NEW MUSIC: TOM GRENNAN | EVERING ROAD (SPECIAL EDITION)

British singer-songwriter Tom Grennan releases a special edition of his highly anticipated follow-up album to Top 5 debut album "Lighting Matches." "Evering Road" is the most confessional work we have heard from Tom Grennan so far. Named after the road he lived on with his ex, this collection of songs centres around the tricky split with his ex-girlfriend and the lessons learned from that relationship. Six months after the release, this special edition arrived with three new tracks, alongside the Bedford-born singer-songwriter’s collaboration with Calvin Harris and a live recording of the album’s biggest single, “Little Bit of Love.” While the broken relationship continues to fade further into Grennan’s past, these additional songs continue his journey of introspection and self-discovery. Grennan’s rich blend of soul, indie-rock and pop provides the backing for new reflections on grief, anger and expectation as he continues to channel emotional turbulence into betterment. “I wanted to show people that I was going through a lot of shit,” he says, “but when you admit to your guilt, or when you don’t feel like you love yourself, the thing you need to do is really work on yourself and try to be happy.” While his lyrics may not be the most complex, Grennan makes up for this with a heart on the sleeve songwriting reminiscent of early noughties Coldplay and a voice so powerful you could hear it for miles.
