Watch: Joel Harkin – Charlie & Deirdre

Watch: Joel Harkin – Charlie & Deirdre

Donegal born and bred, and now residing in Belfast, Joel Harkin has come out with his first new music in a long while. While he’s been busy behind the scenes and gigging away, his new live video for ‘Charlie & Deirdre’ is a welcome release.

If you’ve witnessed Harkin perform, you’ll have experienced the deep wells of melancholy within his often dark music. On ‘Charlie & Deirdre’, he sings about his father’s departure for Spain and his girlfriend Deirdre’s move to Dublin. Across the track’s near eight minute length, Harkin explores love, relationships and absence, moving from the quietness of Harkin’s fragile vocals and guitar to heavy hitting peaks and emotive harmonies.

Joined by a cast of musicians, the track was recorded live at Belfast’s Half Bap Studios and filmed by Established Digital.
