Sliding a Be My Baby-esque beat underneath what could pass as an ancient Gaelic anthem, ex-Kid Sam singer-songwriter Kieran Ryan soars solo on the latest track to be lifted from his self-titled debut. He paints a rich landscape while showing glimpses of fragility, anchoring the sense of abounding triumph with deft melancholic touches.
