The simplest things are often the most difficult – and nowhere is this truer than in pop music.

‘I Tried So Hard’, the debut single from Night Works, is an exercise in beautiful simplicity. An unassuming piano figure, a single vocal line, and a reverby snare are the uncomplicated elements which, in these hands, combine to produce something utterly lovely. A melancholic, late-night-early-morning romantic confusion soundtrack of the highest order.

‘I Tried So Hard’ is out on Loose Lips on 21 April, which also happens to be Record Store Day.
