With this new single Jim McHugh lets us hear how he has progressed his rock sound in an organic way, never wavering from his roots in crunchy guitars and anthemic riffs but always developing as a songwriter and raising his game sonically.
Working alongside producer Alex Borwick (Parliament Funkadelic, Catfish & The Bottlemen, Niamh Regan, Lankum) and session musicians Paul McCabe (bass) Paul Sherry (Electric Guitar) and Butch McNeill (Drums), McHugh brings a new dynamic and alluring sound to the rock genre.
About ‘Dave’ Jim says….”In an original story of misspent youth, Dave unveils my interactions with a friend who was known for being on the wrong side of the law on numerous occasions.”
McHugh’s previous releases have been added to RTE 1’s Recommends list, been premiered by Hot Press Magazine, been Album of The Week at KCLR, been All Out Local Song Choice at LMFM and had extensive regional, national and international airplay.
With this new release he is whetting his fans appetite for an exciting new album and what will surely be a live set that will have any room in the country strumming their air guitars and banging their heads to the sweet riffs!!
