Jinder
Jinder (born 19 April 1981 in Oxfordshire, England) is an English singer/songwriter and guitarist. He is best known for his extensive dark folk-and-country-influenced solo work, and also his brief tenure as frontman of harmony-driven trio The Mercurymen. A musician from an early age, he turned his attention from piano to guitar at the age of 12, and began a lifelong career in songwriting in his early teens.
Solo work and Candlefire
In the late 1990s, Jinder worked sporadically as a solo artist, before forming alt.indie four-piece Candlefire with Daniel Minshull, Rick Porter and Mark McComish. The band are best remembered for their UK chart single Sorrow Spreads Its Wings, released by One Little Indian Records in 2002. The single entered the UK indie chart at #17, and the mainstream chart at #97, dropping out of the top 100 the week after. Following the band's departure from the label in 2003, Jinder left Candlefire in order to pursue other musical directions. During Jinder's time with Candlefire, he also continued his sporadic solo work, appearing live on a short solo tour and releasing solo recording The Dusty Roads EP. Memorable Candlefire appearances under the management of David Duggan's Mostly Music Management include several UK tours and Candlefire's by-request performance at Coldplay's aftershow party following their Madison Square Garden show in New York City.

Summer Night In Seattle
by: Jenna DreyAnother magical day
The sun reflects on your face
Your eyes they sparkle like the clear blue sky.
The breeze is calling our name
You wrap your arms around my waist
I rest my head on your shoulder, you hold me till the world stops spinning
Whisper close, and as the sunset fades
This feeling that takes over me is like a sudden rush of Ecstasy
Like a summer night in Seattle
When you kiss me under the moonlight.
Let the raindrops fall all around us,
As I sail on the wake of your love.
In your arms I'm closest to heaven
When we're dancin' under the moonlight
And the stars keep glowing like candles
Like a summer night in Seattle.
And when the winter's begun
Our hearts stay warm as the sun
Just like the evergreens, our love doesn't fade,
It lasts forever.
Close my eyes, and as the snowflakes fall
The memories all rush back to me like a never-ending fantasy.
Like a summer night in Seattle
When you kiss me under the moonlight.
Let the raindrops fall all around us,
As I sail on the wake of your love.
In your arms I'm closest to heaven
When we're dancin' under the moonlight
And the stars keep glowing like candles
Like a summer night in Seattle.
This feeling that takes over me is like a sudden rush of Ecstasy
Like a summer night in Seattle
When you kiss me under the moonlight.
Let the raindrops fall all around us,
As I sail on the wake of your love.
In your arms I'm closest to heaven
When we're dancin' under the moonlight
And the stars keep glowing like candles
Like a summer night in Seattle.
Like a summer night in Seattle
When you kiss me under the moonlight.
Let the raindrops fall all around us,
