Backseat Mafia favourite Rianne Downey has shared her latest single ‘Dancing In The Rain’, all about marking the memory of lost love by celebrating youthful abandon. The track is taken from her third EP, ‘Method To My Madness’ which is due on the 9th of June before a summer of hotly-anticipated live dates including her just-announced debut appearance at Glastonbury.
Downey says:
“Dancing In The Rain encapsulates that brief moment between a relationship ending and something new beginning and the conflicting baggage that comes with it: guilt, heartbreak, hope, emancipation. Musically, think of a festival in British summertime: grey clouds are circling above, but the sun begins to emerge. It’s the last-chance dance, snatching joy in the face of adversity.”
A glorious upbeat track that’s guaranteed to raise a smile with its infectious dance floor beat and folky guitar work. Downey never disappoints with her bright vocals that manage to encapsulate the magical feeling of dancing in the rain.
