Acclaimed singer, songwriter, guitarist Jake Bugg has released the pensive new track ‘Day By Day,’ off his forthcoming album Alamo (out November 13 on Thirty Tigers). Older, wiser and with a new-found perspective, this new set of songs are the most open and personal of his celebrated career.
Centred around Bugg’s masterful acoustic fingerpicking, ‘Day By Day’ is a reflective meditation on perseverance, uncertainty, and the struggle to navigate life’s pressures while trying to make sense of the world. Despite the challenges, the central message is one of endurance and acceptance, embracing both the good and the bad, while continuing to move forward. Listen to ‘Day By Day’ HERE.
Alamo is Bugg’s seventh studio album and his first as an independent artist after spending his career on major labels. The timing could not have lined up better at this transformative period for Bugg, both personally and professionally. On the musical side, the 11-song set finds the artist reconnecting with the roots, blues, rock and folk-driven influences of his earliest work. Alamo re-introduces an artist with more life behind him, and considerably more to share. The album’s first cut ‘Never Can Tell’ continues to gather huge support across UK & US radio, including support from 6Music, BBC Radio 2, Virgin, Radio X, AAA and more.
Alamo was produced by a multi-grammy winning duo of producers Jimmy Hogarth (Anohni, Amy Winehouse, Paolo Nutini) and Steve McKewan (Chris Stapleton, Carrie Underwood, Eminem).
Jake returns to the live circuit next month with 20 in-store dates across the UK, including a show at London’s Rough Trade East on November 16th. Fans can expect intimate performances that showcase Jake’s gritty and original style, as well as live Q&A’s and signings on a number of dates throughout the tour. For more information head HERE.
