UK Artist of the Week: ESSIRAY

Coming all the way from Dublin this week, Irish newcomer ESSIRAY has already made quite the splash with the release of her new single “Mr Perfect,” out now.

An indie-pop delight from the offset, “Mr Perfect” combines hints of soul, pop, and indie creating something truly mesmerizing and instantly infectious. Talking about the single, ESSIRAY, aka Rachel Murphy, explains, “’Mr Perfect’ isn’t about one person or one situation, for me it’s about the combination of emotions I’ve felt thoughout my early twenties and navigating my love life.

As a young woman in this male dominated society it can often feel like we’re being told how to act and how to present ourselves; trying to live up to this societal standard created by men. The track also has a lighthearted undertone of coming out of a relationship, those rose tinted glasses coming off and you’re just feeling happy in yourself.”

The single has already seen support from the likes of New Music Friday UK and Fresh Finds Pop on Spotify, and we expect great things are to come from this vibrant Irish native. Watch this space…

“Mr Perfect” is in stores now.
