about

All proceeds from Bandcamp purchases of "Elevation" from April 27-June 27, 2018 will be donated to Canada's music education charity, MusiCounts.

MusiCounts supports music education programs in schools and communities across Canada, putting instruments in the hands of kids that need them the most.

"I can't tell you enough how much having access to instruments as a child changed my life. I was lucky that way, but of course not everyone is. Providing children a creative outlet is a very, very powerful gift and one that really can keep on giving. Music is the universal language and the more we know, the better we can communicate." - Marlon Chaplin

"Elevation" is the first single off of Marlon Chaplin's forthcoming debut LP 'The Circle', which will be released via Mӧbius Recordings in August.

"It's about seizing the day, not being afraid to own who and what you are. Go out and get it. Live large. Elevate yourself" - Marlon Chaplin


The album was produced by Chaplin, mixed by Chris Shaw (Partner, Weezer, Bob Dylan) and mastered by Joao Carvalho. It's a ten-track strong, arena-ready rock 'n' roll record.

lyrics

Let a little light shine through,
Like the way you used to do,
Get a little action in,
You know it’s only up to you,

I keep on fading in a lover’s look,
Letting some fable keep me on the hook,
Nothing’s gonna stop me now,
I’m gonna break through somehow,

Did someone ever clip your wings?
Promised what they’d never bring?
Let a little light shine in,
Even if you’re scared to sing,

I keep on falling for a lover’s stare,
Letting it down ‘til I’m all laid bare,
Nothing’s gonna stop me now,
I’m gonna get through somehow,

Let it all in,
Let it all in,
The world is waiting for you,
In a moment you can change,
A moment you can age,
So set the dials to elevate,

Let a little light shine through,
Like the way you used to do,
Get a little action in,
You know it’s only up to you,

I keep on fading in a lover’s look,
Letting some fable keep me on the hook,
But nothing’s gonna stop me now,
I’m gonna break through somehow,

Let it all in,
Let it all in,
The world is waiting for you,
In a moment things can change,
A moment you can age,
So set the dials to elevate,

Let it all in,
Let it all in,
The world is waiting for you,
In a moment you can change,
A moment you can age,
So set the dials to elevate,

Let a little light shine through,
Let a little light shine through,
Let a little light shine through,
Even if you’re scared to.
