Listen To Something To You

 

9 May: Moncrieff has released his long-awaited debut album, maybe it’s fine, and shares the latest track to be taken from it, Something To You.

 

Though it might be Moncrieff’s first album, maybe it’s fine is the culmination

of a decade-long musical journey which has seen the Waterford-born singer rack up over 40 million streams and win over fans from Elton John to late producer/DJ Avicii.

Over twelve wildly divergent tracks that span gospel-powered epics (Somebody’s Baby), late-night confessionals (I Just Don’t Think I’ll Make It Over You), euphoric pop (Shangri-La), future-facing R&B (High For Free), liquid funk grooves (Hard Feelings) and more, Maybe It’s Fine finds Moncrieff surveying his own evolution as an artist and a person. From the struggling songwriter still trying to make sense of the loss of his siblings when he was a teenager to the multifaceted artist behind such hit releases as 2022’s Warm, winner of the prestigious RTÉ Choice Music Prize for Irish Song of the Year.

 

“I started this journey into music ten years ago and trying to condense it into twelve songs was difficult,” Moncrieff says of the album. “In that time, I’ve been countless different versions of myself. This album is the story of that growth. Where I’ve come from, where I am and where I’m going.”

 

The tracks Moncrieff has released from maybe it’s fine so far have given a small taste of the depth and breadth of sounds and styles on the album. Today, he also shares Something To You, yet another song that pivots into fresh territory for the singer; its bouncing acoustic shuffle and pristine new wave sparkle masking a darker emotional undertow.

 

“It’s dressed up as a bit of a party song, but underneath it’s about wanting to be used if that’s the only way you’re going to get something from someone,” says the singer. “I met this person at a house party, and it was so exciting. However, my feelings became a bit deeper and theirs were never really there. But it was such a fun thing that you don’t really care. Like, I don’t care if it’s all or nothing, I just want to be something to you… Whatever it is, I’ll take it.”

MONCRIEFF RELEASES NEW SONG ‘SHANGRI-LA’

Award-winning Irish singer Moncrieff releases the latest track from his hotly anticipated debut album, Maybe It’s Fine.

Pre-order Maybe It’s Fine

March 28 – Today, Moncrieff unveils his new single Shangri-La. A euphoric burst of sun-kissed pop, the track is the latest song to be taken from the award-winning singer’s debut album, Maybe It’s Fine, due out on May 9 via Warner Music Central Europe and available to pre-order HERE.

Shangri-La follows Hard Feelings, How It Ends and I Just Don’t Think I’ll Make It Over You as our first tastes of Maybe It’s Fine, a record whose breadth of sounds, styles and ways of storytelling showcases the remarkable evolution of Moncrieff as an artist since he first broke through almost a decade ago. It’s a journey which has seen him win over fans including Elton John and late DJ/producer Avicii, clock up over 40 million streams and win the prestigious RTÉ Choice Music Prize for his 2022 track Warm.

Possibly Moncrieff’s most uplifting track to date, Shangri-La’s joyous collision of beats, melody and spangled synthesiser lines reflects the carefree recklessness in his lyrics: conjuring up images of heady endless nights and giddy, boundless freedom.

“It’s one of the few songs on the album that isn’t purely narrative-based. There is a story, but it’s more of a feeling. And the feeling is being intoxicated,” says Moncrieff of the track.

“It’s about two people becoming so recklessly infatuated with each other that in the moment, it feels like they’re on drugs. I was seeing this person, and I knew deep down that it was never going to end well but it was just so much fun being with them. They were so charismatic, gorgeous… seriously good craic. I was totally taken in but looking back now there were some serious red flags. The song encapsulates all the best parts of that experience and that person while also wilfully ignoring everything else. That pure, carefree feeling is so enticing. It’s only when you come down that you realise it’s something else!”

Though it might be Moncrieff’s debut album, Maybe It’s Fine is a document of his journey through adulthood. Its twelve songs find him charting and surveying his own growth, both as musician and a person. From the struggling songwriter making a break from Ireland to London while still reeling from the loss of his siblings when he was a teenager, to the multifaceted, genre-straddling artist of today.

“I started this journey into music ten years ago. There’s been literally thousands of stories and ideas since and trying to condense it into twelve songs was difficult,” says Moncrieff. “In that time, I’ve been countless different versions of myself. This album is the story of that growth. Where I’ve come from, where I am and where I’m going.

Shangri-La is available on all major platforms via Warner Music Central Europe. Maybe It’s Fine is available to pre-order now.
