Forever referring to themselves as “a phoenix from the ashes” Orwells ’84 in its original incarnation was the brainchild of singer and songwriter Damien McKenna.
Based on the free spirit and loosened shackles of the Plastic Ono band, McKenna set out to seek musicians for the cause. Quickly recruiting guitarist and long-time friend Sean Byrne the pair were followed into the line-up by celloist Ella Englishby.
Based on these elements the band cultivated a manifesto and a sound to match. The line-up was completed by the incomings of musicians and producers Peter Mc Coy and Pauric McCrum.
Latest single Tomorrow (Maybe I’ll Be Alright) is a delicate love letter to the past with a message that tomorrow might well be better.
The band have crafted a beautiful pop soundscape to accompany the gentle reminder that love hurts but that there is always another day on the horizon.
With hints of poetry, romance and a starry-eyed outlook Tomorrow (Maybe I’ll Be Alright) is a tale as old as time, a tale that everyone can relate to. It is a song that, although hints at a struggle to overcome a broken heart, sends a message that tomorrow will be better.
This catchy melody and chorus hook is the foundation of this message and the band took a deep dive on the record collection and looked to The Beatles, Bowie and even the all-time great crooners to bring this bright, twinkly song to life.
