Elaine Malone is a serious talent.
Elaine Malone is an Irish psychedelic-folk songwriter.
Hailing from Limerick, she currently resides in Cork, where she has carved a name for herself as an idiosyncratic songwriter. She’s known for her haunting voice and poetic lyricism, combined with grunge roots and psychedelic leanings.
She has just launched her debut EP, ‘Land’ and this is one track from it. It’s a stunning piece of work and showcases the considerable talent she possesses.
Her recent appearances includes spots at Electric Picnic, Quarter Block Party, It Takes A Village and support slots for O Emperor, David Keenan and Marlene Enright.
Also featuring on the EP are the twin rhythm-section of Talos, Josh and Sonny Sampson, while Sam Clague also features heavily as a multi-instrumentalist. ‘Land’ deals with heartache, apathy, the tragic and infamous death of Ann Lovett in 1984 and the torture of first falling in love.
