Producer, songwriter, composer and performer Sheridan Tongue releases albums under his artist moniker IN-IS.
Belfast-born composer Sheridan Tongue is celebrating the upcoming release of his new concept album 2068 by sharing his second single, 'Broken Ones', featuring Haula.
The concept album centres around what the world will appear like in 50 years, using creativity to portray an era which is equal parts desolate and hopeful for humanity.
Utilising strings, synth, modern classical and drone music to create the darker melodic track, 'Broken Ones' showcases IN-IS' talent for sleek electronic production and beautiful construction of sound.
2068 will see the artist collaborate with Haula, Ireland's Ailbhe Reddy, Tom Adams, Iran's Ava Bowers, Johny Satellitesister, David Gledhill and Germany's Alev Lenz.
IN-IS released the track 'Daydream' with Dublin-based folk pop singer Ailbhe Reddy back in June of this year - his first solo music in four years.
