Track of the Day: Callum Orr, 'As Long As I Have Time'

Irish folk singer Callum Orr has dropped the sweetest new track filled with sincere, adoring vocals over romantic guitar strings, and gentle violin.

Radiating hope for a blossoming relationship, ‘As Long As I Have Time’ is
a glistening new track about budding romance that was inspired by the start of Callum’s long-distance relationship with his wife.

“I wrote this in 2020 when I met my now-wife online, and we conducted this nuts long-distance relationship without ever having met, because she lived in Canada,” Orr said of the track. “I was stuck living on my own during lockdown, but feeling this immense sense of excitement and meaning with a new relationship.”

‘As Long As I Have Time’ is the second off Callum’s debut album The Trials of Knowing, which will be released on 12 July and be celebrated with a launch show at The Workman’s Cellar on 20 July.

The track is comparatively stripped-back next to Orr’s first single off the album, ‘Crushing Machine’, and is bolstered by the harmonic backing vocals of co-producer Ailbhe Reddy.

The Trials of Knowing, co-produced by Orr and Ailbhe Reddy, was recorded between Asta Kalapa studios in Wexford, Orr’s home in Dublin 7, and various other spaces in Dublin.

Tickets for the upcoming album launch on July 20 are available here.
