Tune of the Day: Fia Moon – Dancing with a Stranger

Sometimes a song hits differently—not because it shouts the loudest, but because it whispers the truth. Today’s Tune of the Day is Dancing with a Stranger by Fia Moon, an emotionally charged standout from her acclaimed debut EP Dear Loved.

Premiering today alongside a beautifully stripped-back video directed by Kerim Hassan, Dancing with a Stranger captures the quiet ache of longing and the blurry moments between holding on and letting go. The video, created spontaneously in just an hour, perfectly mirrors the song’s introspective atmosphere. Soft lighting, gentle camera work, and Fia’s unfiltered presence make it feel like we’ve stumbled into a memory—fragile, intimate, and utterly real.

“It’s turned out to be one of my favorite videos I’ve ever done,” Fia shared. “A reminder to myself that the most authentic things often come when you stop overthinking.”

The track and video together are a testament to that ethos—nothing is forced, everything resonates. And Dear Loved as a whole reflects this same sincerity, blending atmospheric pop with threads of R&B and soul to explore heartbreak, healing, and growth.

With support from Spotify’s biggest tastemaker playlists and critical nods from outlets like Album of the Year, Fia Moon is proving that vulnerability is power. She’s a rising voice in Irish music carving out her own lane—classically trained, emotionally fearless, and impossible to ignore.
