SUSAN O’NEILL’S soulful ‘DRIVE’ – out now
OUT today, the intimate, reflective, husky, sultry, soulful ‘Drive’ (Star House Collective) from SUSAN O’NEILL – with the song accompanied by a self-directed video which saw O’Neill team up with longtime collaborator, Christopher Luke.
“The song fell out of my mouth and onto the page in one brief sitting,” she explains. “I’m trying to be more honest with myself. If I can know my own chaos, chill with it, wear it like a parade of paradoxes, this would be me trying that on.”
‘Drive’ marks O’Neill’s first new music since her ‘Now You See It’ EP which scooped the ‘Best Original Folk Song’ award for its namesake track at the 2023, ‘RTE 1 Folk’ awards.
Engineered and produced by Christian Best in Cork, written with fellow bandmate brothers Cillian and Lorcan Byrne, ‘Drive’ was mixed by Irish born, LA-based Grammy award winning engineer, Cian Riordan (St. Vincent, Lana Del Rey, Sleater Skinny).
