With his previously unveiled offerings 'Winter in LA', 'Fall Apart' and 'All I Know' finding support on Spotify’s New Music Friday, as well as their ‘Wake Up Happy’, ‘Morning Run’, and ‘yung & free’ playlists, Jersey born / Irish singer and songwriter Tadhg Daly now continues the support for his latest EP ‘Getting It All Wrong’ by the delivering the Jolé edit of his newest single ‘Novocaine’.
While the original version of ‘Novocaine’ saw Tadhg Daly pursue more of that broad and euphoric alt-pop aesthetic we have come to love him for, the new Jolé edit explores a more tender side to the song. Leaving much of the production stripped-back throughout the first half to highlight his heartfelt lyrics, this new rework grows into a more atmospheric and humbled rendition, adding a more emotionally-charged element to his latest captivating swoon.
Speaking about the new Jolé edit, Tadhg said, “Jolé has been one of my favourite artists and a consistent collaborator for the past couple of years. I’m a huge fan of the soundscapes he creates in his music and to have him reimagine “Novocaine” has allowed me to see a totally different side to the song. I think this version of the song shines a light on the vulnerability in the story of the song.”
Following on from his highly-praised 2021 collection ‘Forever Young’, his new EP ‘Getting It All Wrong’ will see him reemerging in the midst of his biggest year to date. Named as one of Amazon Music's Artist To Watch 2022 and BBC Introducing Channel Islands' Artist To Watch 2022 at the start of the year, his newest EP aims to be the release that further catapults him to the household name he is set to become.

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 holed himself up in an East London studio over the past two years. 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 through 2022, 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.
