Local singer-songwriter Oliver Cronin has got me grooving with his irresistible new single, “Eyes Wide Shut.” This super catchy pop track marks a new era for Oliver’s music.
“Being the first single off my next project ‘Eyes Wide Shut’ represents a shift to a more organic, authentic and vulnerable sound,” Oliver explained. “Over the last 12 months I’ve been exploring and blurring the lines of pop and RNB, and this song is the perfect way to introduce this next sound. Lyrically, this next era is a bit of a shift to a more personal tone, focused around love and growth. With that being said we wanted ‘Eyes Wide Shut’ to kind of serve as an ‘anti-cheating’ anthem.”
Oliver is already massive online, with 1.1 million followers on TikTok and another 398,000 on Instagram. Something tells me his popularity is bound to grow as he releases more music from his next project.
