A Dublin musician is set to release his new single, "Long Lost Friend" next month.

Greg Clifford will release the song on March 5 in support of his upcoming third album "Lines of Desire".

The lead track offers an American soulful sound from the multi-instrumentalist. According to Clifford, the song is about change and moving forward.

He said: “The song represents sacrifice, defiance and the darkness that suppresses you. Change is always tinged with nostalgia but you must move forward in order to survive.

“It mirrors my journey through life as well as the music industry. I’m incredibly proud of this song and I’m excited for people to hear it.”
