Aaron Rowe on Electric Picnic: "I worked down there as a steward a few years ago and I’m just buzzing to get down there now as an artist"

AARON ROWE
Main Stage / Saturday, August 30

"I’ve been writing some new tunes, so I can’t wait to play them for people at Electric Picnic. After the first single, ‘Hey Ma’, I felt like ’Talking With You’, was a nice extension to that story. I felt like I needed to put those out as my first two releases, because they felt like the most personal ones to me. I love playing them. In fact, I love gigging. Gigging makes me happy!

"I’m absolutely buzzing for EP. It’s gonna be class. I worked down there as a steward a few years ago and I’m just buzzing to get down there now as an artist. Sam Fender is the headline act on the Saturday, so I’m going to watch him. I just love festivals in general, but EP is the biggest in Ireland. I wish I could see nearly everyone!"

Aaron Rowe’s latest single ‘Lose Lose’ is out now.

Electric Picnic returns to Stradbally Hall in Co. Laois from August 29–31.
