A Penny for the Week – A Working Man’s Folk Song

Stone & Shamrock – A Penny for the Week | Official Lyric Video

Description:
A Penny for the Week is a slow, honest working-class folk song about survival without romance. Set on a worn factory floor, it follows men who trade their bodies for time, their silence for bread, and their pride for another day of work.

There are no heroes here — only endurance. The song moves at the pace of labor itself: heavy, repetitive, and unglamorous, carried by a voice shaped by years of hard work, cold mornings, and quiet dignity.

The Studio Insight:
This track was recorded with restraint at its core. Acoustic guitar, long silences, and a close-mic vocal were chosen to let every breath and crack remain. No polish, no performance — just a man telling the truth as it comes.

Stone & Shamrock quietly blends traditional folk storytelling with modern creative tools, used only to shape atmosphere and structure while keeping the human weight untouched.
