Apella – Point Of View
Anthemic pop par excellence.
Named after the popular deliberative assembly in the Ancient Greek city-state of Sparta, Apella ponder romantic heartbreak with a rousing chorus that would make the most hardened warrior cry into his shield.
Led by Dubliner Dara Quilty (top) – last seen around these parts belting out Rare Ould Times with his da in The Goat bar – Apella’s video was directed by Andrew Holohan.
Debut album 1963 is released on January 29, 2021.
Dara says:
“I had a goal to produce and record an entire album before I was 30 and I did it. I waited for too long to release this but now is the time. This is my life’s work, this is my twenties. I paid for the entire production of the record myself and I am truly excited to put it out into the world!”
Nick says: Greece lightning.
