Making his exceptional return, straight off the back of his biggest headline show to date at London's Gunnersbury Park, Tom Grennan has today unveiled the insatiably catchy new single, Higher. Set to follow up two number one albums, this first taster of his yet-to-be-announced fourth album sees him well on track to achieving similar accolades as its towering pop sensibilities and infectious energy deliver another certified hit. Recorded at London’s legendary Rak Studios, the song started with a piano riff. “The weird thing about me is that I make music in the studio but most of my good ideas come to me when I'm not actually in the studio,” he says. “On the day we wrote Higher I’d left the room but I just couldn’t get that riff out of my head. It turned into a melody, which turned into a phrase… I ran back into the studio, with the piano riff still playing, threw my hands up and sang: ‘It's taking me higher.’ Everyone in the room just went: ‘Boom. That’s it.’" Take a listen for yourselves below.
