Singer songwriter Oliver Cole has debuted the video for his new single, Courage Dries Up, ahead of his first ever solo tour of Ireland in support of his new album, Wingspan.
The video for the new song was directed by the award-winning Irish film director Nicky Larkin, who has recently directed videos for The Pale’s Matthew Devereux and Neosupervital, while his short film, Punt, was nominated for best short film by IFTA.
”Courage Dries Up is a song of hope,” says former Swampshack and Turn front man Cole. “A hope for better braver days. A song of encouragement to take those steps to push yourself towards what will make you happy.
“To not look back at missed opportunities but to look forward to new ones that will be there, ripe for picking when the morning comes.
“Courage Dries Up, although filled with reflective imagery of love and loss is ultimately a call to arms of the self. A song that encourages you to look after the future you.”
