Áine Cahill Twists ‘Beauty Is A Lie’ Into An Acoustic Hymn

It's a powerful performance from the Irish singer...

Áine Cahill calls it as she sees it.

A refreshingly honest voice, the Irish newcomer matches lyrical bluntness to a softly enticing delivery, one that at times startles in its beauty.

New single 'Beauty Is A Lie' is fast becoming a breakout moment, a stellar piece of songwriting that tackles social media, self-image, and more.

Áine wants to call out “all the bullshit we see day to day on social media. We all do it. People only show an edited version of themselves, the side they think is ‘the best’, but this is the world we are living in. I hate it, but I love it at the same time.”

Out now, 'Beauty Is A Lie' has electrified fans, and we're delighted to be able to share an alternative, acoustic rendition.

Stripped down to the bare bones, it's a potent performance, one driven by a real sense of purpose and extraordinary technical ability.

We're able to share it before anyone else – a chilled, surging, engaging clip, you can watch it now.
