A.S. Fanning returns with disillusioned new single ‘Romance’, announces fourth album

Berlin-based Irish songwriter A.S. Fanning has announced his fourth studio album Take Me Back To Nowhere, arriving February 6 via K&F Records. He previews the release with lead single ‘Romance’, a stark meditation on love’s darker dimensions.

Built around rising synths, steady drums, and Fanning’s unmistakable baritone, ‘Romance’ strips connection down to its barest elements: fear, need, and disillusion.

Written during a creatively turbulent period marked by a wrist injury, Take Me Back To Nowhere is a conceptually rich, sci-fi–influenced album embracing disorientation as a theme. Fanning continues to evolve his gothic-folk sound into darker, more experimental territory.
