Hailing from Cork, Sarah Hickey has recently been creating a stir in the press with the steady reveal of enchanting singles. Her forthcoming debut album is the result of over a year in the studio, refining the sound that first emerged in venues across Ireland. A talented vocalist tagged for her confessional and reflective songwriting, Sarah’s artistic talents have begun to bubble to the surface.
The songwriter’s latest single release is the brooding track ‘Slow Burner’. Warm and ethereal, the track is filled with delicate melodies, each instrument performing with an emotional subtlety that comes right in line with Sarah’s thoughtful and reserved vocal performance. Delivered alongside a dark lead guitar and twinkling synth hums, Sarah creates a captivating atmosphere that seems to reach out to the listener, steadily growing with further orchestration until they are completely bewitched.
Sarah adds, “Slow Burner is about leaning into your strengths and trying to avoid comparing yourself to others”
