Irish singer-songwriter Sarah Crean’s latest continues her melodic indie song streak.
‘Nosebleeds’ is the song in question, a fine followup to ‘Compliments Strike’ earlier this year.
“Nosebleeds started as an attempt at a love song and quickly became a cry for help. It carefully describes the ways in which you can be controlled by a partner, so much so that resorting to silence feels like the easy way out. I wrote it at a time where I didn’t feel like I had a voice, but now it feels like a triumph. And I’m hopeful it encourages that same feeling for others.”
The song was co-written and produced by Chloe Kramer (known for her work with The Japanese House and Lava La Rue).
New gigs are below including Dublin, London and Cardiff.
