The single creates a lush, captivating soundscape along with powerful lyrics referencing nature and the concept of reality. Ryan touches on the dark side of social media and phone addiction in today's society, promoting unrealistic expectations:

The media compares us to each other
Illusion of Blue Screens moving further
Superficial world, technological dream
Can’t you see it’s not real it’s all a Dream

'Brigh Blue Screens' reflects "the beautiful, the powerful and the unreachable; unveiling the artifice and leaving the darkness and loneliness lurking underneath...," says the press release, adding that the single "contrasts what is real against the distorted perfection displayed within the world of blue screens."

It is set to be released on August 12 with a video, but you can already give it a listen on Spotify, alongside Ryan's other songs. Her unique folk voice is a great addition to the Irish music scene and it is safe to say that the Kildare-born singer, now based in Cork city, was quick to earn her stripes.

In 2017, she released her debut single 'Belle' which was an immediate success since it went on to win "Best New Comer" and "Best New Single" on Dublin CityFM. Her second single 'Euphoric Call' came out in February 2018 and also generated great response. This was followed by her debut EP Glitter Skies that same year.

She was crowned New Folk Artist of the Year 2018 at the Irish Folk Music Awards - an achievement for someone only starting her career. Over the last two years, the young talent has toured with the likes of  Mick Flannery, Martin Harley, John Spillane, Wally Page, Luka Bloom, Cry Monster Cry and Emma Langford.
