PrYmary Colours
The Movement
Positive change


You've seen them at Electric Picnic, Body and Soul, Life and Forbidden Fruit, Mother Pride, Love Sensation, New York's House of Yes, the Dublin Olympia, and now Sound Read Six. Ireland's PrYmary Colours are a great stage act with a catchy feel-good sound. This latest track wants to get the ball rolling in the right direction for society as a whole. So many traumas lie beneath the surface which manifest in cruelty and misunderstandings. It's time to dig them up and put them in their rightful places. Behind us. Irish Times New Act Of The Week two times over, and with over 13,000 monthly listeners on Spotify alone, PrYmary Colours push forward The Movement.


A breezy section of pipes and flutes bring out a fun and melodious introduction. Rhythm rises with hand claps and thumping bass. The vocal hits with a fiery delivery. Attitude and intensity swoosh through the vocals as funky chords and bass lift the song to a dancing energy. Harmonies and rhythm shifts over silky breaks give this track a momentous character as disco sensations and easy to find rhythms bash the feet to progressive compositions. Anthemic and empowering, it's an irresistible power song for those who are looking for big changes.

Mia Hope
See Ya
London


Always a dancer, Mia Hope was shuffling her feet as soon as she could walk. It didn't take long for her innate abilities to become the direction for her future. Studying at the Sylvia Young Theatre School, Mia Hope established herself as a talented and hard-working professional. Now she writes her own material, inspired by heroes such as Amy Winehouse and Lady Gaga, Mia Hope's uplifting personality shines through as she pens music to the style of pop and disco-house.


With a flurry of vocals, beats and synth break the scene and the tempo revs to a catchy groove. Mia Hope just belts it out with massive shifts in pitch. Her brilliant range dances from bar to bar doing backflips and somersaults with effortless grace to hit the hook lines and keep the energy flying. The music progresses with a calm pause, bringing our focus back to the middle, before the main chorus fires up one more time to get us all moving. A fantastic dance number with torrents of tangible synthesiser that ripples with sunlight as Mia Hope ices the cake.

Jaayns
Real Things
Leeds


A real pro on the stage, Jaayns has developed a unique and well-rounded style by performing in various genres over the years. Finding a niche in electronica, she struck gold when her debut EP achieved radio play around the nation. She now presents her new single, Real Things. Calling back to indie music from the 90s while retaining her synonymous sound, this latest single wants to support individuality in the world where media tries to put you in uniform. Not our media, though, we love independent and open minded artists.


Sumptuous synths and sultry drums open as Jaayns' fantastic voice pours across the sculpture. Melodic and ASMR inspiring vocals snugly fit around us like warming arms. A surge of music bubbles up from subconscious passages with new bass layers and elevation of melody. The chorus hits us like a warm breeze, washing away the dust of previous hurts. A beautiful song with unique design, Real Things is like expensive honey.

Davey Long
Flesh & Blood
Alt Rock


Since working with luminary greats such as Celtic Woman on her Grammy nominated album Destiny and touring relentlessly with The Kilkennys, Davey Long prepares to launch his new album. Already gaining huge attention for his solo productions, including being used in charity adverts, the latest track comes out today. What a build-up, not many musicians can claim to have built on such solid foundations. Featuring Dave Gough on bass guitar, Rob Larkin on keyboards, Shane O’Dwyer and Eoin Drennan on guitars, with James Delahunty on synth, the sound is fit to burst with talent and skill.


The music begins with a vocal and piano draped over angular drums. Bass arrives with the snare on wings of clarity as the piano melody opens further. The vocals join with exploration of scale and tone, the progression snakes forward as sleek electric blues guitar vibes with uplifting strokes. The chorus rolls by like a special scene in a longer story that continues. On we go, on a boat of emotions as Davey Long and his brilliant band demonstrate their drama in the sounds of city nights.

​SOMMEFINN
Contact
From Tsk Tsk


Taken from their top-drawer album Tsk Tsk, SOMEFINN's Contact brings the business once again. Their touring schedule has gone to 11 since venues opened their doors and it's no surprise. The band have been enjoying an exciting ride since the release of the album, and their singles do their bit to reach new fans over the hills and far away. Since forming SOMEFINN, Irish Choice Music nominee and lead vocalist Paul Finn gathered his people and put the connections to perfect use. There is a music video on the horizon featuring award-winning dancer Arlene Caffrey that's amazing, and for now we can all enjoy the radio edit.


Juicy guitars and dramatic percussion bring out an 80s rock feel then Paul Finn opens the song with vocals to match. Emotional Tears for Fears style expression frames a melodic and introspective vibe that twinkles beyond vibrant guitars and harmonising keyboards. Layers of melody hide beneath the front row, weaving subtle plots beyond the main story. Story-line lyrics spin like thread and link casual feelings to the main chorus, a fist-pumping floor-bouncing sing-a-long chain of cheer.

Castle Black
Radio Queen
Punk Rock


On a fantastic run of releases and growth, New York punk rock duo Castle Black present Radio Queen. Musical royalty indeed, the group were recently talked about in New York Music Daily. Taken from their fiery EP called Get Up, Dancer, the Radio Queen takes a few nights out on the town as the airwaves vibe to her divine right.


A reverberating guitar shoots like a star over moody skies. Drums and bass thunder through as the song begins. Slow lyrics snake with sultry melody over a folk style progression as the music churns with imminent power. Then, with a chord change and a hail of distortion and drums, the chorus begins. The pace quickens to a punk beat as Castle Black's distinctive attitude shines forth. Catchy chorus lines and hurled guitar riffs that bounce into drum-fused walls instigate a dramatic and upbeat smash through glorious convictions.
