Introducing The Irish Prince Of Pop

Shobsy, the Irish singer-songwriter whose powerful, genre-defying voice has drawn comparisons to the likes of Freddie Mercury and George Michael, just released his latest single, "Champagne."

This is Shobsy's first UK single under his independent label, Shobsy Records, and it's already establishing itself as a refreshing addition to the pop music landscape.

“Champagne” is a kaleidoscope of sounds, a "multi-coloured pop banger" that balances dizzying falsettos with a hypnotic beat. Shobsy’s vocals are truly mesmerizing, sweeping from low murmurs to soaring highs with an ease that reveals his remarkable range.

It’s clear his voice is the star of the track: wholly unique and soulful, with the power to convey both longing and celebration in equal measure. The falsetto in particular showcases his talent, lending the song an exotic, almost otherworldly quality that feels reminiscent of The Weekend or Years & Years.

Musically, "Champagne" sits comfortably beside icons like Harry Styles and Sophie Ellis-Bextor, while also paying homage to Shobsy’s influences such as George Michael, David Bowie, and Bruce Springsteen. The song’s genre-hopping nature is evident, combining synth-pop sensibilities with subtle R&B undertones, adding dimension and mood to the track.

Shobsy is more than a talented voice; his personality shines through his work and public appearances. Known for his eclectic passions – from Star Wars and David Lynch to rugby and his dachshund, Loki – he brings a unique blend of down-to-earth charm and artistic sensibility to his music.

For those who crave expressive, genre-fluid pop with serious vocal power, Shobsy is one to watch. With "Champagne," he’s set a new standard for Irish pop on an international stage, blending charisma, storytelling, and musicality in a way that makes it hard not to be excited about what’s next.
