Lizzie Fitzpatrick started synth-wave project called Coolgirl a few years ago and released some occasional recordings throughout that time.
Now that the band she fronted – Bitch Falcon – are no more, Lizzie has returned to the project now with ‘Silverlight’, a foreboding song in the synthwave vein last week, which today is debuting a video for the song.
“I used vocals chopped up in a sequence that portray lost bits of conversations remembered suddenly and swiftly forgotten.”
Drawing on the song’s sense of being a vortex, the video for the song is a colour-mix treated psychedelic swirl with home videos at the source.
Watch it here:
‘Silverlight’, is the first single to be taken from her upcoming EP, out later this year via Veta Records.
Coolgirl plays Feile na Greine, Limerick on the weekend of 18th-19th August.
