Claude says:The Irish singer-songwriter from Rathcoole who learned guitar at 11 and built a following busking on Dublin's Grafton Street released this EP a year before Spotify playlists would launch him worldwide. It's stripped-back folk with a voice that leans hard into emotional force — not quite the folk-hip-hop blend he'd refine later, but you can hear the raw intensity taking shape. You gave it a single spin two years after release and never circled back.
