Ross Harris – “Cruel”

With talent running in the family, this London-based singer and songwriter was bound to follow in their footsteps. Cousin of Liam Payne, he initially toured the world as a drummer for headline artists like Craig David, Ella Henderson and Busted. He debuted his own music with “Goosebumps” in 2019 and had his music featured in TV shows like Love Island UK, Australia and The Netherlands.

Crooning an acrid message to an ex lover, his new single combines emotive lyrics with a vibrant instrumentation. Starting with playful xylophone runs and his silken, yet zealous vocals, this buoyant groove is met with a rich, vivacious beat and multi-layered harmonies in the spirited chorus. While skillfully merging heartbreak with a bubbly melody, this jam is full of pure heartfelt vitality.
