Villagers return with the delicate and beautiful track ‘That Golden Time’, taken from the upcoming album release of the same name.
The new album will follow the journey that was Villagers’ fifth album “Fever Dreams”, as Conor O’Brien returns with his trademark harmonious songwriting.
“I wanted the warmth of the record reflected in its title. The song also touches on a theme that keeps cropping up, of romanticism versus realism. How can you have aspirational ideas about yourself and the world around you, whilst being confronted with a harsh, cold reality? The friction interested me.”
Conor O’Brien, Villagers.
The music video for ‘That Golden Time’ is excellent, directed by Rok Predin, it pays tribute to the album’s artwork which has a textbook drawing of a moth, representing the artist’s feelings towards screens and attention in our quotidian.
“The moth gets confused by the flame, and meets its timely demise.”
Conor O’Brien, Villagers.
Villagers are going to perform at London’s Royal Festival Hall in June, in addition to their biggest headline show to date in Dublin’s Trinity College this Summer.
“That Golden Time” is set for release on 10 May via Domino.
