‘After the Fact’ is the brand-new single from Scottish Album of the Year Award nominated Glasgow-based Irish singer-songwriter Claire McKay, AKA Martha Ffion.
Available to stream and share on 7th May 2020 via digital platforms, and also available as a postcard single as part of Lost Map’s PostMap Club subscription service, it’s the first taste of Claire’s forthcoming much-anticipated second album Nights to Forget, which will be released on August 14, 2020 on 12” vinyl and via digital platforms.
An harmonic sunshine pop song with a disquieting undertow, juxtaposing lilting vocals with dissonant stabs of off-kilter guitar, ‘After the Fact’ was written a couple of summers ago, at a time when Claire was, she says, “questioning things I could have done differently in the wake of a difficult event”.
