In case there were any lingering doubts, Gareth has established himself as a country singer. He's no longer a 'new,' 'burgeoning,' or ' rising' country artist, but he simply is one. And his new EP proves that.

Irish country singer Gareth has finally released his EP, Steal Your Thunder. The 5-track mini-album is a heartfelt collection of songs that tackle powerful subjects. The themes of love, time, and family are present in every lyric he belts.
He had previously released "Answered Prayer," "Quiet In This House," and "Last Thing I Do." The EP introduces two new songs, however, "Time Don't Wait" and the titular "Steal Your Thunder."
When listening to his album, I hardly thought to regard him as a new singer. He comes across as if he's been a household name for years. Only 25 years old, you'd think he's a seasoned country artist who's been playing on the radio for decades.
His tune "Last Thing I Do" has received over a million plays, so the masses have been waking up to him. Although I'm more partial to "Time Don't Wait."
You can listen to Steal Your Thunder below. It's also available on streaming platforms now.
Gareth Is Ready To Introduce Himself To The World
In a statement shared with WOC, Gareth says, "Steal Your Thunder is an introduction of myself to the world."
"These songs are written and recorded with some of my best friends in both London and Nashville. It shares stories of my life, my family, and my recent move across the world," he detailed.
"I am thankful for all the support and feel incredibly lucky to do this as a career. I hope you can connect with these songs and learn a little bit more about me as a person."
He's seen a rise in attention last year, but 2025 has been quite the whirlwind year for him. The increase of national exposure in the U.S. and the U.K. has set him up for a promising year. I can't wait to watch the singer get the attention he deserves.
