Ireland’s hotly tipped alt-pop empress, FYA FOX flaunts her newfound independence in ‘Need It’, a hard-hitting dismissal that leaves no remorse. The single is due for release Friday, 27th August 2021.
Traversing rolling hills of sparse, panoramic songwriting, FYA FOX is the exciting new prospect from Ireland spinning tightly wound yarns of brooding and emotive alt-pop. A classically trained vocalist straying beyond Ireland’s traditional country/folk scene, FYA’s influences span from Banks, Lana Del Rey and London Grammar.
Returning from a slight breather after the recent and pulsating release ‘Sunset’, FOX’s new track, ‘Need It’ harnesses the singer out of a venomous relationship and into a life of liberty.
The irresistible beats of ‘Need It’ wrap themselves around FYA’s sultry harmonies as she challenges her lover to admit their wrongdoings, before ultimately realising she’s better flying solo. “Your voice, I don’t wanna hear it / Your touch, I don’t wanna feel it” she commands in the track’s palpitating chorus as her self-confidence and independence rises now she’s unchained herself from all links of toxicity.
Toning down her delivery in the track’s middle 8, FYA reflects, singing: “Looking at it now, I think I’m better off without / I wish I had known you’d let me down” before launching into one final chorus alive with elated emotion.
FYA’s previous two singles ‘Body’ & ‘White Lies’ have already been supported by 2FM, Today FM and the likes of Hot Press, Record of the Day, Nialler9, The Last Mixed Tape, Flavour Magazine, Fortitude & Alfitude + many more. ‘Body’ was added to the BBC Radio Ulster ‘Where Music Matters’ playlist which features ten new tracks across the BBC Radio Ulster playlist each month and her debut, ‘White Lies’ received its world exclusive with Radio 1’s Gemma Bradley on BBC Across The Line. As well as being added by Hattie Pearson to the influential Co-op Edit UK playlist, her music has featured on a number of prestigious Spotify playlists including ‘Fresh Finds’ (750K followers).
