‘The Mirror’s Favourite’

“This is a song for everyone who’s had to deal with a pretty boy who thinks he’s better than everyone else. It’s very much what’s on the inside that matters, no one likes self centred people! This was a really fun song to write and what I hope is a very relatable one. It’s finally summer time so that means some new upbeat music. I think this is a catchy one so I’m hoping it could be your song of the summer! Catch me playing this new track at a couple Irish music festivals over the next few months.”
