Tom Walker Releases New Song “Holy Ghost”
Scottish singer-songwriter Tom Walker released a new song “Holy Ghost” on July 19, 2024.
The song is the fifth single off of his upcoming sophomore album “I AM”, which is set to be released on September 20, 2024.
The track was written by CASTLE, Connor McDonough, Riley McDonough, Ryan Daly, Toby McDonough, and Tom Walker.
Produced by Connor McDonough, Riley McDonough, and Ryan Daly.
He first performed the song at the Eventim Apollo in London last month
Tom Walker said of the song, “It’s a bit like the kind of soul that’s in Take Me to Church, but with darkness, too. At that point, my wedding was 11 days away, and I wanted to write a love song that didn’t really feel like a love song. It could be about any person that cares for you and looks out for you. It could be about any person that cares for you and looks out for you. A guardian angel, making sure that you’re OK.”
Also he shared on social media, “If you got one of those people in your life who just loves you unconditionally you feel like you've known them 1000 years like you're supposed to be in each other's lives this is about that person.”- The new album is his first project in five years since the 2019 debut album “What a Time to Be Alive”.
Featuring a guest appearance from Zoe Wees. Produced by Cam Blackwood, Connor McDonough, LLC, Patrick Salmy, Ricardo Muñoz Repko, Ryan Daly, Stuart Price and Tom Walker.
Tom Walker said of the album, “'I Am' is a culmination of me trying to figure out who I am for the last four years. This record is a snapshot of what's been going on in my life, and what's been happening around me – what's made me happy or sad, ecstatic or miserable.”
He continued, “I will die for these songs. It's the first time in a long time I've felt like that. You've got to ignore what everyone else wants from you, and you've got to back yourself.” - source : Spotify
