Irish Singer-Songwriter & Dancer Adam O’rua Is Magnetic in ‘Rainfall’ Visual

Following on from his debut EP EVA, recently released in December, Irish singer-songwriter, producer, dancer and all-round artist Adam O’Rua now shares the poetic, intimate and utterly captivating music video for single ‘Rainfall’

The Dublin born, Brazil based creative truly embodies what it means to be a successful and sustainable artist in the current culture. Masterfully exploring and pooling his skillset across music, choreography, filmmaking and directing (to name but a few), all these talents are expertly encapsulated throughout the conception, curation and formulation of his debut project. For a DIY, independent artist, EVA is truly a feast for the senses, a testament to Adam’s artistry and an incredible body of work to behold.

A homage to both his homeland, heritage and to honour the arrival of the new season, the visual for ‘Rainfall’ is set to go live on St Patrick’s day and the weekend in which the long awaited Spring Equinox lands. Attuning to the excitement of the eagerly anticipated warmer weather and abundance of new life just waiting to burst through, Adam is harnessing this fresh beginning with the cathartic properties of rain/water and it’s capacity to cleanse the soul and the land as the purest elixir and essence of life. 

Romantic and thought-provoking, “Rainfall” taps into nostalgic melodies and captivating visuals perfect for the spring season.

“You showed me, Eva, that all tears are tears of love. They express the deepest parts of us. The rain is a gift. It washes away the pain that has built up in the cracks in our souls, allowing the light of love to shine through. It gives us life anew.”

‘Rainfall’ is a romantic, electronic RnB Ballad, infusing sounds and production concepts from the iconic 80s/90s era. Effortlessly channelling a young Justin Timberlake, Adam displays a charisma and energy that makes it difficult to take your eyes off him. Passion inducing, and undulating with layers of stunning imagery, the rare and illustrious chemistry displayed on screen creates an air thick with devotion. Leaving the listener enraptured in this sensuous, steamy and deeply emotive storyline.  

Describing one of the inspirational threads behind the track, Adam O’Rua honestly shares, “It rains a lot in Ireland and in London too, where this song was written and this story is based. I think there’s something beautiful about the rain. How everything green and verdant and beautiful in the nature that I grew up with wouldn’t be so without it. Something different about how deeply you can cry when tears of the heavens are washing away your tears as quickly as they fall. And deeper still when you can trust someone with your whole heart. What you emerge with afterwards with that person is a bond so deep and intense that it supersedes mere words.” 

‘Rainfall’ offers a glimpse into a softer and incredibly tender side to the artist allowing audiences to connect with him and his music unlike ever before. Overflowing with synergy, symbolism and exquisite cinematography, ‘Rainfall’ features contemporary style movement and sophisticated scene work, akin to the likes of the critically acclaimed TV series Normal People starring Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones. ‘Rainfall’ is situated in a similar universe, shining light on the everyday and the pure magic, all-consuming nature of romance and young love.
