Joe Mungovan Drops Hot New Single “Give Me Your Love”

South Coast singer-songwriter Joe Mungovan brings the sexy with his cool new jam “Give Me Your Love.” Before you press play, Joe sets the scene.

“Imagine yourself on a warm summer day in a beautiful city somewhere in Europe. You’ve been spending every day exploring the city, drinking wine in the sun and everything is new and exciting. On top of all of this, you’re falling for a person you’ve just met. ‘Give Me Your Love’ is the soundtrack.”

OK, got that visual in your head? Good. Now take a listen.

Joe directed the video with Mikey Conlon in his hometown of Kiama.

“We were quite restricted with making this video,” he admitted. “The initial idea for it had to change quite drastically when the second lockdown became quite serious in NSW. I decided to make it a one-shot through my beautiful hometown of Kiama. We came up with a rough map of where we wanted to go and winged it a few times. Although we stumbled across a few hurdles (car doors not opening and lights falling over) we got there in the end.”

“Give Me Your Love” gives us a little taste of what’s in store when Joe drops his long-awaited debut album A Flower in the Weeds this November.

Joe Mungovan Drops Tasty New Single, “Lemon + Lime”

Summer might be fizzling out, but Joe Mungovan is helping us hold on to its laidback vibes a little longer with his ultra-chill new single “Lemon + Lime.” Hit play, close your eyes, and you’ll be instantly transported to the beach, mojito in hand.

Like so many great tracks, “Lemon + Lime” was inspired by a chance encounter with a girl. Joe met the mystery woman after a show in Germany. Their time might have been short-lived, but it lives on in this cracking single.

“We had a magical time together and I tried to encapsulate the feeling of that night in the sonic elements of the song,” he explained. “Lemon + Lime’ is a track I’ve been working on for about six months. During the Covid lockdown, I was living on a property in Kangaroo Valley. The space provided me with a lot of time to write music and look back on the memories made over the past years of touring and making music. The song came together a lot easier than most of my songs; it sort of just fell out. I got my mate Tim Carr down to my little studio set up I was using and we finished off the song together. The cicadas were so loud at that time of year that we had to build a soundproof booth out of blankets and cushions to record the vocals in.”

This gentle groove is just what I needed to get me through the rest of Humpday. What do you think readers?
