Clancy Pye Releases Brand New Single And Music Video, ‘Feels Like Home’. First Single Off Clancy’s Highly Anticipated Debut Album – Music Video Filmed In Clancy’s Hometown, Oberon (NSW)
Central West singer-songwriter, Clancy Pye is set to release the first single off her upcoming debut album on Friday May 12th alongside a music video filmed in her hometown of Oberon, NSW.
‘Feels Like Home’ is Clancy’s first release since launching her self-titled EP in 2020 which featured two #1 iTunes Country Chart Singles, ‘Get Lost’ and ‘Heaven Can’t Wait’.
Having spent the last two years writing towards her debut album, the 2020/22 Toyota Star Maker Grand Finalist penned over 150 songs before heading into the studio to record her upcoming project.
“Songwriting has always been a real passion of mine” states Clancy. “Over recent years, I’ve delved a lot deeper into developing myself as a writer. In the process, I have been fortunate to grow a large catalogue of songs which made it exciting when it came to choosing songs to record for my debut album.”
Written by Clancy and recorded at The Vault Studios with Producer Sean Rudd, ‘Feels Like Home’ is an infectiously feel-good, guitar-driven track that embodies Clancy’s country roots. Having grown up on a property outside Oberon (NSW), Clancy drew a lot of inspiration for this song reflecting on her own family home and upbringing in the country.
“One of the strongest connections I think we all have in life, is our connection to home and those simple things that make us feel at home, wherever we may be.”
“As we go through life, I think we often come to think of ‘home’ as not necessarily a place, but a feeling and I wanted this song to capture those sentiments that other people might relate to as well.”
“Where I grew up has in many ways shaped the person I’ve become and what’s important to me. This song really sets the tone for the album which is why we wanted to release it first.”
Teaming up with Orange based video directors, Dave Smyth and Toby Howell (The Studio Door Creative), Clancy went back to her hometown of Oberon to film a music video which will accompany her single release.
“I really wanted to showcase the place that most feels like home to me in the music video. It was nice to go back to Oberon and film many of the locations I had in my mind when I was writing the song. It’s special to be able to share the places I grew up and my hometown in the video.”
With more songs in the pipeline for release, Clancy looks forward to sharing more music throughout 2023.
