bill barlow’s new one definitely creeps up on you. emotion journey is gentle, candid, and quietly brilliant – a record that doesn’t shout, just sort of leans in and lets you feel it. bill barlow’s songwriting is honest in a way that feels rare now. like he’s carefully just telling the truth.

the production’s lo-fi but purposeful, soft synths and hushed guitars giving space for lines that land hard in that 2am-heart-still-racing kind of way. there’s humour in here too, and self-awareness, like someone writing through it all to stay sane. no gimmicks. no ego. just emotion, raw and unfiltered.

standout track ‘staying put’ is a dreamy roadtrip banger, and we can’t wait to hear what’s next from bill.

you’ll find this one sits with you long after. thank u for making this bill barlow x
