Today 6th of June sees Seanie Bermingham – release the new single ‘Meet Me In Montauk’ you can now read our review here

Seanie Bermingham has a real gift for making you feel like you’ve stumbled into a memory, one that’s not even yours, but somehow still feels like home. His latest single “Meet Me In Montauk” is no different. Floating somewhere between dream-pop and indie folk, it’s a soft, spacious track that quietly wrecks you if you let it.

Built around subtle acoustic strumming and a beautifully restrained vocal, the song opens with Seanie painting quiet moments—“when I am walking / I look to the sky.” There’s something really tender in the way he delivers that line and softly moves into “I’ll take a train ride somewhere, a better place to be / and I’ll fall asleep beneath a clementine sky.” It feels like you’re eavesdropping on someone trying to process a love that’s long gone but not quite forgotten.

The production deserves a shout too, it’s understated but clever. Seanie’s vocals echo and stretch just when they need to, adding texture without ever pulling focus from the lyrics. The build is gentle but steady, and it carries you along without ever getting loud or overwhelming. It’s like being rocked in and out of waves, always moving, never jarring.

Lyrically, this is some of Seanie’s most vulnerable work. There is a section where he lists all the little things he’d miss, things like “movie nights, coffee cups, late-night calls, moonlit drives.” It’s heartbreak in snapshots. I think that’s what makes this one so special. This part hit me because these are just small things but they are the foundation of relationships, a coffee cup on its own is just a coffee cup but it’s that attachment to someone that makes it special and symbolic. This kind of writing helps the track become very relatable to many listeners. He’s showing us the little things that made it all matter in the first place. Seanie wears his heart on his sleeve and it’s beautiful.

The chorus—“I don’t know you anymore”—is quietly devastating. Not angry. Not bitter. Just… resigned. And in my opinion, that’s where Seanie really shines. He knows how to write sadness without the needles drama. It’s soft and true, and all the more powerful because of it.

I first saw Seanie live at the When Next We Meet Festival last year. He performed a song for his Nanny and it stopped me in my tracks as it happened to fall on the first anniversary of my own Nanny’s passing, and I remember standing there just completely floored (I still have the recording on my phone). It was one of those rare live music moments that really sticks with you. Since then, I’ve kept an eye on his work, and it just reaffirms what I thought back then: this isn’t someone chasing trends. He writes with purpose, and he’s got the voice and songwriting ability to back it all up. Seanie has recently joined Amble as a band member and it’s wonderful to see this hardworking musician get the recognition he deserves.

Meet Me In Montauk is another step forward for Seanie. It’s raw, real, and totally unforced. If you’ve ever sat with a memory you weren’t ready to let go of, or tried to forget something while secretly hoping you wouldn’t, this song’s going to find you right where you are.

‘Meet Me In Montauk’ scores a n 8 out of 10
