New Alt-Folk: Moon Looks On + “West Wind Blows”
Moon Looks On, AKA Stephen Gormley, excels in latest single
FFO: Ben Howard, Vance Joy, Fleet Foxes, Passenger, Dermot Kennedy
Moon Looks On has been carving a name for himself in the Irish and international music scene for a number of years now, boasting impressive appearances at Glastonbury, Electric Picnic, All Together Now, 2000 Trees Festival, The Ruby Sessions, and Other Voices. New single, “West Wind Blows”, released via Cauldron Records, was crafted during a deep moment of reflection for the artist, and serves as a lyrical ode to the rugged beauty of the west of Ireland, blending poignant nostalgia with optimism for the future:
"I was dreaming of the west of Ireland when I wrote this story. It’s a song about looking back over your life and holding on to optimism for things to come. It’s a tip of the hat to the past, the present, and the future in equal measure."
A masterful blend of introspection and melody, it showcases Gormley’s ability to capture the essence of human emotion in his music, and helps to continue to establish him as a profound storyteller and a beacon of authenticity in the music world.
Beautiful and wistful modern Irish folk at its finest.
