For Those I Love is teasing new music

Over the weekend, David Balfe’s project posted the short teaser below, along with a link to a mailing list.

You can sign up to the list at https://www.forthosei.love, where the site has a countdown to 5pm Irish Time on Tuesday May 20th.

For Those I Love beermats were also seen around Dublin city this past weekend.


Since the release of the self-titled debut album first in 2019, and then officially in 2021 which was concerned with the love and loss of a close friend Paul Curran, , For Those I Love has collaborated with Overmono on a remix that he performed live regularly with the duo and his own work, was nominated for an Ivor Novello, contributed songwriting to a Rina Sawayama track and won the Choice Prize.

There’s much speculation about how Dave will follow up a deeply personal album, and the teaser clip suggests the project will possibly address Irish emigration.

For Those I Love is playing the UK festival End Of The Road this summer.
