about

‘Sinners Sing’ unfolds a compelling narrative set against the vibrant backdrop of Dalston, London, where a wave of prodigiously talented musicians coalesce. This tale is woven through the dimly lit stages of iconic venues like The Shacklewell Arms and The Moth Club. Yet, amidst the fervour of creativity and the rush of applause, a darker undercurrent prevails. The protagonists of our story are ensnared in a tumultuous dance with drugs and alcohol, a misguided quest to fill the gaping chasms of solitude and the hunger for authentic connections that elude them. As days blur into nights with no end, they lose sight of time, and their reality fades into a haze.

Yet, ‘Sinners Sing’ is not a tale of condemnation but a poignant reflection, a clarion call that echoes the desperate need for understanding and intervention. It's an introspective look into the shadows that lurk behind the glamour, where the echo of the last note fades into silence.

With ‘Sinners Sing,’ Anto Dust returns, offering more than just a song; it's a profound showcase of Anto Dust's innate gift for storytelling through music. This hit isn't just heard; it's felt, a powerful testament to the raw, unfiltered essence of life behind the scenes, demanding our attention and empathy.

lyrics

Sinners Sing


Dawn is the stealer of time
When the day crashes on us
And we must put in order
The chaos of the night

Stand guard once more
Ready for life
Don't drift ashore
Baby come by

Watch you fall asleep
In and out of a dream
Tell me, have you been to the other side?
Won't you sing me please that song I like
'Wild is The Wind'
And I burn inside

Or tell another lie..
But baby come by


Words, like rays of light
In the mouths of those getting high
Thoughts are crystallised
Set in ink, a burden, the skin

Stand proud once more
Cold is the night
I sleep alone
God on my side

Watch the City sink
down
and down on its knees
All the sinners sing
"Can I have a line?"
“Won't you give me please all the money now?”
"Just crush another pill, we'll be just fine."

Or tell yourself a lie
But baby come by...

Wednesday, just after Tuesday
It's Wednesday, ‘come down’ again
Wednesday, a day after Tuesday 

Oh Wednesday may never begin...

Stand proud once more
Cold is the night
I sleep alone
God on my side

Watch the river bleed bold and bright while you sleep
All the winners win 

What I’ve lost is time
Won’t you read me please that book I like
‘Tender is the Night’
And my roses die


I Tell myself a lie
Baby come by…
