Peter Landi Releases New Song “Turn Back Now”
Toronto-based American drummer and singer-songwriter Peter Landi has released a new song “Turn Back Now”.
The song is his first single of 2025, following “Somewhere” released last November.
The track is a driving, atmospheric track that blends nostalgic storytelling with compelling simplicity.
On the track, co-producer Tyler Semrick-Palmateer and Peter Landi wrestled with two key elements: the snare drum and the vocals.
Despite re-recording vocals on a high-end microphone, nothing matched the raw emotion of his original demo take, so they kept it, preserving the authenticity that makes the song shine.
The track was written and produced by Peter Landi, with production by Tyler Semrick-Palmateer.
Peter Landi said of the song, “Sometimes, as a songwriter, if you're tapped in at the right moment, you get lucky and a song comes to you fully formed. You're not exactly sure what it's about or where it came from, but over time it starts to make sense and reveal its meaning. 'Turn Back Now' is one of those songs for me.”- Photo by Liv McGrail
