‘SIEMPRE’ NAMED AMONG BEST OF THE YEAR

Ags’ fourth album ‘Siempre’, released in June 2023, has been named on several lists celebrating the best albums/songs of the year!

Country Music People‘s January issue features its Critics’ Choice Top 10 lists, of which ‘Siempre’ is featured in three. Steve Tidbury has the album in his number one spot, whilst Jack Watkins described Ags as “a New Master who sounds like an Old Master”.

Elsewhere in the issue, CMP rated the song ‘Tell Me What You were Gonna Tell Me’ among the best of 2023.

‘Siempre’ was also celebrated in rundowns from sources such as Fried Coyote and Country Lowdown, whilst Cerys Matthews played the song ‘Change My Mind’ as part of her 2023 round up on BBC 6 Music!

2023 was a successful year, and things are looking bright in 2024 too! Keep an eye on the Shows page and make sure you catch Ags at a spot near you…

FINAL SONG PREMIERE!!

The final single from the soon-to-be-released album ‘Siempre’ has been premiered by Glide Magazine!

‘Change My Mind’ is a tejano-flavoured polka, and Glide calls it: “…a tune that feels like a welcome revival of a brief period in country music that is far too overlooked, with Connolly’s country crooning fusing with the accordion and bajo quinto as naturally as chips and queso.”

‘Change My Mind’ will available to stream and download from tomorrow (26th May), while ‘Siempre’ will be released on 16th June 2023.
