Gerry Cinnamon - 'Canter'

Playing it live, I’ve said a few times, ‘This is a song about believing in yourself.’ But it's not really, man, because I've never really believed in myself. When you're on a downer and people try and give you advice, it just bounces off, because you're in your own head, and you're in a downward spiral. But what I say is what I would want someone to remind me: If you put the graft in for a full year, within a year, you will be in a better place than you were before. I wrote this about eight years ago, and it was a prediction of when money gets involved in the choices that you start making. ‘They tell me be silent, make paper and do what you’re told’: It’s to do with getting signed. When people throw money at you, it's usually at the sacrifice of something else—usually your character or your moral compass, or your taste. So this is really a call to arms to never change.” The official lyric video of 'Canter' has now had over 12 million views on YouTube since its release in April 2020.

It’s a kind of ode to my hometown, about people that I've grown up with that are ridiculous characters. I play it all over the world, and no matter where I play it, you've got people singing it about their hometown. Now I dedicate it to wherever I am—it went from Glasgow and became something else, which is beautiful. It doesn't matter where I go, I still carry all the scars, the good and the bad, from where I was brought up. Because I love it and hate it at the same time. ‘No’ the best place, but there’s diamonds in the mud.’ No matter where you're from, I think people can relate to that.” In 2014, having sold-out gigs at small venues purely through word of mouth and social media, [14] he was invited to write and perform a song at a rally event in George Square ahead of the referendum on Scottish independence.

In this music game, or in any game, you've got plenty of opportunities to make the wrong choices. ‘Lullaby’ is a projection of my future if I started believing my own hype, started going to all the parties that I get invited to and just became another industry…what’s the word I'm looking for…c*nt. It's a sarcastic take on what musicians are supposed to be. It's also about me as well—there’s my own fears mixed in with it. In 10 years time, if I became a caricature of myself, and became a cliché music person, that would be my outlook. And if it ever gets to that point, then just ‘Sing me to sleep/Sing me a love song’—which is just put me to sleep.” In July 2017, Cinnamon appeared on the King Tut's stage at the TRNSMT festival (a non-camping replacement for T in the Park) on Glasgow Green, [7] again playing to a sizeable and enthusiastic crowd.
