Brendan Murray returns with his new single, ‘Deep Fake’. Available from June 11th on all streaming platforms, ‘Deep Fake’ is all about his personal experiences of his life behind the mic from his career to date. The Galway singer/songwriter, hailed by Robbie Williams as an artist with “an impossibly perfect pop voice”, Brendan knows how to write super catchy perfect pop songs too!
Speaking about ‘Deep Fake’, Brendan says “For me personally the meaning behind this track when it was written was mainly about having too many people trying to influence my life and telling me how I should steer my career and always agreeing with what they had to say. I think a lot of people including me feel like we need to keep a good reputation of over selves by posting all the time on social media and painting everything up to be amazing, but in reality sometimes, we just post to hide what we really feel.”
Brendan began his career with Irish boyband HomeTown in 2014. The band achieved two number one singles in Ireland with their first single ‘Where I Belong’ becoming the fastest-selling single from a debut act and the fastest-selling single from an Irish artist in 2014.
In 2017, Brendan went on to represent Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest which was seen by over 180 million viewers.
In 2018, Brendan entered season 15 of The X Factor. During the Six Chair challenge he received a safe seat from Louis Tomlinson and from then on helped him reach the semi-finals finishing in 5th place.
Since his success with HomeTown, Eurovision and X Factor, Brendan has been consistently releasing his own original music over the last couple of years and has been placed on leading Spotify playlists such as ‘Chilled Pop Hits’ and ‘Very Nearly Nashville’.
‘Deep Fake’ is available on streaming platforms Friday June 11th, 2021.
