Dermot Kennedy – ‘Moments Passed’
Dubliner Dermot Kennedy made a big big impression with his single from earlier this year ‘Glory’, a song which matched singer-songwriter sensibilities with glossy production.
On new single ‘Moments Passed’, which debuted on Zane Lowe’s Beats1 show last night, Kennedy works a similar trick, pouring his heart over an acoustic guitar, burning embers of ambient production and a quietly grand chorus with a vocal sample.
This boy is going places. Literally. It’s a tour.
