‘London Nights’ is a nostalgic light number which twinkles with a bitter sweetness that is utterly infectious. Warm tones on guitar glimmer through Freeman’s smooth raspy vocals and punchy beat. This classic rock track swoons, glides and drifts along a desert vibe and Bon Jovi – esque atmosphere.With heartfelt lyrics and a cosy melody this vibrant track is an instant pick me up and glorious shot of passion filled adrenaline. Freeman has a knack for knocking you for six with his emotional velvety vocals and ‘London Nights’ is no different – his vocals grab your attention while the sublime melody and polished instrumentation hooks you in. Another one for the sentimental hearts, ‘London Nights’ boasts Freemans moving, relatable and comforting musicianship.

About the track Freeman says “The opening riff for London Nights flew in from the ether and for weeks after we couldn’t stop singing it. Soon after that riff had arrived, Jamie had jumped on the stand-up piano in his living room and I was throwing out a verse idea which immediately stuck. Lyrically, I wanted to capture the irony of the big city, a metropolis literally packed full of people, that can nevertheless remain one of loneliest places in the world. Meeting someone special in amongst the madness and the crowds can be tough. We’re all looking for that special connection. This song is about loneliness being replaced by joy; about a bad, mad world becoming much more forgiving upon making a special connection. A true friend. A true love. A song about overcoming fear and letting in the love.”
