For his third album Louis pushed himself as a lyricist, songwriter, and performer, holding nothing back on these tracks. Though he certainly doesn’t have to prove himself, it’s clear that he still writes music, plays shows, and sings as if everything is on the line. In the studio, restless creativity and a hunger for artistic exploration drive his process. Live, he leaves everything on the stage as sold-out crowds meet him head-on with the same amount of enthusiasm and energy. As a writer, he’s diving deeper into who he is than ever before.
First single ‘Lemonade’ was playlisted by Radio 1, Radio 2 and Capital in the UK, and Louis performed the track on Radio 1’s Live Lounge alongside a cover of Hozier’s ‘Too Sweet’. Second release ‘Palaces’ received critical acclaim from Clash Magazine calling it “A terrific, finessed piece of melodic indie, with a real sense of theatre and drama to the vocal.” Louis performed the track in an ‘Amazon Music Presents’ session and headlined Capital’s Jingle Bell Ball at The O2 in London.
The slick and soulful single ‘Imposter’ followed which was both a ‘Hottest Record’ and an A List track for Radio 1, with Louis performing the song on ‘The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon’ in the USA. New single ‘Sunflowers’ sees Louis’s breathy vocals practically hover across the track, whilst vibrant guitars echo. He delivers a plea on the ethereal chorus, “Won’t you take me where all the sunflowers are hiding?”.
