Col Gerrard is steadily forging his path in the music industry, gaining recognition for his unique blend of charm and depth. His newest single, “The Way I Feel,” offers a personal exploration of emotion, reinforcing his identity as an artist who crafts music with authenticity and passion.
Following the success of his previous hit, “Come On Over”-which garnered attention from major outlets like Rolling Stone, CLASH, Notion, and Earmilk-Gerrard continues to build momentum. “The Way I Feel” takes his artistry to new heights, enveloping listeners in a personal sonic experience that showcases his evolving style.
The track is filled with raw emotion, drawing listeners into Gerrard’s world through his rich vocals and stirring melodies. His ability to produce music that feels honest and deeply personal has become a hallmark of his work, making “The Way I Feel” a genuine and moving piece.
Influenced by icons like David Bowie, Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush, and Carole King, Gerrard admires artists who convey profound emotion through their sound. “David Bowie’s ability to connect with people through sound has always amazed me,” Gerrard shares. “His lyrics might not always carry a direct message, but they evoke a feeling that lingers. Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush, Carole King- they all have this incredible way of conveying emotion in a way that deeply resonates with me. There’s no other art form that moves me like music does. It speaks straight to the soul.”
This philosophy is central to Gerrard’s creative vision. Rather than focusing on flawless technique, he values sincerity, allowing his personal experiences and global journeys to shape his sound. This approach gives his music a relatable yet deeply personal quality.
“My greatest hope is that my songs connect with people on a profound level,” says Gerrard. “If the emotions I pour into my music can move someone, then I’ve achieved what I set out to do.”
“The Way I Feel” is out now, marking another significant chapter in Col Gerrard’s career. With each release, he continues to captivate audiences, leaving a lasting impression on the music world.
