SPILL VIDEO PREMIERE: THE BURMA – “HARD TO SAY”

THE BURMA – “HARD TO SAY”

A SPILL EXCLUSIVE VIDEO PREMIERE

We are pleased to share the official video for Irish Indie rock trio The Burma’s brand new single, ‘Hard To Say’ for the first time. The single is the last to be taken from their independent upcoming album Sucker For Stars on the 14th of October.

Proudly local, the band takes its name from The Burma Steps in Cobh, Co. Cork, Ireland. Its members are Tony O’Donovan (on vocals) and Peter Piggott (on guitar) who are both from Cobh as well as Cian Doherty (on drums) who is from Doolin Co. Clare.

Drawing inspiration from The Strokes, Tame Impala and Daft Punk, the band has created a signature sound comparable to Glass Animals, MGMT and Foster the People.

The official music video for ‘Hard To Say’ runs counter to the polished productions that modern listeners are accustomed to. The rebellious band plays their hearts out in a warehouse setting, and lines of pixels streak the screen as if security cameras are keeping a watchful eye on them.

Why? Because The Burma is rebellious and bold, and who knows what exhilarating trouble. The Burma gives us insight into the single: “We wrote ‘Hard to Say’ in our late teens/early twenties. There’s youthful angst evident in the lyrics. Our love for this song is demonstrated by the fact that it made it on to our new album,  despite being a song from our formative years as a band. it’s an explosive song that has never left our live set since the first time we played it.”.
