LISTEN TO ‘YOUR HEART’S NOT IN IT’ HERE
Having already made a bold impression with a string of fresh and enticing pop offerings this past year, fast-rising Jersey born / Irish singer and songwriter Tadhg Daly now makes a dramatic return as he shares his latest release ‘Your Heart’s Not In It’.
Filled with euphoric production and his own soaring take on songwriting, ‘Your Heart’s Not In It’ marks one of his most explosive releases to date. With its broad and uplifting aesthetic rising to an enormous and cacophonous crescendo, this new effort will certainly turn some heads from start to finish.
Speaking about his new release, Tadhg said, "'Your Heart's Not In It' is written as the end of a love story based on some of my own experiences. It represents the moment at the end of a relationship in which one person has fallen out of love but hasn’t made their feelings clear, and the other person is left on the hook just wanting to hear the final words and find freedom to move on."
Ever since he was a child, it was clear that music was firmly in Tadhg Daly’s makeup. Coming from an enormous family based in Jersey & Ireland, many of his relatives were keen musicians and actors, which made it easy for him to grow creatively in his early years. Picking up the trumpet at the age of nine, he was hooked on creating and performing music, something that he kept up until a sports injury changed his life forever.
When he was thirteen, he broke his leg during a football match, which left him in a cast for eight months. With not much else to do except delve further into his musical passions, he began to grow a taste for rock and punk music. By the time he returned to school, he had fully embraced the alternative scene and began to perform in a number of local bands doing the rounds. Something his old friends didn’t understand and so he began to hang out with people more interested in his newfound obsession. But this new persona he had taken on made him a target at school and eventually led to him dropping out.
Things never got much easier after that. Feeling despondent and an outsider in his own community, he found himself a part of the wrong crowd and quickly developed a drug dependency by the age of sixteen. With no purpose or path to follow, he fell deeper and deeper into a depression, which fed his habit and left him heading in and out of hospital continuously.
Now after a number of years of recovery and personal growth, and building momentum with his hometown audience, he headed to London to find his place and learn the musician's craft. This led to the release of his first EP, and first taste of attention from major media such as BBC Radio 1 and Radio Scotland, and gave him the opportunity to play a number of major festivals alongside support shows with James Morrison and James Blunt and touring through Europe.
Following the promotion and experience of his first commercial output, and with the confidence of finding his voice and focusing his talents, Tadhg became studious to the songwriting cause and throughout 2020 when the world was in lockdown he holed himself up in an East London studio. Between heavy periods of government control his room became a revolving door of the capital's brightest songwriter and producer talent with the resulting work distilled in a new EP and prolific archive of songs.
As we move into 2021, with the machinery in place for his career to develop he is quickly becoming one of the most talked about new artists of the moment.
