Irish indie pop musician Holly Munro releases her new single ‘Dead Ends,’ off the back of a promising year.

The track powerfully conveys the message that every decision we make has a profound impact on our future. It urges us to seize the opportunities that come our way and to avoid the pain of regret.

Holly’s debut EP “Up Against Your Nature” released in November 2023, received exposure on UK radio, with features on BBC 6music and John Kennedy’s Radio X show. Her three singles were also prominently featured on Spotify’s New Music Friday UK.

“I wrote this song after finishing a meditation that involved seeing my footprints in the sand from above. It got me thinking about my life as one big journey with all these powerful detours along the way – some paths you start on but never continue, just as some parts of yourself remain unexplored. It’s about questioning the choices you make and reflecting on how they shape your future in ways you can’t always predict or control.”

Along with this single, the accompanying music video for ‘Dead Ends’ holds a special place in Munro’s heart, as it was shot at the precise location where the meditation that inspired the song took place.
