Skibbereen native and alternative-pop artist Rushes exudes a swagger and clued-in pop sensibility with this, his latest track.
Upbeat, energetic, vibrant and full of the joys of hot summer days, it's an uplifting piece of music.
‘Funds’ was written during a period when Rushes was working tirelessly on music, uncertain whether it would see the light of day.
"I was on a good run of creating so there was optimism around, and I think that comes across through the sound,” Rushes recalls of the track’s creation.
“I remember it was a miserable day during summer, which is a very typical scene in Ireland. I had the song written so it was just about capturing that carefree-ness when recording.”
It certainly sounds like it was captured to us, give it a listen below.
