With a new year comes new music and today we bring the news as the Dublin singer and songwriter Theo Fitzgibbon is releasing his debut single Waterfall. Theo is no stranger to performing – he has played at every major gig venue in Dublin and was previously lead vocalist and songwriter for the band League of Nation. He is now stepping out on his own and with this perfect radio tune he is announcing himself to the world!
After his time on the gig circuit, Fitzgibbon wanted to hone his craft and went to IMW in London to study music production. Following his time studying in London, Theo took a break from music to attend a treatment centre in Dublin to address some addiction issues. After taking the time and doing the work to change his life’s direction, Theo was ready to start putting all of his energy into his music career.
On the release of his debut single, Theo comments: “I am thrilled to be releasing my debut single. Waterfall is a tune I am really proud of, it’s what my music is all about: punchy, catchy music with a belter of a chorus and amazing production, in this case from the incredibly talented Marc Carolan.”
In his own words, Theo wants to write the kind of pop music that “people can sing when they’re having a few drinks in a kitchen somewhere at 4 am”. Fitzgibbon likes to focus on crafting catchy, belting songs that make a huge impact. He has been hugely inspired by Noel Gallagher’s advice to write a f***ing chorus. Theo uses the classic lineup of instruments to create these soaring tunes: drums, piano and of course, guitar.
We’ve been listening to the new track here at Blazing Minds HQ and love the superb lyrics and vocals from Theo, it’s certainly a well-produced track that once you hear it will have the hook staying with you for a while after listening to it, we’re sure that you will enjoy this track and it will be on your list of favourites for the start of 2023.
The song was produced by Marc Carolan (Muse) and features Jake Curran (Guitarist, Niall Horan) Kev Corcoran (Keys, The Villagers) Rob Malone (Bass, The Villagers, David Gray). Theo Fitzgibbon’s single ‘Waterfall’ drops on Virgin Music on Jan 6th.
