The Fae return with new single ‘So You Said’ via Scruff of the Neck Records Singles Club

August 16, 2024

The Fae are an exciting new alt-rock trio from Dublin. Channelling elements of indie, power pop, shoegaze and alternative rock delivering their own distinctive brand of big chorus guitar music. Their debut ‘Bloodrush EP‘ received excellent support and acclaim from BBC 6music, BBC Radio 1, Radio X, SiriusXM etc

‘After we put out our debut Bloodrush EP, we thought it might be fun to do some single releases before diving into another EP or Album. We had begun experimenting with more guitar based, heavier music, and ”So You Said” came about in a rehearsal, Emma just began playing the verse riff. It was one of those songs that we all agreed was closer to where we’d like to take the band musically. it’s also way more fun to translate that harder, heavier music in a live context, as a 3 piece you can build up velocity really quickly.  The lyrics were written in a daze, about my girlfriend, It’s real. 

For the music video we had planned to make a quick visualiser in the forest, but we were having such a good time we just said fuck it, we’ll make a video. 
Myles Keogh, who shot and edited the video, is very talented and he totally matched our energy and enthusiasm. We stayed in that forest until nearly 2am, making it up as we went along, frame by frame.’
