Watch: Donegal singer-songwriter  Seán Feeny releases video for new single Galactic Tides

Galactic Tides also marks Feeny’s third creative collaboration with filmmaker Charlie Joe Doherty, who directed the official music video which was shot in the west Donegal Gaeltacht

Donegal musician  Seán Feeny has released a video to accompany his third single, Galactic Tides.

A collaboration with fellow Donegal singer, songwriter and musician Ruairí Friel of Silver Winged They Fly, Galactic Tides began with a set of lyrics Feeny wrote, an imagined journey through cosmic drift as a metaphor for emigration.

Galactic Tides also marks Feeny’s third creative collaboration with filmmaker Charlie Joe Doherty, who directed the official music video.

Shot in the west Donegal Gaeltacht, the video visually mirrors the song’s themes by placing its characters, co-writers Feeny and Friel, in a landscape both beautiful and unfamiliar. 

“We wanted the video to feel like you’ve been dropped into another world. An Carn Buí (Carnboy) and An Charraig Fhinn (Carrickfin) gave us that sense of vastness, isolation, and discovery. It’s a story about finding connection in an unknown place,” Seán said.
