Track of the Day: WARD - 'Mona Lisa'
Sean Ward is quickly becoming an artist who regularly delivers radio ready pieces of bedroom pop.
Taken from WARD's highly-anticipated debut EP Strawberry Jam, 'Mona Lisa' is full of sonic warmth and chilled out vibes, plus an addictive low-fi hip-hop beat.
With WARD's quick lyrical flow, exploring falling straight into the deep end as a result of your weaknesses, the '90s-sounding alternative banger showcases the teen's endless potential.
2020 offerings 'Romeo', 'Light Switch' and 2021's 'In Two Minds' laid the groundwork for the talent's foray into the Irish music scene, displaying a flair for DIY beats and irrepressible grooviness.
Strawberry Jam is Sean Ward's tribute to summer, featuring groovy basslines, heavy drum grooves, punchy choruses and dashes of guitar goodness deposited throughout the running time.
Impressively, 18-year-old multi-instrumentalist and producer WARD, hailing from Waterford, has only producing music for under two years. The only way is up for a musician who has such a natural instinct for production, we can't wait to see what the future holds.
