Track Of The Day: Pauric O'Meara, 'Final Say'

Following his lauded performance on the Hot Press Lockdown Sessions' Y&E Series last month, we're thrilled to present Pauric O'Meara's new single, 'Final Say', as our Track Of The Day!

'Final Say' is the Co. Tipperary singer-songwriter's first single of the year, arriving after a phenomenal 2020, which saw the release of his acclaimed Looking Forward to Hindsight EP. Pauric has rapidly established himself as a serious force to be reckoned with on the Irish scene, with high-profile support slots for the likes of Hermitage Green and Hudson Taylor, and headliners at The Soundhouse and The Workman's Club in Dublin.

His new single is a moving exploration of a relationship that was hampered by external factors.

‘’My lyrics and melody take the listener on a real journey from heartbreak to acceptance," he explains. "I wrote this song about my own raw emotional experience of losing somebody I loved, that I tried my hardest to hold onto, eventually realising the love was one-sided, and how the 'Final Say' was beyond my control."

Listen to 'Final Say' below.

Pauric O'Meara plays Winthrop Avenue, Cork (November 26) and Upstairs At Whelan's, Dublin (December 10).
