Smooth horns and warm piano chords ease you into “Rosie”—the latest single from Ireland-based singer-songwriter Stephen McCorry. Then comes his voice: tender, raspy, and full of quiet conviction. It’s the kind of voice that could stop you mid-sentence, built for dusty-road ballads and fireside confessions. Americana might not be the first genre you’d expect from an Irish artist, but McCorry wears it like a well-worn flannel.
“Rosie” is steeped in soul and sincerity. It’s a love ballad that doesn’t try too hard to be anything other than honest. McCorry leans into the beauty of simplicity, letting his voice and the instrumentation carry the emotional weight. It’s easy to picture this track nestled on a playlist alongside Ray LaMontagne, Paolo Nutini, and John Mayer. The vibe is timeless—easygoing but aching, rich with feeling without ever being overwrought.
For fans of slow-burning, heart-centered songwriting, “Rosie” is a must-listen. Stephen McCorry might be thousands of miles from the American South, but with this song, he proves that soul has no borders.
