The hugely successful recording artist, actor and musical theatre star Peter Jöback today announces the release of his upcoming studio album, ATLAS, out on 12 April. He also releases a single of the same name today, available to stream HERE now.
Featuring 10 original songs, ATLAS is undoubtably Peter’s most important work to date. A culmination of all he has been through throughout his life and career, and what he has learnt along the way, each evocative track draws inspiration from his own life experiences, both the joyful and sorrowful. With ATLAS, Jöback is putting the past firmly behind him, embracing his full self and looking to the future. With every number showcasing his raw vocal talent and outstanding ability as a storyteller, the record marks a special new phase for Peter, and a return to singing in English over his native Swedish.
The album is also a loving nod to his first idols, and those who have paved the way for Peter to live and perform as his authentic self today, including Sir Elton John.
Penned from different corners of the globe during the pandemic with his songwriting partners, title track Atlas is an immensely personal and optimistic number about Peter’s journey towards growth and peace. The first track to be released from the album, it is available to stream and download now.
Having previously worked with massive names including Sia, Kate Pierson and Declan O’Rourke, ATLAS sees Peter continue his longstanding tradition of working with incredible singer-songwriters. Featuring a stunning duet with hitmaker Sophie Ellis Bexter, Punch Drunkis a beautiful ballad combining Peter’s powerful vocals with Sophie’s gentle voice. Recorded as the world was recovering from Covid 19 in 2022, the track makes for a heartrendingly tender yet melodious pop track. Peter also duets with producer Ed Harcourt on Modern Man, a punchy rock number with a powerful message on mental health.
Further tracks on ATLAS include electrifying pop anthem The Game, theatrical numbers Begin to End and Finger on the Trigger, and emotionally charged ballads Spellbound, Little by Little and Gravity, with rousing record Surrender closing the album.
