August 4th, 2023 — Los Angeles, CA — Cian Ducrot today completes his arrival as a major new artist and lifelong ambition as he releases his eagerly anticipated debut album Victory — LISTEN HERE. The Irish singer-songwriter has enjoyed a succession of landmark moments leading up to its release, the most recent of which came when “Heaven” was playlisted at Radio 1.
Other highlights have included two Top 20 UK singles with “All For You” and “I’ll Be Waiting”; huge shows as guest to Ed Sheeran and Dermot Kennedy, surpassing over half a billion streams across tracks; and a stream of engaging fan interactions – from one-to-one duets to attention-grabbing flash mobs – which have resulted in a huge following across social media. Yet for all his instantly engaging charisma, Cian’s catalogue of classic melodies and highly relatable lyrics come from personal experiences and often immensely challenging emotions. Whether he’s lamenting the loss of a late friend (“Part of Me”), celebrating the relationship with his brother, in spite of a tough upbringing (“Heaven”), or accepting that ghosts of past romances (“Everyone Who Falls In Love”). Collectively, Victory more than lives up to its title. Backed by an army of support – from family and friends to a growing fanbase – Cian has risen above his life challenges to achieve something that few people ever experience. Speaking on his debut album, Cian says, “This album represents that victory, the victory of self-belief, the victory of everyone around me who I love and who loved me back, the story of my brother, of my mother, of my grandparents, of my friends, and everyone who fought by our side every step of the way, the victory of love and the victory of never giving up. This album is for all of those people, my family and friends, you know who you are, we made it out alive and more. This is for us.”
