JOE’s Song Of The Day #678: FIELDS ‘Get Worse’

Eric Lalor

FIELDS

FIELDS have released their brand new single.

FIELDS are putting the final touches to their debut album and have released a new track which gives us a flavour of what’s to come. The new album will also have another one of their songs we’ve featured before.

Formed in 2016, FIELDS is an Irish collective whose members include Seán O’Brien, Killian Leahy, Emmet Casey and Des Brodie. Over the past 24 months, the group has honed a sound which marries the intimacy of folk-enthused story-telling with powerful synth-driven melodies, carefully-entwined harmonies and atmospheric guitars.

It’s a very polished effort from the band and further evidence that this is a collective growing all the time.

Frontman Seán O’Brien has spoken about the track, ’‘Get Worse’ underpins where I’ve been at in my life for quite some time, and where some people find themselves every day.”

“It’s borne out of this struggle with a sense of imposter syndrome, when you’re pulling one way, then another and all the while you feel like you should be somewhere else or someone else. We tried to explore that feeling with the track, its ups as well as its downs.”
