EOIN DEVEREUX - "Set My Eyes On You"

Eoin Devereux is an artist born in Wexford, Ireland. He began writing songs at 16 and slowly over time began to improve at it. 'Going My Own Way' being his first release. It is a song which pretty much sums up his decision to become an artist, to go his own way. 
He then released 'Fall and save' and then 'Falling Apart'. Both songs with a more outward look rather than looking in. The events that we have seen in the past few years have really inspired some of his music, he said.

Born and raised in rural Poland, Patryk spent most of his life listening to music which served him as an escape from the forests and the lakes that he once thought were going to be his only home. At 19 years old, he moved to the UK where he decided to settle down. 
A few years later, he started learning music production which allowed him to turn melodies and lyrics he would make up in his head into demos he would publish on SoundCloud. In early 2021, he met Kevin Buster who produced his debut single.
