Fake Saint is back with brand new music and even more exciting news to be announced soon!
He returns with a bang in “Flatline”, a heartfelt, emotional, and relatable new single that perfectly captures his signature blend of honesty and raw intensity.
Fake Saint (Sean McGrath), who is now able to focus on his music full-time. His undeniable talent has already garnered significant recognition from industry heavyweights. Lewis Capaldi personally invited him on stage to perform at Dublin’s Olympia Theatre, and Teddy Swims has repeatedly reviewed and covered his music, forming a genuine friendship and mutual respect with the rising Irish artist. Sam Tompkins and Dean Lewis have also championed Fake Saint’s work, recognising his standout potential.
Flatline dives headfirst into the thin line between love as a lifeline and love as an addiction.
It’s a haunting, pulse-racing alt-pop anthem that captures the desperate rush of finding salvation in another person, only to feel lifeless without them.
“Flatline is about that terrifying dependence you feel when someone becomes your oxygen,” says Fake Saint. “It’s like they reach inside your chest and pull you back every time you start to fade.”
Built on dark, brooding production and a soaring, heart-wrenching hook, Flatline channels vulnerability into aching, unflinching honesty, every lyric carrying the weight of a heart on the verge of breaking.
The verses recall near-death stillness, “I could’ve sworn I was dead… The way you left no oxygen again”, while the chorus erupts with the confession of a love so vital it feels like resuscitation.
With its mix of raw confession, melodic intensity, and aching desperation, Flatline cements Fake Saint’s place as a voice unafraid to show the fragile, beautiful cost of needing someone to keep your heart beating.
