Sorcha Richardson’s debut album ‘First Prize Bravery’ was the culmination of her experiences throughout young adulthood, a time during which she ventured from home in Dublin to New York, Los Angeles and then back again. Greeted by critical acclaim from Nylon, The Irish Times, DIY and more, comparisons were made with Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers et al, leading to a nomination for the Choice Music Prize.

Three years later, and after a string of support tours with Villagers, Mitski and James Vincent McMorrow, she returned with ‘Smiling Like an Idiot,’ an album written mostly in her late grandparents house and recorded at The Clinic Recording Studios in Dublin. Thematically, it highlights a pursuit of happiness and the full-blown intensity of new love, as well as her relationship to her native city.

The album topped the Irish Independent Charts and reached number 4 in in the Irish Album Charts, with the Irish Times calling it “a superior second album in every way.”
