Ireland's rising star SON, Susan O’ Neill, has released her latest single - a cover of The Rolling Stones 'Gimme Shelter.' It was produced by O'Neill and Irish musician Simon O'Reilly. Her previous single 'Baby Talk' was released earlier this year.

“I decided to take a new approach to a song that I love. It was cool to slow down the words and explore the sounds in a very personal way, sitting in them for a while, and trying on a new feeling,” said SON in a press release.

In wake of this year's upended fears and pandemic, people are seeking comfort for what will come after this time. The Rolling Stone originally released the song during the Vietnam War era and beginning to many civil rights movements around the world. Today's world is once again experiencing an uprising of societal change and voices fighting for what they believe in.

SON’s first album 'Found Myself Lost,' came out in 2018. It was titled one of Hot Press Magazine's 'Albums of the Year.'

SON will open for Mick Flannery at The Balor Theatre in Co.Donegal on October 23. Her and Flannery plan to perform together with Mick at The Sligo Live festival. She will then perform two sold-out shows at The Royal Spa Theatre in Lisdoonvarna on October 24. On November 12, she will take over Theatre Royal in Waterford. More of her show dates are yet to be announced.
