Following on from his debut EP EVA, recently released in December, Irish singer-songwriter, producer, dancer and all-round artist Adam O’Rua now shares the poetic, intimate and utterly captivating music video for single ‘Rainfall’.
The Dublin born, Brazil based creative truly embodies what it means to be a successful and sustainable artist in the current culture. Masterfully exploring and pooling his skillset across music, choreography, filmmaking and directing (to name but a few), all these talents are expertly encapsulated throughout the conception, curation and formulation of his debut project. For a DIY, independent artist, EVA is truly a feast for the senses, a testament to Adam’s artistry and an incredible body of work to behold.
A homage to both his homeland, heritage and to honour the arrival of the new season, the visual for ‘Rainfall’ is set to go live on St Patrick’s day and the weekend in which the long awaited Spring Equinox lands. Attuning to the excitement of the eagerly anticipated warmer weather and abundance of new life just waiting to burst through, Adam is harnessing this fresh beginning with the cathartic properties of rain/water and it’s capacity to cleanse the soul and the land as the purest elixir and essence of life.
‘Rainfall’ offers a glimpse into a softer and incredibly tender side to the artist allowing audiences to connect with him and his music unlike ever before. Overflowing with synergy, symbolism and exquisite cinematography, ‘Rainfall’ features contemporary style movement and sophisticated scene work, akin to the likes of the critically acclaimed TV series Normal People starring Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones.‘Rainfall’ is situated in a similar universe, shining light on the everyday and the pure magic, all-consuming nature of romance and young love.
Ever present and incredibly iambic Adam O’Rua muses, “There’s something magnificent about kissing in the rain. Just letting go of all reality and falling into the depths of your love. Allowing yourself to get caught in the most salacious of storms.”
With skilled songwriting backed up by smooth, soulful vocals Adam solidifies himself as an exciting new enigma to emerge from Ireland’s recent musical renaissance. Emanating a keen level of motivation, magnetism and infectious personality his trajectory is primed and the sky’s the limit.
