New single from Pauline Maudy and Paddy McHugh: a collaboration for Valentine’s Day

Check out this new collaborative single by Pauline Maudy and Paddy McHugh - You’re the One. Out on Valentine’s Day through Troubadour Presents, You’re the One is a celebration of everyday intimacy: love not as spectacle, but as something lived.

The release is accompanied by a film clip that is a joyful ode to love in all its beautifully imperfect, real‑world glory. The video features real couples (including many well-loved Brisbane folk) sharing a candid kiss on camera. The result is a genuine, heartfelt celebration of connection in its many forms, reminding us that love is messy, fun, tender and endlessly worth celebrating.

Check out the film clip here or listen to the single on your favourite platform.
