The new single is taken from Davis' upcoming EP Simple Words, Complex Worlds, which will be released on January 3.
The Dublin-based duo, Gavin and Keith Davis, form the crux of folkrock band Davis, who cite as their musical reference points the likes of Bon Iver and The 1975.
Still at the fledgling stage of their career, Davis have released a bracing, anthemic tune today in the form of 'Eager'. Sparing no expense in seeking out key locations for filming, the accompanying music video for 'Eager' finds its characters trekking through rural terrains and unfamiliar cityscapes trying to find an answer to the chorus' pivotal question: "Who are you?"
Distorted faces and identity crises tie the songs thematic strains together and the simple yet effective chord progressions give this song its catchiness. We look forward to hearing more from Davis.
Davis will play live at Whelans January 19. Tickets are priced at €6.
