Caoilfhionn Rose
Manchester singer-songwriter Caoilfhionn Rose announces new album Truly and shares lead single Fireflies due 9th April via Gondwana Records.
Commenting on the new track, Rose says: “To me, ‘Fireflies’ has a nostalgic and comforting feel. It’s about feeling hopeful about the future ‘though there may be dark clouds the sun will always come’. There are references to older lyrics I have written. The line ‘free from all the chaos’ is a nod to a song I collaborated on with The Durutti Column. The song is about acknowledging the past and moving on as ‘time is always healing’.”
Fireflies paints a rich tapestry for the first taste of forthcoming album Truly co-produced by Kier Stewart of The Durutti Column following Rose’s collaborative endeavours with them, verging on alt-folk with jazz undertones resulting in a beautifully tender listen.
