Embarking on a journey straight from the soul, Richard Walters’ latest single ‘The Light’ is honest and explores how loss truly can affect a person.

Richard Walters has previously featured on a number of Spotify playlists, including the world famous ‘The Most Beautiful Songs in the World’. If ‘The Light’ doesn’t find it’s way onto it, we riot.

On the release, Richard says, “It’s ultimately a song about fear of loss; about someone or something moving on and passing, using that idea of ‘don’t go towards the light!’ to talk about the end of a personal situation or relationship. I suppose with the events of this year, we’ve all had to let things go!

I worked again with producer Edd Holloway on this track and we wanted it to feel quietly anthemic, still intimate but with some weighty pushes and pulls.

‘The Light’ has room to breathe and includes a stunning, cinematic production. Armed with insecurities and vulnerability, the latest release from Richard Walters is coated with indie pop elements. Walking hand in hand with a heroic arrangement, sadly, this track feels relatable for many out there.

Richard Walters’ ‘The Light is a comfort within the world’s current darkness.
