Summer Anthem Reinvented by Moncrieff - Musician Moncrieff set to deliver a summertime soundtrack.
Ireland, the tiny dancer, continues to reign supreme in the musical landscape, churning out talent as if it's going out of style. One shining star, Moncrieff, is now stealing hearts and radio waves with his debut album, "Maybe It's Fine." Based in London, this soulful, R&B, pop-infused musician is about to set the world ablaze with his twelve-track masterpiece. In November, Moncrieff embarks on a nine-city tour across Germany.
Genre and Length:
Defying traditional genre categories, this maverick finds solace between soul, R&B, pop, and electronic music. The album clocks in at 39 minutes with twelve earworm-inducing tracks.
Sound:
Picture this: your backyard soiree, the embers of the campfire flicker, the stars twinkle, and "Something to You" belts out amidst laughter and good cheer. This is just one of the gems hidden within the "Maybe It's Fine" album, a summer soundtrack that you'll be humming long after the sun sets. "Hard Feelings" delivers a reckoning that Harry Styles might find intimidating. In stark contrast, "Maybe It's Fine" boasts a more raw and unpolished vibe compared to Moncrieff's earlier works.
Themes:
Moncrieff's music paints a vivid portrait of emotional landscapes, channeling real-life experiences and universal themes like love, heartache, relationships, loss, and self-discovery. Tragically, Moncrieff lost both his sister and brother within two years of his teenage years. In light of these losses, mental health and personal growth take center stage within his melodies.
The Name:
Born Chris Breheny, Moncrieff took his stage name from a London banker who offered a thoughtful word of encouragement following an emotional performance.
Collaborations and Kudos:
Moncrieff has had the pleasure of lending his angelic voice to Adele during a BBC performance, and boasts the praises of none other than Elton John and Avicii. Tragically, an anticipated studio session with Avicii never came to fruition due to his untimely death in 2018.
Background:
Hailing from County Waterford, Moncrieff was one of few boys who gravitated towards the lyrical arts among his sports-obsessed peers. After studying law, he embraced music wholeheartedly, finding it liberating after years of rigorous schooling.
Identity:
Moncrieff presents himself on Instagram as a man who can swing a hurley stick one moment and strut his stuff in heels the next. He fiercely resists being categorized, neither musically nor sexually.
Recommended Listens:
The heart-wrenching "How It Ends" is an essential listen. "Holding On" and "Float" each tug at your emotional strings, while "Float" reminds us all that we belong exactly where we are, imperfections and all. Moncrieff asserts, "Float' is about letting go and shedding that weight."

Devotees of Harry Styles and Taylor Swift will find "Maybe It's Fine" right up their alley, as will fans of pop-infused R&B. So, grab your sunscreen, flip-flops, and headphones—the summer soundtrack has arrived!
