Naas based singer Sina Theil's new Christmas singles were released on iTunes, Amazon, Google Play and all major download services last night and scored the Kildare based artist & independent label Downda Road Productions their eighth #1 single in the Download Charts.
"Share your Love this Christmas" is an original composition by Sina Theil and her manager Mike Gleeson, that mixes a pensive singer-songwriter/americana vibe with a catchy pop infused chorus and charted at #1 in the Irish Country Download Charts.
Sina, 28, is originally from Germany but has lived in Naas for several months, and she is signed to Downda Road Productions since 2017.
Speaking to KildareNow, Sina explained: "Share your Love this Christmas" is an original song written by myself and my manager Mike Gleeson that is meant to encourage people to be there for each other, inspired by a very personal story, Mike's loss of his eldest son to a long-term illness. While many look forward to Christmas, there are also many (that are sometimes forgotten about) that find this time of year especially hard, as they're missing a loved one that is no longer with them, or fear they might not get to celebrate another Christmas together. "
Her second single, a version of the all-time favourite "Rockin' Robin" also charted in the Irish Country Download top #10.
Regarding "Share your Love this Christmas", Downda Road advised that while it is a song with an uplifting sound and positive message to "share your love" this season, it is based on a very personal story: Mike’s loss of his eldest son through a long-term illness.
The lyrics reflect the bravery of his wife who relentlessly fought for their child and the fear they experienced every Christmas, wondering would it be their last, and call to raise awareness for those who have lost, or fear the loss, of a loved one and might be wearing a brave smile but are struggling more than usual at Christmas time.
“This song means so much to us personally; we really hope that it evokes a feeling of empathy and love in people’s hearts and reminds them to be there for each other” Downda Road Productions.
"Rockin' Robin" on the other hand, is an upbeat all-time favourite written by Leon René, that is very easy listening and perfect for setting a cheerful Christmas mood.
Both songs were recorded at the Golden Egg Studios, Portlaoise and produced by Brian O'Mahoney and also feature Matt Wilson on bass.
Sina Theil's music has to date stacked up close to 4 Million Radio Impressions and over 1,500 radio plays as registered by Radiomonitor, and the former BIMM student encourages radio listeners to request her new songs at their local radio stations.
The video for "Rockin' Robin" will be released later tonight.
