Stephen Gormley, the visionary artist behind Moon Looks On, invites listeners on a westward journey with his latest single, ‘The West Wind Blows’. Crafted in a moment of deep reflection, Gormley’s new track is a lyrical ode to the rugged beauty of the west of Ireland, blending poignant nostalgia with optimism for the future.

“I was dreaming of the west of Ireland when I wrote this story. It’s a song about looking back over your life and holding on to optimism for things to come. It’s a tip of the hat to the past, the present, and the future in equal measure.”

‘The West Wind Blows’ is a masterful blend of introspection and melody, showcasing Stephen Gormley’s ability to capture the essence of human emotion in his music. He continues to establish himself as a profound storyteller and a beacon of authenticity in the music world.
