FINAL THIRTEEN Release New Single 'NICKY'S SONG'

Final Thirteen is a dynamic power trio hailing from Northern Ireland, known for their energetic fusion of metal, alternative rock, and indie – a sound they’ve coined as “m’indie-rock.” The band comprises lead vocalist Ax, guitarist and vocalist JD, and drummer and vocalist Doobes. Since their formation, they’ve captivated audiences across Ireland with high-energy performances, rapidly building a dedicated fanbase.

Following the success of singles ‘Why You Sacrifice Me Now’, ‘Say Please Stay’, ‘Go’, ‘Golden Hour’, ‘Wide Eyed Lullabies’ and ‘Pyromania’ which received widespread acclaim and international radio play, Final Thirteen took their electric live show across the UK and Ireland on a successful tour, playing packed venues in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Newcastle, Carlisle, London, Belfast, and Dublin. The response was overwhelming, further fuelling the band’s rising momentum.

The trio is now back in the studio, channelling the energy of their live shows into developing new material that continues to push the boundaries of their genre-defying sound.

“Just days before setting out on their first UK tour, Final Thirteen were shaken by the tragic loss of a dear friend. Nicky, a beloved member of the band’s chosen family, took his own life – leaving behind a silence that hit harder than any amplifier ever could. Returning home from Nicky’s funeral service, with grief still raw and hearts heavy, the band turned to the only thing that has ever helped them make sense of the chaos: music. Nicky’s Song is not just a tribute – it’s a cry of love, a reflection of pain, and a promise that Nicky’s spirit will live on in every chord they play.

Equal parts heartbreak and hope, Nicky’s Song is a deeply personal offering. It channels the band’s anguish, questions, and memories into a cathartic anthem for anyone who’s ever lost someone too soon. Final Thirteen lay everything bare here – because some things are too important not to be sung. This track isn’t just for Nicky. It’s for the people we’ve lost, the ones we’re still trying to hold onto, and the conversations we need to keep having.
Let it echo. Let it heal. Let it be heard.”
