The result is new sounds, borne from experimentation and integration, while always maintaining a pop edge.

Track: ‘Fool’

Why We Like It: It’s a soulful number that begins stripped back and peppy as Corrigan’s vocals hop about with a lively melody along peppy guitar strums before building into a luscious, sweet, melodic tune that swoons you into a stupor. A warm guitar jingles with delicate balmy tones while elegant strings glide upon gentle piano twinkles creating a wholly satisfying, beautiful number that engages all your senses. It’s a sublime track that sweeps you away with rich guitar, lush backing vocals and the most glorious sun speckled fine wine instrumental. It’s simply beautiful.
