MAYAH HERLIHY is preparing to release her second single later this month.

The 14-year-old announced her arrival on the scene at the turn of the new year as her debut track On My Way climbed to the top of the UK Country Charts, racking up more than 10,000 streams in the process.

On March 26, the North Lanarkshire singer will return with Follow The Sunshine, via Main St. Records. 

Speaking of the track, the youngster said: "I actually wrote Follow the Sunshine whilst in school, at break, as an idea just shot into my head.

"I had to start writing or it would have slipped out of my head.

"It’s about taking the right path in life and achieving your goals and wishes.

"This song really means a lot to me. Especially the line 'been lost in a puzzle in my own head' as it really explains so much in only a short line.

"And when you feel like that, it is very hard to try and see the bright side of things, but that’s where following the sunshine and happiness really matters the most."

Follow the Sunshine will be released on Friday, March 26.
