Irish indie-pop types Somebody’s Child have debuted a brand new video for their new track ‘The Lover’.
The third track to be taken from forthcoming EP ‘Hope, Amongst Other Things’, lead-singer Cian Godfrey explains: “‘The Lover’ is probably the heaviest track I’ve ever written. It was written from a place of utter turmoil, which is quite obvious from the way I sing in it. Its message is one of anti-capitalism, anti-consumerism or what have you; a statement against the Status Quo. It’s supposed to make people stop and actually listen, in a world where people’s attention is being sold to the highest bidder. It’s quite different to our other stuff, but that’s entirely the point. If it shocks you it’s done what it’s supposed to. Make of it what you will.”
Started in late-2018 by Godfrey, Somebody’s Child are on a fast rising ascent from an Irish scene packed currently with fresh talent. They’ve already had support from the likes of BBC Radio 1, Radio X, Amazing Radio and Ireland’s biggest radio station – RTÉ Radio 1. They’ve also recently announced a headline tour, which is nice. Basically, they’re well worth keeping an eye on.
