An upbeat alternative single that’s charming.
Irish/Australian Conor Hamilton-Long is a multi-talented singer-songwriter whose music spans various genres, with a primary focus on alt-pop and alt-R&B. Drawing from his personal experiences of growth, heartache, and the myriad emotions of life, Conor creates music that resonates deeply with listeners. His inspirations include Hozier, Miguel, Jordan Rakei, and Justin Timberlake. Conor says, “Whilst writing music is my primary outlet of self-expression, I also hope that those who listen can find something relatable in their own interpretation, helping them enjoy the good times and get through the bad times.” Recently, Conor moved back to Australia after spending 21 years in Ireland. His latest release is the alternative single “By The Way.”
With a seriously sweet blend of melodic guitar and catchy beats, “By The Way” provides a delightfully uplifting backdrop that perfectly complements its relatable exploration. Lyrics like “She takes my hand and said this won’t happen again, I can’t believe I’ve been swayed,” and “I don’t even want to tell you the truth, but you got to know girl, ’cause you’re the one stuck to me like glue” see the artist intimately reflecting on unhealthy relationships and confronting past mistakes. Fueled by wonderfully warm vocals and a feel-good R&B soundscape, Conor Hamilton-Long gifts us with an upbeat alternative single that’s totally charming. So press play and hear why the artist is ready to move on from a bad situation with “By The Way.”
