Sheldon Riley I “AGAIN”

Returning with another deeply emotional, touching track, Sheldon Riley has just uncovered his latest single “AGAIN.” Influenced by the cinematic style of SIA and the dark modernism of FKA Twigs, this track sits well within the newly established, continued style Riley handed us in his previous single “Left Broken.” 

Speaking on the track Sheldon said, “Again is about recognising self sabotage. I’m an artist who writes music about resolving pain, finding strength and confessing heart-ache. I wrote this song at a time where everything was going so great. I was working on myself, putting hurt behind me and found myself on a supported path where for the first time in a long time I felt a sense of control.

It was at that moment that I realised I’m actually very uncomfortable living in my own happiness, almost like I felt guilt in feeling so happy. I recognised that as someone who has quite the history of being let down, I had created my own comfort in expecting things won’t go right and to never trust the possibility that happiness could be sustained."

​A powerful introspective piece, the track looks deep into his own self sabotage and torment, and consequently his inability to sustain happiness. Turning his own experience and introspective thoughts into hypnotic, brooding songs seems to be Sheldon’s strong suit. We can't wait to see where Sheldon Riley takes us next.
