The latest indie-pop single by Shane Rennison, “Irrational” brings out a moving look at the tough situations of relationships and a tumultuous journey to find oneself. Hailing from the beautiful Catskills in upstate New York, USA, Rennison creates indie-pop music that is charged with real and soulful power while never overpowering his emotive vocals and lyric-driven finesse.
“Irrational” throws the listener full in the face of passion and emotion from the get-go. The broad synthesisers and lulling melody set the stage for Rennison to etch a vocal line that one won’t be able to forget. Meanwhile, the dynamic structure of the piece, characterised by a distinct rhythm section and discreet guitar accents, contributes much more colour to this sensitive number.
At the centre of “Irrational” lie reflections of the convolutions and twists of human behaviour in relationships.
Shane captures the exact moments overreaction of a partner and all the damage it does, which leaves a sense of loneliness and a look within. Revisiting some of the same themes: missed opportunities, the harsh reality of self-discovery, he offers moving lyrics. Shane shares insights on the inspiration towards “Irrational,” saying it was quite personal. “This song is about when your partner overreacts to a situation and ultimately acts ‘irrationally,’ doing more harm than good”.
“You wake up one day and you’re all alone on the brand new floor that they begged you to put in. All the work of a relationship gone in an instant because they couldn’t handle the problems that they brought on themselves.”
“Irrational” will lead off the release of his new album, titled ‘IRRATIONAL,’ as he gears to release this album come June 28th, 2024. This new album is a promise from Shane to his fans of a roller-coaster ride of music that he would be offering, with different types of compositions that reach right into the soul and bring in the spirit.
So, delve deep into the emotive depths of ‘Irrational’ and experience first-hand the heartfelt storytelling and soulful melodies that paint Shane Rennison’s musical journey. Track by track, join in where he invites you on a reflective journey, through the very highs and lows of what it means to understand, and ultimately to know yourself.
