Badhands, the musical project of songwriter and musician, Daniel Fitzpatrick, has dropped the visual for single 'Monday Morning', which you can check out below. The track comes from debut album Predictable Boy which was released November 9.
The album began as a collaboration with producer and bass player Tom Cosgrave (The Minutes), and quickly evolved into a more expansive project with the enlistment of multi-instrumentalist Aoife Ruth, drummer Ken Mooney, and engineer Chris Barry.
The end result is a collection of vivid, textured songs that range in tone between dark and brooding to frantic and energetic, with moments of genuine euphoria weaved in to the mix.
With a strong focus on lyrics and vocals the album explores themes such as laziness, loneliness, loss and madness. The record is an intimate one but also has an accessibility that quickly captures the imagination of the listener.
Predictable Boy marks Fitzpatrick's first venture as a solo artist, having previously worked as a musician and songwriter for years with the likes of The Mighty Stef, The Last Tycoons, Paddy Hanna and Maud in Cahoots.
