After four years of producing, writing and collaborating with established artists in Berlin, Leixlip-born singer-songwriter Enda Gallery launched his solo project – delush. Fresh from the release of his debut solo album, Journey To Zero, he treated us to an intimate set on the Hot Press Lockdown Sessions' Y&E Series.

After building up anticipation for the performance with a stunning piano cover of Sufjan Steven's 'Concerning the UFO Sighting near Highland, Illinois', delush was joined by Derek Ullenboom on guitar as he showcased his unique artistry from the candlelit setting of his home studio. Among the highlights of the set was the premiere of an as-of-yet-unreleased track, 'Old Fashioned'.

Revisit delush's performance on the Y&E Series, supported by the Department of Media, Tourism, Arts, Culture, Sport and the Gaeltacht, below:
