Artist's Biography
The
independent release of her debut EP Wildflower in 2020 saw stunning newcomer
and multiinstrumentalist, Lorraine Nash, quickly become one of the most
played female artists on Irish radio. A spellbinding, live-streamed set at
Cork Opera House in December by the Kerry singer songwriter led to her
signing with FIFA Records, to release the first track, ‘Sing With Her’, out
April 30, from her impending debut long player.
‘Sing With Her’ was inspired by the #WhyNotHer movement and its revelations
of gender inequality within the Irish music industry. It’s a call for
musicians to stand together to ensure the industry is a level playing field.
‘Sing With Her’ sees Lorraine reach deep into the roots of country music,
finding her own voice within it. Full of swagger, while showcasing a
playfulness with lyrics and an ear for clever arrangement that has become
her signature Lorraine Nash has come into her own and is unapologetic about
it.
Irish artists have shown their resilience and drive to continue to create
art during the past 12 months of the Covid-19 pandemic and its restrictions.
It was an unlikely time to announce herself but Lorraine Nash has gone from
strength to strength using it to develop her home studio as well as
recording and filmography skills in order to continue to release music. In
consultation with producer Herring Ahern Lorraine is putting together a very
special record that she is excited to share with the world.
