‘Hold Me Like You Wanna,’ dropped in June and appeared on New Music Friday and The Indie List, two taste-making Spotify playlists.
Lead vocalist Cian of Somebody’s Child described the Dublin outfit's recently released 20-Something EP:
“20-Something is the first real taste of who I want to be as an artist and as a songwriter. It’s inspired by music I actually listen to on a regular basis.
“Everything before this has just been to test the waters, but for the first time since this started it feels like this is what I’m really about,” he said.
Topics on the EP range from anger and disillusionment with the powers that be, to a nostalgic love song about friendship.
Themes of personal growth permeate throughout, with a DIY attitude being evident in its overall sound and feel. 20-Something is in equal parts refined and expansive, being the most powerful and representative artistic statement of his work so far.
The pop-rock tracks were written in a pre-pandemic environment, but the seismic changes in the world since their inception has given new and deeper meanings to their subject matter, making the songs even more important to the artist and his band.

Keen on not shying away from real world problems, Cian’s lyrics comment on personal and political issues.
In opening himself up, he hopes 20-Something connects with the listener on a much deeper level than before.
