Irish alt-pop artist Kathy Long – releases an uplifting and airy new single ‘June’

‘June’ is a summer love letter to the month, to possibility, to greeting new days with curious joy and wonder. Creating this song was a return to gratitude for the simple things – how plainly incredible it is to enter a new month with eyes to follow the flowers. Fusing the Irish traditional banjo into this song felt like a natural connection to its roots – I wrote this song from a feeling of home among the green and the sun shining through the trees back in Kilkenny.’

Kathy Long is an Irish musician from County Kilkenny. Her music is a deep, lyrical journey through raw and captivating soundscapes. She is currently recording her first album while showcasing her music at various venues around the country and festivals such as Electric Picnic. Her most recent single ‘Glow Gold’ gained considerable traction from Irish/UK radio as well as being featured in Hot Press, District magazine, RTE and more. She has recently moved to Bergen, Norway, where she will be working with Norwegian producers to finish the final tracks of her debut EP. This EP will be a musical reflection of the elements – fire, air, earth and water, with ‘June’ being the air element of this project.
