Mick Flannery - By The Rule (2014)

Mick Flannery announces the release of his highly anticipated fourth album ‘By The Rule’, released on Universal Music Ireland on May 9th. Available to pre-order from April 25th

The album ‘By The Rule’ features some of Mick’s finest material to date and is preceded by the first single ‘Get What You Give’.

After a short tour in the US in March 2013 Mick moved to Berlin to write songs for a new album. Speaking about the new single ‘Get What You Give’ Mick says ‘I moved to Berlin last year, don’t know why.. I didn’t know anyone there, so I had a lot of time to think about my feelings and what do you know I wrote a song about them’.

Mick based himself in Belin for 7 months to write and from there he toured Germany, UK, US, Ireland and Australia. He returned to Ireland to record with producers Ryan Freeland and Christian Best in December 2013.

‘By the Rule’, an album of 13 tracks, was recorded in Beachpark Studios Rathcoole over a two week period in December. The album was mixed in Ryan’s studio Stampede Origin Studios California in January 2014.
