Gibbons who has praised Emmet’s talent which is a huge compliment from a Carlow native who has a publishing deal with the London-based Good Soldier Songs and also hit singles such as “Hotstepper” and “Your Love”. Both singles received significant radio airplay in both the UK and Ireland.

‘Home’ is a song produced by Emmet Glascott and encapsulates vocals by OMZ, who Emmet also teamed up with to co-write the song. The single features a unique mix of rock and dance. With powerful electric guitar accompanied by some gentle piano and a powerful dance drop. The song encapsulates live guitar recorded by Emmet. It’s an unusually unique blend of rock and dance – a perfect mix.

According to his website, www.emmetglascott.com he sources inspiration from Kygo, Calvin Harris, and Avicii who all also have a distinctive sound. Glascott first started listening to music through the acoustic sounds of Ed Sheeran, who Emmet describes as the reason why he has picked up a guitar and has used many acoustic elements on his tracks.

Radio presenters have compared Emmet’s sound to that of Avicii. Emmet has stated he has collaborations “with some of his favourite artists” still to come.

Vocalist OMZ who features on this track, has amassed twenty-eight million+ Spotify streams, has worked under the likes of dance group Swedish House Mafia and has tracks signed to Universal, Warner, and Sony.
