After making a memorable entrance into the music scene with his collaborations on hits like Kygo's 'To Die For' and Seeb's 'Colourblind,' St. Lundi is ready to shine as a solo artist. With over 50 million streams for his breakout track 'Nights Like These' and the playlisting of his recent single 'Ready To Be Loved' on Radio 2, St. Lundi is building positive momentum. Now, he continues to soar with his latest release, 'Fall.'
'Fall' immediately captivates with its anthemic quality, driven by indie-folk acoustic guitars, dynamic live drums, and an infectious, sing-along hook that adds a pop edge. The song holds significant personal meaning for St. Lundi, as it serves as a powerful message of support for his brother. Yet, despite its personal origins, the song's relatability extends to various situations and relationships. It resonates with anyone who vows to be there unconditionally, with lyrics like, "You know I would drive through the middle of the night if you said you were scared."
Reflecting on the inspiration behind 'Fall,' St. Lundi shares, "I wrote this song for my brother. We were always there for each other growing up, supporting each other through scraped knees on the playground and giving advice on school crushes. As we've grown older, we've grown apart, and in recent years, he's faced some hardships. I wrote this song as a way to let him know that I will always be there, no matter the obstacles we have to overcome."
Collaborating with Ollie Green (known for his work with Tom Grennan and Gavin James) and indie-pop band Tors (who released their 'Anything Can Happen' EP and toured with Sam Ryder), St. Lundi co-wrote 'Fall.' The track was produced by Matt James (Tom Gregory), resulting in a seamless blend of heartfelt songwriting and captivating production.
The theme of never forgetting one's roots is also evident in St. Lundi's current social media presence. He takes his fans on a journey through key landmarks in his hometown of Hayling Island and neighboring Portsmouth. Later this summer, St. Lundi will deliver a special homecoming performance at Portsmouth's Victorious Festival on August 27th, creating an unforgettable experience for his audience.
Although St. Lundi may be a newcomer in the industry, he has already gained extensive experience performing on major stages, sharing them with notable acts such as Kodaline, Justin Jesso, Tom Gregory, Jeremy Loops, and ClockClock. Additionally, he has showcased his talent at renowned festivals like The Great Escape and Reeperbahn. Last year, he embarked on his debut European headline tour, culminating in a captivating show at Lower Third in London.
St. Lundi continues to make a lasting impression with his empowering music, touching lyrics, and dedication to his roots. 'Fall' serves as another testament to his artistry and the heartfelt messages he conveys through his songs.
