Summary

Dan Egan is an Irish folk/indie singer-songwriter from County Offaly whose music blends heartfelt storytelling with energetic acoustic arrangements. Influenced by artists such as Noah Kahan and Mumford & Sons, Dan combines honest lyrics with memorable melodies to create songs that feel both intimate and uplifting. After completing a Law degree at the University of Limerick while performing across the Midlands and Mid-West, Dan committed to pursuing music full-time. He has built an audience of more than 10k followers across Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook and has performed internationally in Spain and Greece. A multi-instrumentalist, Dan incorporates guitar, banjo, and piano into his music, bringing a rich, organic sound to every performance. “Relit Cigarette” is a heartfelt folk/indie anthem about finding the strength to walk away from a toxic relationship, this song explores the journey from heartbreak to self-worth. Through honest storytelling and vivid imagery, it reflects on the emotional push and pull of loving someone who never truly valued you, before embracing the freedom that comes with choosing yourself. Blending uplifting melodies with raw, relatable lyrics, the track is a reminder that some relationships are best left in the past—because, like a relit cigarette, they never taste the same.
