Irish singer-songwriter Patrick O’Laoghaire aka I Have A Tribe has been whirring up his release schedule over the last couple of years with sporadic singles, and it’s all been leading up to a new album Changing of the Guard , his second full-length, due Friday 26th May 2023.
‘Oh Man’ is the lovely new single from the project, a sprightly piano-lead song that encapsulates O’Laoghaire’s distinct songcraft.
“‘Oh Man’ is a song about that human experience of uncertainty, when you say to someone – ‘tell me what to do.’ Or, when you ask it of yourself… and listen for the answer.”
