Irish singer Dave Lofts shares ‘I’m All Yours,’ the tender closing track of his debut EP ‘Holy,’ out via B-Unique

Dave Lofts has spent 2026 turning private wreckage into something people can sing back to him, and I’m All Yours is where he lets the volume drop and the honesty rise. Released August 5, the Irish singer-songwriter’s latest single is the closing track on his debut EP Holy, out via London’s B-Unique Records, and it works as the quiet exhale after a record full of hard confessions. Indie-folk in shape and deeply personal in substance, it is the sound of an artist who has decided vulnerability is the whole point.

Where much of Holy wrestles with faith, addiction, and mental health, “I’m All Yours” strips all of it back to something simpler and more tender. The vocals are lonesome and simmering, the production precise without ever showing off, and the writing sits right up close to the listener. Lofts brings that same intimacy to the stage, echoing the studio’s quality with a live presence that has become his calling card. As the final track, it functions less like a grand finale than a soft landing, gathering the EP’s emotional threads into one last, unguarded moment.

No Flash, No Makeup

Lofts is refreshingly plain about what he is trying to do. “For me, this EP is powerful, moving, and real, no bullshit,” he explains. “Just old-school storytelling with a guy who makes the stories personal. I bleed in my music, and I’ll keep giving the fans what they deserve: a man that isn’t afraid to be vulnerable.” That ethos runs through Holy, a six-track collection (anchored by “Holy,” “Where Is The Love,” “Drunk,” “Just A Man,” “Mary,” and “I’m All Yours”) that trades spectacle for lived experience.

That experience is unusually hard-won. A former member of the Irish Defence Forces, the Wicklow artist writes from a place of survival, shame, relapse, grief, and redemption, and audiences have responded to the lack of pretense. His signing to B-Unique, the label home of James Bay, Kodaline, and Kingfishr, places him among a lineage of Irish and British songwriters who built careers on emotional directness. The comparisons that follow him, Sam Fender and Dermot Kennedy chief among them, point to the same thing: a big, anthemic ache delivered without a mask.

A Breakout Powered by Word of Mouth

The numbers back up the momentum. Lofts has amassed nearly eight million global streams and hundreds of thousands of monthly listeners, figures built largely on live word of mouth rather than industry push. His 2025 was a genuine breakout, sharing stages with Gavin James, Wolf Alice, Picture This, Kingfishr, and Amble, plus festival sets at Electric Picnic and All Together Now. He has since sold out headline shows across Ireland and a debut UK tour.

Then there is the celebrity cosign that reads almost too good to be true. Russell Crowe caught Lofts live and urged his followers to “Dive deep with this artist. Thank me later,” a shout-out that sent streams climbing and, by Lofts’ own account, brought a wave of new Australian listeners. A viral clip of him performing “Holy” with American singer-songwriter Sierra Ferrell only widened the circle. For an artist this rooted in the unglamorous truth of his own story, the attention has arrived without forcing him to change a thing.

“I’m All Yours” closes the book on Holy without closing the story. It is the modest, moving final word of a debut that bets everything on sincerity, and on the evidence here, the bet is paying off. In a moment when so much rising pop hides behind polish and persona, Dave Lofts is winning people over by refusing to hide at all.
