Making a point to highlight mental health as the backbone to his work and using his fast rising platform to raise awareness and forge unity.
On his latest single “Darkness Before Light” he explains"I wanted to experiment with something sonically different from just R&B and pop whilst staying close to my roots.
The writing was easy, I had been listening to a lot of old Irish folk hymes and wanted to create an introduction that was similar with just vocals. there was something really powerful about that to me. Just singing from the heart about all the shit and dark memories from the past. I envisioned there being this build up with live violins and guitars that would just drop into this beat. I started watching some performances from artists and bands that inspired me performing at stadiums and festivals like Coachella, Rock in Rio and Glastonbury. I remember thinking, I want to create this live energy in my song, I want it to feel like this could be played at a stadium anywhere in the world and people could identify with it. Darkness Before Light is a special song for me. It has many meanings and I hope people like it."
