"Cathedral" pulls from early 80s and 90s influence, particularly PJ Harvey’s Rid of Me. Thematically it focuses on my experiences and struggles with accepting my sexuality - the inherent shame you feel growing up queer in Catholic Ireland, and struggles with internal homophobia. With the rise of vile anti-trans vitriol being spewed across social media and Irish media at the moment, this song is a on the nose defiant cry against them - the people banding together over hatred singing from the same outdated hymn sheet. It’s a cry of support to those of us trying to stand up for the people they consider ‘other.’ "Cathedral" is taken from SPRINTS’ new album "Letter to Self", out now on City Slang.
