James Morrison Announces New Album “Fight Another Day”, Premieres Title Track on BBC Radio 2
British singer-songwriter James Morrison has announced his upcoming sixth studio album “Fight Another Day” will be released on October 3, 2025.
This marks his first album in six years since the 2019 album “You're Stronger Than You Know”.
Also, it is the first release under his new label Cooking Vinyl.
From the album, he premiered the title track “Fight Another Day” on BBC Radio 2 The Scott Mills Breakfast Show.
The song reflects on themes of resilience, hope and perseverance.
It was written by James Morrison, Kjetil Mørland, and Paul Meehan. Produced by Mark Taylor.
James Morrison said of the song, “It just sums up what the record is. It's about reminding yourself what's good. About convincing yourself you've got enough strength to keep the fight going.”- The new album comprises 13 tracks, on which he worked with producers Eg White, Daniel Merriweather, Connor Reeves and Andy Platt.
It is the album born of difficult times and heavy emotions but one that, ultimately, leans into the light and joy and hope.
James Morrison said of the album, “When I leaned into how I was feeling, that's when the songs started coming. I started writing about what I was going through. My own struggles with myself. Every day being a bit of a battle. Trying to eke the light out after what felt like darkness for ages. I'm really proud of the album in terms of the creative, sonic elements and how I dealt with truthful stuff. But also it's an album of songs that hopefully make you feel better and make you nod your head and stamp your feet and singalong.” -
