One of Ireland’s most promising musicians, Cork lady Marlene Enright has released a fine series of singles in the last year and a bit.
Enright will release her debut album Placemats and Second Cuts on March 24th this year.
Like previous singles ‘Alchemy’, ‘Underbelly’ and ‘When The Water Is Hot’, ‘123’ draws from indie, folk and roots music influences and Enright’s bright vocals to create a memorable classic pop tune.
“I was thinking that my destiny // Would fall from the clouds right at my feet // I’d pick enough from the apple tree // And I’d go on the count of 123”
‘123’ is out on February 3rd.
