Intro: 14-year-old Wexford artist Patricia Lalor is racking up 100K listeners on Spotify & 121K on Youtube for her sweet tunes

Patricia Lalor is a 14-year-old Irish musician whose age doesn’t define her abilities. What we’ve heard from the youngster so far is quality regardless of that fact and Lalor has already racked up 100,000 plus monthly listeners on Spotify to date.

Lalor who has been releasing covers on Youtube since she was 11 years of age and her channel has 121K subscribers. Her cover of Hozier’s ‘Cherry Wine’ also caught the attention of the man himself who lauded it online saying “hands down, one of the best covers I’ve seen.”

She has just released her second EP proper entitled Sleep Talk and it features four tracks of dreamy lo-fi pop and the artist says this one has a general theme of sleep mentioned throughout.

Patricia Lalor, youth not taken into account even, is one to watch.
