Brother Vice Strikes Gold with "Somebody to Love"
Starting 2025 with a big moment, Brother Vice, an indie-rock band from Armagh, Ireland, has released a powerful and emotional song called "Somebody to Love." The band, made up of James Feely (singer and guitarist), Neil Mone (lead guitarist), and Aidan Watters (drummer), is known for their natural talent and stories that people can connect with. They are quickly becoming one of the most exciting indie bands in Ireland.
"Somebody to Love" is a deeply introspective exploration of the allure and pain of toxic relationships. Lead guitarist Neil Mone eloquently explains:
We're excited to release this new single to start 2025 off with a bang. We feel it's one of our stronger singles over the last few years and can't wait for people to hear it. It will be the first of many new things to come from us throughout the year"
This emotional depth is perfectly complemented by the band’s signature blend of lush, reverberating guitars, driving grooves, and an infectious, heartfelt chorus. The track is as much an anthem of self-reflection as it is a testament to resilience, resonating with listeners on a deeply personal level.
The single was recorded, mixed, and mastered at Manor Park Studios by Neal Calderwood, a seasoned producer who has worked with notable Northern Irish acts like General Fiasco, Dea Matrona, and Red Eye Pariah. This collaboration has resulted in a polished yet authentic production that showcases the band’s artistic growth.
The creative process behind "Somebody to Love" was rooted in spontaneity and synergy, with ideas born in the practice room and refined during studio sessions. This organic approach is central to Brother Vice’s ethos and is evident in the track’s fresh and vibrant energy.
Brother Vice started in 2019 in a simple garden shed. They take inspiration from big indie bands like Sam Fender, Catfish and the Bottlemen, The Killers, and Foo Fighters. Their music mixes thoughtful lyrics with catchy tunes, making a sound that’s easy to connect with and full of energy.
The first song of the year, "Somebody to Love" starts what looks like a big and exciting 2025 for Brother Vice. The band plans to release more music this year, and they are ready to attract even more fans with their unique style of indie rock.
