'Better Days' is the first of six singles to come from Fia Moon in 2020.
Irish singer-songwriter, Fia Moon returns with six heartfelt anthems exploring the emotional struggles of heartbreak and healing that anyone can groove to.
Drawing on influences of R&B, pop, soul and jazz, each song tells a different story, taking you on a journey on building back confidence, self-assuredness, empowerment and acceptance.
Her first single, ‘Better Days’ is out now and touches on loss and insomnia, while also expressing perseverance and determination to never give up.
Fia explains, “When we wrote the song, I had only done a handful of sessions and didn’t really know what I was doing. I was struggling to balance a break-up, music stuff, moving house, and a full-time job, which I later quit. So, in a short space of time, my whole life had suddenly been totally uprooted and in a big city like London," - she says "you can feel very alone. The lyrics - it’s 5 in the morning’ is just me lying awake at night, questioning myself, unsure whether I was on the right path.”

“When I think of the song, I think of the contrast between light and dark, day and night, and between beauty and pain,” Fia explains in regards to her thought process as the song came together. While inherently poppy, the song is dark and atmospheric through the verses before slowly climbing to an uplifting, upbeat crescendo as the chorus kicks in.
