Alpine Skies Releases New Song “Walls”
Dublin-based alt-rock band Alpine Skies, consisting of Kevin Homan (vocals/guitar) and Darren Farrell (guitar), released a new song “Walls” on August 7, 2025.
The song is the second single off of their upcoming debut album “Inspired Conflicts”, following “By Your Side” released back in June. The debut album is expected to be released in 2025.
Alpine Skies wrote, produced and recorded the track at Little Bear Studios in Dublin. Mastered by Gabe Wolf in his home studio in Los Angeles.
The song is a powerful alternative rock track whose ethos stems from optimism and holds the value of memories at its core, valuing not loss or absence but the fact that something ever was.
The track features Gavin Fox on bass and Paul 'Binzer' Brennan on drums.- The band lead singer Kevin Homan said of the song, “The overall style is one of a relentless drive to cling on to those possibilities. Listening to, and experimenting with alternate tunings at home during the writing process, allowed the whole structure of "Walls" to take shape. The song and melody followed closely to that idea of hope within your grasp, and followed a relentless drive through least path resistance toward those possibilities.”

He continued, “Aside from myself and Darren's performances, we also had the added abilities and musicianship of Gavin Fox (Vega4, Idlewild, Turn, Little Matador and Concerto for Constantine) and Paul 'Binzer' Brennan (Founding member of The Frames, The Waterboys, Bellx1, Gemma Hayes, Mundy, Little Matador, Concerto for Constantine) tracking the recording of bass and drums in the live studio, which provided a solid foundation to build upon. The challenge thereafter was in doing justice to their great ability!”
