A SINGER who filmed a hugely successful pop video in Donegal is lining up her new next hit song.
Singer-songwriter Chloe Wilders shot the video on a windswept Lisfannon Beach.
The beautiful beach on the bay of Lough Swilly, near the village of Fahan, has attracted lots of attention online.
After a decade-long hiatus to raise two children, former Voice of Ireland star Chloe has now revealed that another single is set to follow before the release of an as-yet-untitled album in the New Year.
She is preparing to release new single Inside Every Song and, at the same time, has spoken of the “pressure of mental health struggles and relationship issues”.
A teaser of the track emerged online last week, giving fans a first glimpse of her new material and marking her first original release in 11 years.
The former contestant on RTE’s Voice of Ireland singing contest says she is delighted to be back after taking time away from music to focus on family life and overcome personal challenges.
Chloe Wilders is set to release her new single Inside Every Song.
Chloe said: “It’s great to be back writing and performing again.
“This is my first song in 11 years after taking time out to focus on doing mummy things with my two kids.
“There has also been the added pressure of mental health struggles and relationship issues, which I’m now thankfully through. I’m enjoying getting the creative juices flowing once more.”
An avid fan of English singer James Arthur and a proud member of his ‘J-Army’ fanbase, Chloe says the chart-topping artist played a significant role in inspiring her latest release.
Chloe, who is from border town Strabane, said: “I’ve always been a huge fan of James. His music has always been a huge inspiration to me.
“He also writes and sings about his own struggles with mental health and as a way of tribute I have incorporated some of his song titles into the lyrics for Inside Every Song.
“People familiar with his music can spot them as they listen to my tune.
“Given what the song is about, there’s a tendency to think it’ll be a sad, ballad type song but nothing could be further from the truth.
“Inside Every Song is actually an upbeat song, more about coming out at the other end of struggles rather than being in the middle of them. I’m very proud of it.”
It was the accompanying video for this single that was filmed on Lisfannon.
