Gotta Tell You: Irish Pop in a Pandemic

I’m hoping to post a lot more in 2021, even if nobody is reading!

I’ve got some nice songs lined up for the next few days but, before then, I wanted to share something that I was very fortunate to work on back in September.

‘Gotta Tell You: Irish Pop in a Pandemic’ features music and chat from Irish popstars CMAT, Jack Rua, PureGrand and Gold Blooded Woman.

Introducing: PureGrand

Part of a new wave of Irish artists pushing pop music in interesting directions, PureGrand is the musical alter-ego of Dubliner Luke Faulkner.

Latest single Timeline, written and produced by Faulkner, teams nostalgic musical influences with more contemporary lyrical concerns of millennial isolation.

Faulkner’s dynamic vocal delivery is star of the show and parts of the song remind me of nineties George Michael, which is one of the highest compliments I could possibly pay.

I hope my tumblr is living up to Luke Faulkner's high standards...
