Irish pop-princess Ro Malone – releases female empowerment anthem ‘Shimmy Shimmy Bae’ this coming Friday

Shimmy Shimmy Bae is a vivacious vixen of a song!! This one goes out to all the ladies!! You gotta have girlfriends and you gotta be the woman that supports other women the way you would want to be supported and the way you SHOULD support yourself!!! 

‘For me, “when my best friend’s back in town” not only means like when my literal best girlfriend is back in town but also when metaphorically the best friend in my head shows up again!! Like after slugging through a bad patch and I wake up with this kind, compassionate, loving voice inside my head that starts rooting for me again. That’s also my best friend!!! She’s dope haha!!!

The song is about finding your people and learning how to help refill their cup and yours!! It’s about it being okay not to be okay and knowing that there’s no reason why you can’t bounce back. A very successful Irish woman once told me “don’t be somewhere and feel stifled and down on yourself” and to be honest, that word “stifled” didn’t even exist in my vocabulary at the time; but once I looked it up it made so much sense to me and truly ignited a revolution inside my soul. Slowly but surely I’ve been removing all obstacles out of my way so that those I meet and support and the true me can Shimmy Shimmy Bae’
