Live from Dublin

Shallow River Run (Live from Dublin)

“I want to be you / but I never want to say the truth to you” — it captures that mix of vulnerability and emotional detachment that defines late-night overthinking.

[Verse]
별빛 아래 내 그림자
흔들리는 마음의 바다
너의 눈 속 우주가 보여

[Prechorus]
멀리 떠나지 마
내 손을 잡아줘

[Chorus]
우주와 나와 너와 나
끝없는 밤하늘 아래서
우주와 나와 너와 나
우린 하나가 돼

[Verse 2]
은하수 위를 걷는 꿈
모래알 속 숨겨진 빛
너와 함께라면 난 충분해

[Prechorus]
멀리 떠나지 마
내 곁에 있어줘

[Chorus]
우주와 나와 너와 나
끝없는 밤하늘 아래서
우주와 나와 너와 나
우린 하나가 돼

Moments

Alt, new and indie folk blend with pop, rock and poetic introspection on this new track from Emma Hynes which is evocative of what she describes as her “own brand of ethereal longing.”

Lightly reflective too of the combined Irish and Spanish influences infusing her previous single, Sierra, Hinterland offers a further tonal and thematic flavour of what can be expected from her album when it comes out in 2026.

Don’t Give Up (On Love)

Emma Hynes is a writer, singer, musician performer and visual artist from Dublin, Ireland.

Her 2025 single releases, Hinterland and Sierra, are from her eagerly-anticipated debut album which will be out in 2026.

They are preceded by the celebrated Space Between Trilogy, 2021 – 2022.

Emma’s music sees alt, new and indie folk blend with pop, rock and poetic introspection to form something unique, and evocative of what she describes as her “own brand of ethereal longing.”

Her songs have featured on the RTÉ Radio One Recommends list, the Nova Guestlist’s Top 100 Songs of the Year on Radio Nova, and enjoyed national, international and local airplay.

Emma has played live at venues such as Dublin’s renowned Whelan’s main stage and the Irish Writers Centre, and headlined at The Workmans Club, and the Dublin Quays Festival. As resident performer with the brilliant and tireless Fuzzed Up Record Label and Live Events, she has played several times in 2025 at The Racket Space in The Bernard Shaw.

As a published and performing writer, Emma’s work has appeared in The Ogham Stone and Visual Verse: An Anthology of Art and Words which now forms part of a literary archive at Newcastle University’s Centre for the Literary Arts. She has both read and sang at the Irish Writers Centre.

Also a visual artist, Emma’s photography has been shortlisted for the prestigious RHA Annual Exhibition, exhibited on Culture Night, and features on the artwork for all her releases and music videos.

As a first-class honours graduate of literature, drama, film and television, Emma’s love of writing, reading and theatre, combined with her lifelong passion for music, and appreciation of visual art, all make for an interesting combination of poetic lyrics, accomplished melodies, thoughtful performances, and compelling artwork.
