Acclaimed Irish singer and songwriter Gemma Hayes has released her new single ‘Another Love’, featuring fellow Irish musician Paul Noonan (Bell X1). The track comes from Hayes’ upcoming sixth album Blind Faith, due out in September and is her first new album since 2014.
‘Another Love’ is a poignant duet about two people leaning on one another for support at a time of mutual grief and is evidence that Hayes’ prowess as a storyteller is undimmed after a decade away.
“Another Love is a lament”, Hayes explains. “It deals with two characters being haunted by the ghost of someone they loved while finding comfort in each other’s arms. Both reveal that they do not love the other and that weirdly brings them closer together.”
Having taken the time and space she needed to figure out what she wants to tell the world. Hayes has plenty to say, with Blind Faith diving into themes of longing, empowerment, freedom and repression. While Hayes’ songwriting is as personal as ever, its abstract nature allows the listener to sink into each song, immersed by tender guitar picking, eerie synths and swooning cello.
Hayes will be touring the new album in September, with shows in Liverpool, Bristol, London and Leeds. Tickets can be found here.
Blind Faith will be released on 27 September 2024. Pre-order here.
