London-based Dubliner Louis Brennan is a singer-songwriter in the folk tradition. His folk however aren’t the field hands and travelling minstrels of yore but the repressed middle managers and ennui-ridden urbanites of late-stage capitalism. They populate tales of bad sex, half-drunk commutes and interpersonal claustrophobia delivered in Brennan’s cracked baritone, at times embarrassingly intimate, at times spuriously broad, peppered with pitch-black humour.

“There are moments in life when a song just stops you. From the very first second to the second it ends, all you can do is listen, caught under it’s spell. When it feels like the song fills the air around you, and all you can do is breathe it in” – HOLLER
