Sinead O’Brien unveils new single "There Are Good Times Coming"

"There Are Good Times Coming" is accompanied by a Chloé le Drezen-directed video, and will appear on Time Bend and Break The Bower with previous singles "Holy Country" and "GIRLKIND".

O'Brien says of the new release, "It’s a hyper real, close-up look at the surroundings of this place, and a glance to the horizon. Mundane observations weave in and around concepts of RITUALS, MANIFESTATIONS, INTENTIONS. A mantra anchors me as I spin and fall in an alternate space. Watch the ripple effect of things play out; life, ideas, episodes. A subtle movement makes the biggest tremors."

"There are moments where the music is sparse and the lyrics hang around a while," O'Brien continues. "It’s a strange space, warmth and coolness in the air. Full moon, dogs barking in the distance and an empty railway station. "There Are Good Times Coming" is not a dream, it’s a restless night."

O'Brien's debut album Time Bend and Break The Bower will follow her 2020 EP Drowned in Blessings, and was recorded at Dan Carey's south London studio Mr Dan’s.

She said of the album title, "The album title Time Bend and Break The Bower, from the song "Multitudes", came into my head and made its demands, an idea that pressed on me throughout the record. It has a very active role. The clock symbol is enlarged, it looms like a moon over my activity watching, counting me down to zero. Dripping with self-sabotage and the feeling of being chased; it pulls and pushes against the verses which talk of "Multitudes"; the things that faithfully come back - the images, the words, creativity. It is creativity itself."
