Stick this into your diary, October 4th. That’s the release date for the new album from Tom Meighan. It’s going to be good. Read the blurb then give ‘White Lies’ a watch and a listen. After that check out the dates.
New album ‘Roadrunner’ sees Tom returning at full throttle with album opener ‘Use It Or Lose It’, followed by lead single ‘White Lies’ which, “explores the idea of what truth is.” ‘Silver Linings’ takes the pace down, ‘We Can Do It’ is a stadium ready banger and ‘Better Life’ finds Tom at his most reflective: “Sometimes I look around / For what’s already by my side / Been aiming at the stars / When they’re reflecting in your eyes.” The second half of the album ramps up the pace again with themes of love, passion and madness. The album closes with the vulnerable, fan favourite ‘Would You Mind’, originally released as a free download but has become an anthem at Tom’s live shows and repeated requests for inclusion on the next album have been answered. “This song has a life of its own, you see it when you see grown men and women singing every word with open arms and tears in their eyes. Maybe sometimes we should all ask for a little help.”
