Following a sold-out UK tour earlier this year, Irish singer-songwriter Nell Mescal has shared her latest single ‘Warm Body,’ the second release to be lifted from her debut EP Can I Miss It For A Minute?, out 3rd May.

A heart-on-sleeve moment of catharsis, Mescal described the new track as “a song about struggling to move on from past situations and how that affects making new relationships. It’s about growing up and navigating relationships with the worry that the people you love will leave you.” The single comes as a follow-up to Mescal’s recent slew of releases as she continues to find inspiration in her childhood, friendships, Irish roots and family.

This past year, the Kildare native has been a force to be reckoned with on the live circuit, performing at top-tier festivals like Latitude, All Point East, Kendall Calling and Electric Picnic, as well as finding herself handpicked to support A-listers HAIM, Florence & The Machine, Dermot Kennedy and The Last Dinner Party.

Headlining an explosive UK tour in January, the rising star was able to showcase new material from her debut EP to sold-out crowds. “Can I Miss it for a Minute? is a concept EP written about growing up, moving away, friendship breakups and trying to navigate between current emotions and negative memories” Mescal explained. “Each song tells a part of the same story with a beginning, middle and an end. Some songs written in the moment and some written in retrospect. It talks about my life and how I deal with experiences that have shaped me. Most importantly I think it’s about moving on from things that used to have a hold on me.”
