New Irish Releases

Áine Cahill – Water Into Wine Released: October 12, 2018. For Fans Of: Saint Sister, Gabrielle Aplin. This is a lovely little song. I’m not usually one for pop music but Cavan-native Áine Cahill’s newest single has wormed its way in to my current playlist. It’s catchy, melodic and empowering. If you’re into the likes of Gabrielle Aplin, Saint Sister or Wyvern Lingo, I think you’ll like Áine Cahill’s music. I for one, am excited to hear what else she has to offer.  Ghostking Is Dead – This Is Doubt Released: October 17, 2018.For Fans Of: Yenkee, Kojaque.Highlights: Hollow, It’s Over.This Is Doubt, the sophomore EP from Cork-native Matt Corrigan a.k.a Ghostking Is Dead is ultimately a showcase of his growth over the past nine months since the release of his debut EP Sweet Boy. It features single “Tokyo” – remastered from an earlier version. Another track, “Burn Out” features fellow Hausu Records comrade Automatic Blue. Overall? A well-rounded, if somewhat melancholic, compilation.  Bitch Falcon – Prime Number Released: October 19, 2018. For Fans Of: Chelsea Wolfe, Pillow Queens. This latest release from Dublin band Bitch Falcon is, from the very first note of the song, the epitome of their sound. Lizzie Fitzpatrick’s chaotic and gritty vocals are unmistakeable. “Prime Number” comes as a follow up to their self-titled EP released earlier this year which I’m hoping means there’s an album on the way…or at least another EP. The accompanying music video is weird as heck. This combined with their heavy sound makes for the perfect October release.
