Freya Ridings told Apple Music about the song, “Celtic music and gospel music have a huge thing in common. There’s a huge, deep well of pain and suffering inside of a whole people. For me, I definitely feel that in my Irish roots, and it’s something hugely important to me. It’s four incredible gospel vocalists on this track. They sang lots of different versions and we layered it up. We all stood in a room, clapped and sang in different places to make it sound like there were more people.”
The debut album comprises of 12-track and reached No. 3 on the UK Albums chart.- source : YouTube
