Sleeping Years - Were Becoming Islands One By One

2008 debut album from the Sleeping Years, the new project from Dale Grundle, formerly of the Catchers. We're Becoming Islands One By One is a gorgeous exploration of melody and melancholy. A gifted lyricist, Dale's exquisitely crafted songs tell of people trying to stay connected in a world seemingly designed to keep them apart. He is heavily influenced by the language and culture of his home in Ireland, providing a distinct character to this highly personal collection of songs. Dale started the Sleeping Years with a trilogy of EPs in 2007, 'You and Me Against the World', 'Setting Fire to Sleepy Towns' and 'Clocks and Clones'. These were very well received and are very much living proof that independent singles do sell-out. Rocket Girl.
