With the release of his highly anticipated fourth studio album ‘Changes All The Time’, British singer/songwriter James Bay leans into a place of optimism and hope, producing a heartfelt collection of songs reflective of the ‘Let It Go’ singers new perspective on life.
Spotlighting James’ elevated song-craft and dynamic vocals, as well as his fret-burning guitar playing, the LP sees the two-time BRIT Award winner team up with producer Gabe Simon (Noah Kahan, Koe Wetzel, Maren Morris) and co-writers such as Brandon Flowers of The Killers, Holly Humberstone, Dan Wilson of Semisonic, Natalie Hemby of The Highwomen, and Kevin Garrett.
Made up of 11 emotionally profound pop / rock tracks, that serve to embody the “apex of Bay’s output as not only a generational songwriter, but also as a deft and dynamic guitarist with a distinct voice of his own”, the record serves as the follow up to 2022’s critically acclaimed ’Leap’, and features the singles ‘Easy Distraction’ and ‘Up All Night’ – the latter of which has this week climbed to #1 on the US Billboard Adult Alternative Chart and has amassed over 30 million global streams.
Commenting on the life-affirming record, Bay says via a press release: “‘Changes All The Time’ is my fourth album, it’s such a privilege to have made it to number four. It’s a collection of songs I wrote and recorded to help me take on the necessary but sometimes overwhelming truth that change is always coming. For me, writing songs is still such a powerful therapy and medicine for anxieties, excitements and big emotions of all kinds. I’m so excited to share this next round of mine.”
