Lauded by Remy as a “soulful R’n’B vox and an appropriately exotic brass arrangement the track is brimming with good time feels and old school funk, think a Michael Kiwanuka and Stevie Wonder duet with Alabama Shakes providing the backing band and you’ll start to get the picture.”

TOUCAN is the irresistible funk-pop brainchild of singer-songwriter, Conor Clancy, and Martin Atkinson Borrull. Clancy is a song writer and performer from Waterford, Ireland, who takes his influences from disco and soul. Atkinson Borrull is a renowned musical director, arranger and keys player. He has arranged and produced for SÍOMHA, Nile St. James, Weenz and Dirt, and has toured with The Olllam (feat. Joe Dart).

We Fell for Miles is available on all streaming services as of today, and TOUCAN’s EP will be available on March 16th.

The duo is due to play Limerick’s very own music venue Dolan’s on March 9th.
