Rising new Irish alt-rock artist Toria – will release the powerful single ‘Flashing of Light’

Flashing of Light touches on themes of death, and how sudden and shocking the loss of a loved one can be. I wrote it during a dark period, and I feel as though it has solidified the direction in which I want my music to take

Following the release of her debut ‘Belief ’EP in 2024, Irish artist Toria returns with the release of her powerful new single ‘Flashing of Light‘ on Fri 12th Sept and announces herself as an exciting new sound in Irish female alternative rock. Melancholic and moody tones are broken by an energetic and passionate alt rock soundtrack. A mix of beauty, passion and frustrated anger; lyrically, musically and physically. Following in the footsteps of so many iconic Irish female artists, Toria is a refreshing musical voice that demands to be heard.

Toria trained in classical piano from an early age, moving between alternative pop ballads and Beethoven. Her desire for more musical outlets led her to guitar, singing and eventually song writing. Having spent time growing up living in different parts of Ireland, she began testing out her new material at musician gatherings in small Irish towns. Toria’s passion for music in its many forms and her desire to write and perform ever more poetic compositions led her to music performance college in Dublin where she earned her degree. Toria has performed with her band throughout Ireland at festivals and spotlight venues, and her tracks have seen airplay to date on 2FM, RTE Radio 1, Amazing Radio UK etc
