For Dublin-born singer Sorcha Richardson, the seed of music was sowed early. She started her first band at just ten years old and between her ever-growing talents on guitar and vocals, has become one of Ireland’s most exciting solo acts. And though pop may be at the forefront of Richardson’s songwriting, she incorporates enough styles to both satisfy the formulas of modern music and still keep you guessing one track after another.
Dating back to 2012, Richardson’s already got a slew of singles under her belt and this fall she releases her debut album, First Prize Bravery. The record was only recently revealed with its lead single last Friday, shaking up a bedroom pop cocktail of infectious synth, atmospheric reverb, and the dangers of non-confrontation. Here’s “Don’t Talk About It“!
