes -www.itunes.com On Tour Now - CAN, USA, GBR, FRA www.facebook.com Could you tell us a little about the new album? It's the 5th GLS album, but our first proper studio album. We recorded it at a new studio in Toronto called Revolution Recording. It was a new challenge for us, because up until now we've gotten used to recording everything in fairly unconventional locations using relatively basic setups. Although, we also did three days of recording in a disused TTC subway station for this record, which yielded the song "The Great Exhale" and it ended up making it onto the album. But for the most part, we were working in a closed environment and could really focus on the songs. It was a really positive experience.

Artist: The Great Lake Swimmers Song: Changing Colours Album: ONGIARA Release Date: 11/2007 Official Website: www.greatlakeswimmers.com Lyrics You look at me with uncertainty, You look at me with urgency. You look at me with fear in your eyes like you're about to fall away. But don't be afraid to change your colours now. I've known you all Summer, and you rose above it all. I see you hesitate to fall now, But it's a pretty good view from down here, too. And when the wind takes you, it takes me, too. When you change colours, I change mine, too. Try not to think, and I will try to. When you let go, I will let go, too. I knew you when you were green and strong. You were like a feather on a wing, so long. You know I will miss you when you are gone, but don't be afraid if you just can't hang on. Cause when the wind takes you, it takes me, too. When you change colours, I change mine, too. Try not to think and I will try, too. And when you let go, I will let go, too. The cold air is pushing hard on you. I know what you're saying; I can feel it, too. You'll go through changes, and I'll go through them too. Don't be afraid now, don't be afraid. 'Cause when the wind takes you, it takes me, too. When you change colours, I change mine, too. Try not to think and I will try, too. And when you let go, I will let go, too. + Informações
