As EMMO (Emmet Crotty) goes from strength to strength the release of his second single ‘Lemon Sun’ really cements his position as one of Ireland’s most exciting upcoming artists. An upbeat, contagiously optimistic track that ironically charts the end of a long-term relationship.
Fresh off the stage from The Marquee in Cork, opening for The Coronas, Emmo’s live rendition of ‘Lemon Sun’ has been receiving rapturous applause! Lyrically relatable and musically impressive ‘Lemon Sun’ by Emmo has a similar energy to Paul Simon’s ‘Call Me Al’, with an infectiously modern pop rap hook.
Speaking about the track Emmo said “ I coined the term ‘Lemon Sun’ as the period of time you go through after a breakup. Its basically the complete opposite of the Honeymoon Period. What’s the opposite of honey – the bitterness of a lemon and the opposite of moon is Sun. Hence Lemon Sun! We’ve all been through a ‘Lemon Sun phase’ and this track is my tribute to that.”
‘Lemon Sun’ has all the trademarks of a summer hit with the traditional breakup message. It’s about what you’re missing most about that person, what you want more of, what you feel you can’t live without but mostly the small, tiny, parts of a relationship you miss the most.
