(@travithenative) ishouldbesleeping is a song Travi has been sitting on for a few years. It was written when he and his partner were doing long distance.

Travi took the track to his producer, who helped him bring the different sound to it that he was hoping for.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Travi, The Native.

Eoghan grew up around traditional Irish music and dance in Connemara but has taken his music many different directions. He always had a love for a more alternative sound and when he discovered digital synthesizers in college an obsession began. Dark Disco ties together influences of disco that Eoghan was hoping to make, with a sound that it true to him.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Eoghan Moylan (@eoghan_moylan_music) When it comes to writing songs Eoghan said he feels he's a bit backwards compared to most. Usually, a song title will come to him and then he works on building around that. He is a storyteller at heart and hopes to incorporate that into all his music.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Eoghan Moylan (@eoghan_moylan_music)   [audio mp3="https://media.radiocms.net/uploads/2022/05/07123708/PODCAST-Eoghan-Moylan-.mp3"][/audio] Eoghan is hoping to book a few gigs and festivals over the Summer so he can play his new music to people.

SJ Talbot This week's One To Watch is SJ Talbot. SJ has just released her latest single Millisecond and joined Sarina to tell her all about it. Although SJ began releasing music in 2021, she's been working on her sound for a lot longer than that. In February 2020, SJ was in studio in London recording her debut single. However, the pandemic threw a spanner in the works. After some hard work through the pandemic SJ got the song released and she says the support she received was brilliant.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by SJ (@sj.talbot) Millisecond is the first song that SJ has been able to perform live before release. She performed it last week and said it was a relief to be able to say this song is going to be released soon instead of the other way round.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by SJ (@sj.talbot) SJ is really looking forward to a Summer of gigs, including supporting Pastiche in The Grand Social on May 25th. To hear more about SJ, her music and how important those single pre-saves are to artists, have a listen to the podcast.
