James Morrison releases truthful album ‘Fight Another Day’

Chart-topping, multiple-platinum, BRIT Award winner James Morrison releases his sixth album ‘Fight Another day’.

‘Fight Another Day’ is an album that presents all of the heightened emotions and struggles that James Morrison has experienced and then captured in his songwriting: the dirt, the heart, the honesty and the soul. It is an album born of difficult times and heavy emotions but one that, ultimately, leans into the light, joy and hope. “When I leaned into how I was feeling, that’s when the songs started coming. I started writing about what I was going through. My own struggles with myself. Every day being a bit of a battle. Trying to eke the light out after what felt like darkness for ages. I’m really proud of the album in terms of the creative, sonic elements and how I dealt with truthful stuff. But also, it’s an album of songs that hopefully make you feel better and make you nod your head and stamp your feet and singalong” says James. In a sense, the album is a record that has been a lifetime in the making. From reflecting on his early days in his career when he battled to win an opportunity to prove himself through the self-reflection that comes with therapy.

Entirely co-produced by James, it possesses his signature sonic traits, that gravelly blues/soul vocal, his flair for a dramatic power balled, his groove-heavy old school R&B leanings. But it also evokes influences both old and new, from Stevie Wonder and George Harrison to Imagine Dragons and AWOLNATION. His collaborators on the record include the two-time Ivor Novello winner Eg White and Daniel Marriweather, Connor Reeves and Andy Platt (Young Gun Silver Fox).
