Influenced by 90s boom bap, drill and post-punk bands, Aaron Lawlor’s musical heritage is certainly somewhat mixed, thus creating a sound that is as adventurous as it is self-assured. Hailing from Dublin, Aaron’s subject matter reflects struggles of loneliness and romance whilst being wrapped up in a sound that is tongue-in-cheek.
Discussing the new track, Aaron says:
“This song to me is about many things. I remember writing it in my room after coming back from a party at like 2 in the morning. I got the idea from the hook from the party as there was a girl there that I liked and I was too nervous and couldn’t get my feelings through… The other part of the hook is a Steve Irwin reference which is a reference to my childhood; I remember my Dad used to always rinse my brain with nature documentaries and stuff like that. I remember he used to have this red book filled with animals and stuff about them. He used to read me this before I went to bed at a young age, so I had to shout out Steve as he’s a legend to me!”
