"I met you in the dark, you lift me up..." Indeed, James Arthur fans are never letting go! Since his 2016 global breakout with "Say You Won't Let Go" off of his sophomore album "Back from the Edge", James Arthur continues to thrive in serving all the bittersweet feels of love. This time, he's set to release his fifth studio album "Bitter Sweet Love" on January 26.
Following his 2021 album "It'll All Make Sense in the End" and sharing his introspective tales on experiences he "never really addressed or spoken about before", he was struck with a vision, and how his next record should sound. Struck by the way his fans sing along to his hits, live on stage, the emotion of every soul spoke deeply into Arthur's heart for songwriting.
"I dug into my archives of indie, rock’n’roll and Americana music, and wanted to create an album inspired by that sound," he shared with Planet Radio. "I love feeling the palpable energy in the room when playing live, so this album was written with that in mind."
James Arthur previously gave fans a taste of what to expect through "A Year Ago", "Blindside", "Just Us", and "Homecoming". 4 singles in, he's just dropped another record, a month before Bitter Sweet Love comes out in its full glory. "Sleepwalking" is an acoustic-driven track, inspired by his realization of finding his true identity.
"Sleepwalking is the song I wrote when I first started out this record," he shared in a statement. "It felt really true to who I am and if you wanna know what I’m about, this is the song for you."
The man is one of the world's biggest artists, with over 38 million monthly listeners on Spotify. With four top-ten albums, it's clear that the world has become drawn to his strikingly relatable lyrical tales on love, longing, and growth. His global hit tracks include "Can I Be Him", "Naked", "Sun Comes Up", "Rewrite The Stars", "Lasting Lover", "Medicine", and of course, his breakout hit "Say You Won't Let Go".
"The more albums you make and the more success you have, the more the pressure tends to be upon you," he shared, reflecting on his upcoming effort. "But I genuinely felt like a kid again, just making music I loved, not worried about trying to please everyone."
