Ailbhe Reddy returns with her new single ‘A Mess’.
June 15, 2022
The single follows April’s ‘Inhaling’, which marked a comeback for Ailbhe, who’s 2020 debut album ‘Personal History’ was shortlisted for the Choice Music Prize album of the year award. Ailbhe Reddy has just played The Great Escape, the UK’s renowned music industry showcase festival. In July, she plays Visions Festival and Latitude, with more festival announcements due over the coming weeks.
‘A Mess’ is an exciting pop-drizzled indie rock track. The song is skillfully produced and superbly layered as Ailbhe Reddy fills an expressive soundscape with rampant bass lines, biting guitars and a sweet pop melody. Reddy is a very talented musician. The artist’s tracks ooze emotive lyrics and evocative musical arrangements that leave much to be admired. ‘A Mess’ is no exception – within the track, thrilling grunge elements and shoegaze flirtations reverb beneath smooth vocals that create dreamy tones throughout the song’s dynamic soundscape. This wonderful combination of elements is eargasmic and beckons repeat plays from the listener. Reddy sets the bar high with this fantastic tune. The track is a joy to listen to and is an enticing display of musicianship from Ailbhe Reddy.
About the track, Ailbhe Reddy says: “A Mess’ is about not feeling good enough in a relationship and examining old patterns and habits. It’s about feeling fed up of going around in circles, while focusing on a throw away comment that ‘no wonder it was such a mess.”
