Adam Masterson just released his brand new album, "Time Bomb," and to celebrate we asked him to tell us about the record's title track (which also just got an official video). Here is the story:

I came up with the title first. I was trying to think of a potential title for an album and kept the title in the back of my mind. I wrote the music during the first lockdown. I was staying in a music studio which had a piano so the composition came together on keys. When I came to the chorus I remembered the title I had and put the two things together. I liked the idea of time as a metaphor and the tension it can build up in our lives. I recorded the song remotely and via correspondence with musicians out of the necessity of Covid restrictions. This forced me to work in a new way, but I really enjoyed the experience as it gave the recording a unique flavour to open the album. (continue)
