Americana from Roisin O’Hagan

Based in Essex in the UK, Roisin O’Hagan is a twenty-four-year-old singer-songwriter making her own brand of Americana pop music. Since the age of twelve, she’s been writing, recording and performing music and developing her artistic skills for half her lifetime.

Now signed to Strategia Management under the mentorship of Neal Handforth, Roisin recently made a musical pilgrimage to Nashville, Tennessee where she spent time writing with other accomplished artists and recording in prestigious studios such as John McBride’s Blackbird Studio. Following the release of “Sunset Valley” and “Road From Nevada” – two singles lifted from her upcoming EP – and making her full band debut live performance on the main stage at Tennessee Fields Festival, she now brings us her recent track titled “Wild & Free”.

Offering the blend of pop, rock, Americana and country styles that Roisin O’Hagan has perfected while making her own, “Wild & Free” is an uplifting and joyous song full of charm and memorable writing. Recorded between Nashville and Edinburgh, the artist crafts a vibrant arrangement of guitar-based instrumentation carried by her compelling vocal delivery with rich storytelling lyrics about newfound romance.

Marking the halfway point in the run up to her forthcoming EP release, “Wild & Free” showcases an artist at the top of her game. Commenting on the single, she shares, “I wrote Wild & Free with the aim of capturing the feelings and fears that come in the early stages of newfound romance, and the moment that you ultimately make the decision to dive into the deep end. When you find yourself in the wake of something new, but others have opinions on it, you have to make a choice; to let other people’s outside noise hold you back from something that could be amazing, or to put yourself first and go for it.”

Adding, “Life and love do not go in straight, simple, predetermined lines. There will always be someone that has something to say about what you choose to do and who you choose to love. I wanted Wild & Free to resemble the acknowledgement of people’s attempts to dictate your actions with their opinions and the ultimate choice you make to throw caution to the wind, because what you are experiencing is worth every bit of the risk.”
