Watch: DeCarteret feat Khakikid & Ahmed, With Love – ‘Icarus’

Avatar

Clare artist DeCarteret has released ‘Icarus’, a new song featuring Khakikid & Ahmed, With Love.

‘Icarus’ is inspired by the passing of her father in 2020.

“Icarus is a Greek legend depicting a father-son relationship. I wrote this track tying in my own relationship with my father Jerry and also my relationship with God, Our Father. Jerry passed away in mid 2020, and this song is a product of my thoughts and feelings that have occurred since that day.”
