Anamoe Drive

Anamoe Drive is the solo moniker of songwriter & multi-instrumentalists Oisín Leahy Furlong. Fresh off the heels of the first track “Goodbye & Goodluck” garnering attention for it’s distinct brand of lo-fi indie meets alt folk, Anamoe Drive announced the debut album “Breakfast in Bed” due March 8th 2024 on Faction Records.

This news also comes with the announcement of the fourth single “Procrastination” dropping on Feb 22nd, and a string of Irish dates that begin in Dublin the day after the album drops, and include a London show opening for The Murder Capital / Fontaines DC.

The “Breakfast in Bed” LP is a breakup album told in 3 parts. The non-linear narrative flits between the throes of heartbreak to the bliss of new love, from the depths of loneliness, to the slow dissipating of these feelings in the rearview mirror.
The album’s title reflects different meanings depending on which song you view it through - from a kind gesture, to a lonely act, to the masticating of these themes in solitude. It also doubles as the place where most of these songs were written - perched on a bed, the morning after the night before, recapping these events in song.

With influences ranging from Sparklehorse to The Microphones, Bright Eyes to The Beach Boys, or Big Thief to Real Estate, Anamoe Drive brings a fresh perspective to indie folk, and is a testament to the artist’s ability to craft emotionally charged, introspective songs that leave a lasting impact.

Anamoe Drive’s musical evolution, guided by producer Rian Trench (known for his work with Saint Sister, J. Colleran, Gnod), showcases experimentation and spontaneous first takes peppered over a bedrock of airtight pop songwriting and arrangements as indebted to Daniel Johnston as they are to The Beatles. The result is a sonic tapestry that captures a confidence and authenticity that is offset by lyrical themes of vulnerability and heartbreak.
