Aimee Carty is an Irish singer-songwriter. She came to attention in 2024 with a self-penned song on TikTok “2 days into college” that went viral after it was picked up by American basketball player Jared McCain.

Independent review: “Bittersweet and yearning, the hook relies on nostalgia, filling listeners with pure thought and youthful energy”

The Central Trend review: “The slow beginning of the song complements the previous action of Carty talking to herself to try and calm down”

From the Irish Independent:
Full to the brim with clever wordplay and a unique, pulsing beat, to hear it is to feel invigorated, empathetic and sentimental all at once. Carty herself plays piano on the track, with the first video coming directly from her bedroom. Back in March, Carty featured as a finalist in Galway Bay FM’s A New Local Hero competition, following the release of her original song One Day You Will Fly Too. Since then, her popularity has soared, amassing hundreds of thousands of followers across Instagram, TikTok and Spotify.
