Dublin trio For Nina are kicking off 2026 the right way \u2014 with a new single that’s equal parts fragile and fierce. Labour Of My Love<\/a><\/em> is their first release of the year, and honestly? It hits different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’ve been following their rise, you already know these three don’t like to repeat themselves. Previous singles Hounds<\/em> and Swallow<\/em> showed a band comfortable jumping between bouncy indie-pop and heavy, immersive shoegaze \u2014 and that restless energy hasn’t gone anywhere. But Labour Of My Love<\/em> finds them in a quieter, more deliberate headspace. Written in a garden on a summer morning, the song thrives in that space between softness and tension \u2014 weightless on the surface, simmering underneath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The band put it simply: “The song clicked so quickly once the bones were there, it felt like there were such obvious dynamics up and down in the song, both emotionally and musically, we couldn’t help but surrender to them.<\/em>“<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

That instinct \u2014 surrendering to the song’s own gravity \u2014 is exactly what makes it work. There’s real confidence here, a step forward from a band who are clearly learning to trust their instincts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
