Following the success of his album "Bitter Sweet Love," British singer-songwriter James Arthur has released his most introspective work yet: "Pisces." Now available on all major platforms, the album builds on the raw emotion of his 2024 single "ADHD" while introducing a more experimental and ambient sound.
Drawing inspiration from his astrological sign, Pisces, Arthur explores themes of sensitivity, introspection and emotional complexity throughout the album. He describes "Pisces" as a deeply personal reflection of who he is, with each track representing a part of his identity. For Arthur, naming the album "Pisces" naturally unifies its emotional and conceptual core.
