Ready to embrace a brand new creative chapter, award-winning indie songwriter ZIGGY ALBERTS releases, ‘NEW LOVE’. The arrival of the track from Alberts comes after the performer enjoyed a successful World Tour in 2023; an experience that left him with a multitude of new inspirations and sonic curiosities, that followed him into sessions for new music.
‘New Love’ captures the charisma at the foundation of Ziggy Alberts releases.. Collaborating with fellow artist and producer GARRETT KATO on production, engineering and additional instrumentation, Alberts’ own unique style of sonic world building was bolstered by the influence and presence of extra musical flair.
Thematically, ‘New Love’ has drawn from Alberts’ personal experiences and love of creating music specifically designed for live performance. It is melodic and rhythmic, inviting the listener to become immersed in the percussion, guitar and banjo.
For fans of Alberts’ ARIA Gold certified album, LAPS AROUND THE SUN, ‘New Love’ finds familiarity, and additional depth in sound.
“I wrote ‘New Love’ in the middle of the UK leg of my 2023 REWIND World Tour. It was a song that was a reflection of where I was at, in that moment of writing. Which was different from my usual approach to writing, where I’d write about things or moments that either already happened, or what I wanted to happen. It captured how I felt and what was unfolding in my life, and instead of providing a resolution, it was nice to write about precisely how things were/are.
The upbeat nature of this song…speaks to the origins of my songwriting and busking performances and to now performing in much larger venues. Another inspiration that leads back to my roots is using environmental metaphors to explain my inner emotional world. While there are echoes of my earlier works in the writing style and arrangement, this song introduces a new melodic delivery for me, setting it apart from anything I’ve done before.” ZIGGY ALBERTS
