Irish alt-folk artist Niamh Regan has dropped her fantastic new single, ‘Madonna’. The track was written in a stream of consciousness as a reflection on violence suffered by women and, as a result, is filled with powerful and moving lyrics that flow effortlessly over a gentle, lilting acoustic guitar arrangement that was recorded live, in one take. Niamh Regan’s new album, Come As You Are, is set to be released on May 31st, via Faction Records. She explains that it is “full of acutely observed vulnerabilities and introspection. Its themes are the issues that many of us find loom large in the small hours: questions of self-doubt, uncertainty about your life's direction, whether relationships are flourishing in the way you'd hoped and determining priorities.” -Dan Peeke
