Irish electro RnB artist Blooms reveals a delicate, determined “Love”
Blooms is the musical moniker of Hackney-based, Irish-born RnB artist Louise Cunnane. With the slow-burning new single “Love”, the singer-songwriter furthers the lush intensity that characterised her previous single “Fall”.
Airy, soft production and delicate synths set “Love” ablaze. Underneath the song’s gauzy trappings lies a deep sense of determination and self-resolve. Sweetly somber vocals reflecting on love's loss offer an absolutely entrancing contrast to the music’s rhythmic, sensuous pull.
Speaking about the song’s origins and the musical path she has forged, Cunnane says: “‘Love’ is a reflection on my first EP; remembering all of the great parts - which is so easily done after the breakdown of anything - but then strongly reminding myself that I have come too far to come back. I have been locked in this weird little personal battle and I refuse to be defined by it.”
“Love” is the second single taken from Blooms' forthcoming Still EP (release date announced this summer). Produced by P*nut and Gil Lewis, the track offers a glimpse of what’s to come from Cunnane’s newly created Skin on Skin Records and serves as a follow up to 2014’s If EP.
