Tom Grennan - Evering Road (Deluxe) (2021)

Posted By: Fizzpop

Date: Sept. 18, 2021

After coming to prominence with his vocals on Chase & Status' All Goes Wrong, which enjoyed heavy rotation on BBC Radio 1 and 2, Tom Grennan went on to meet high expectations with a debut album, Lighting Matches, which hit number five in the UK sales charts in 2018. This second work, Evering Road continues along the same lines, i.e. a rocky but powerful voice, enhanced by sophisticated orchestration that mixes pop and soul, with a sea of violins and piano backdrop, as It Hurts demonstrates perfectly. But it's hard not to think of… Adele. Indeed, since the successes of Amy Winehouse's Back to Black and Adele's 21, there has been a flourishing of more or less talented followers. Logically, the two singers have become absolute and inescapable benchmarks for English popular music. And Grennan is of their school. He is lucky enough to possess a rather singular voice, lending a raw sensitivity to every word and every syllable. Emotion is filtered and communicated through this voice, which lends a certain physicality to each performance. And whatever it is, Grennan has got it: most of the time, at least. On this second album, Tom Grennan's main subject is an emotional break-up. It is a classic and eternal theme that has stood the test of time, and can offer rich inspiration depending on the stature and talents of the artist. The title of the abum, Evering Road, is therefore the name of the street where Grennan and his ex-fiancée lived in mostly happier days. So it is these memories, more or less bitter, sometimes tinged with despair, that are on display throughout the album's fourteen tracks. And, despite unoriginal titles - Oh Please, Second Time, You Matter to Me, Let's Go Home Together - Tom Grennan manages to catch the ear, sometimes even rather more.
