Holylight Releases COLOSSAL NEW SINGLE ‘EVERYTHING GOES’

Holylight’s sound is one of captivating juxtaposition: Heavy, grungy guitar riffs

meet infectious drum beats and lush, sparkling synths, culminating in candid

lyrics that allow listeners to sink into the introspective core of each release.

Their latest single ‘everything goes' feels like dropping out of the sky. It beautifully encapsulates the paradox of finding rest in a fast moving-world, and fearlessly floating down the river of time that stops for no one.

The song was born out of the simultaneous cruelty and kindness that is time

passing, “like getting handed a coffee by your favourite barista for the very last time,

or realising that it has been two whole years since you’ve last thought about the ex you swore you’d never get over.”

On the pertinent symbolism of time as a river in the song, Holylight quotes Alan

Watts: “Change–and everything is change; nothing can be held on to–to the degree

that you go with a stream, you see, you are are still, you are flowing with it. But to the

degree you resist the stream, then you notice that the current is rushing past you and

fighting you. So swim with it, go with it, and you’re there. You’re at rest.”

‘everything goes’ radiates Holylight’s raw sincerity, fusing a candid singer-songwriter style with the hypnotizing feel of 90s grunge-gaze that continuously paints the monumental picture of their music.

Holylight is a soulful yet heavy queer alt-rock outfit based in Dublin, and the moniker of songwriter, frontwoman, producer and multi-instrumentalist Alex Rosenberger. A finalist in Hayley Williams’ CoverNation Contest and DublinCityFM’s first ever Queeriosity ‘Artist of the Month’, Holylight’s heavy yet ethereal sound has graced the stages of The Sound House, Fibber Magees, Anseo and The Sugar Club, earning media support from Hot Press, Golden Plec, StarFish Magazine, McGig Music, Hidden Track, and many more, all while garnering over 30,000 streams.
