Seán Mulrooney: New Single Out Friday; This is My Prayer Coming Feb. 14
We are nearing the Feb. 14 release of Seán Mulrooney‘s debut solo album, This is My Prayer, and this week, the Tau and the Drones of Praise founder is streaming “The Pufferfish” as the second advance single. And if you heard “Ag Múschlaighacht,” which came out in November, don’t be surprised when “The Pufferfish” hits with a different vibe. Taking cues from Beatles-bouncing psychedelia, the four-minute cut works itself into a bit of a fervor with some genuine thrust behind it, but never loses the sweetness of its melody or the sense of fun that it brings as the closer of Murooney‘s Prayer, a blowout after some affecting and emotionally heavy moments. Well earned.
You can stream “The Pufferfish” now on the Bandcamp player below ahead of the song’s release on Friday. I’m not sure if that’s supposed to be accessible to the public, but it is, so have at it. And if you don’t know Tau or any of Mulrooney‘s other work, no sweat. It’s friendly enough that you’ll be able to get on board, no worries.
The PR wire brought particulars:
SEÁN MULROONEY DELIVERS PSYCHEDELIC STOMPER ‘THE PUFFERFISH’ OUT 31ST JANUARY
DEBUT SOLO ALBUM ‘THIS IS MY PRAYER’ COMING ON VALENTINE’S DAY 14TH FEBRUARY
Riding on the success of his debut solo single “Ag Múschlaighacht” last November, Dublin native Seán Mulrooney takes a psychedelic deep dive with his new song “The Pufferfish” which is out 31st January.
If Dexys Midnight Runners, Queens of the Stone Age, and Brian Eno collaborated on a song about dolphins getting high on – wait for it – pufferfish secretion, it might sound like Sean Mulrooney’s new single The Pufferfish. This psychedelic dance-floor odyssey, inspired by a BBC film documenting dolphins interacting with pufferfish to seemingly experience a hallucinogenic high, features Earl Harvin from Tindersticks and My Brightest Diamond on drums. Sean and Earl, who have crafted five records together, showcase their incredible musical symbiosis in this mind bending track.
