— Jamie Campbell Bower (@Jamiebower) October 10, 2023

Although Bower’s acting credits have been adding up, making him one of the most sought after stars in the business, the performer has not allowed his musical chops to fall by the wayside, with “Heaven In Your Eyes” set to be his latest hit after 2022’s “I Am.” Following the dissolution of his punk project Counterfeit, Bower has shown his intent to carry on with his passion for music by releasing another new single that is sure to please fans.

With Bower’s various acting endeavours grabbing most of the headlines these days, the singer has also taken the time to reflect on his time with Counterfeit and his solo plans saying to Kerrang, “For me, this is a new chapter of my artistic exploration. Being sort of on my own now has allowed me to go and be more free in the creative process. I can now kind of go, ‘Well, we can do whatever we want,’ and then we’ll just make that work in a live setting. It’s taking all the things that I loved in Counterfeit – a lot of the rock elements – and blending it with things that perhaps weren’t suitable for Counterfeit. But mainly this is an opportunity for me to kind of just be more expressive.”

While Counterfeit tapped into the punk/hardcore  sonic edge, with Bower embracing the DIY tough work ethic of the scene, he has also previously expressed his admiration for American country music-a genre he explored with last year’s single, “I Am.” Speaking about the single and inspiration behind it, he divulged, “I’ve always written some country and western music. I love the structure of a country song. It’s always very fun to go into; it’s classic.”

With the snippet of “Heaven In Your Eyes,” that Bower has provided so far, the singer looks set to continue where “I Am” left off, with the country twang of the guitars at the forefront. The single will be available Friday and can be pre-saved here.

Bower had his film debut in 2007’s Tim Burton classic Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street, where audiences were introduced to the power of his vocal abilities. Shortly thereafter, Bower had roles in the Harry Potter franchise, Twilight franchise and, perhaps most notable of all, Stranger Things where he performed the chilling season four villain of Vecna.

The track, ‘After The Sun’, offers an inspiring blend of relaxed acoustic instrumentals and subtle electronica, it builds through gentle, flowing verses into bold, anthemic choruses laden with a sun-drenched atmosphere. The video features stunning scenery, filmed around Berlin, with both the video and the track representing the “man-made and natural themes.”

Speaking about the video, Churchill, said: “As we started searching the city and finding things, we noticed that there were so many wonderful examples of nature jumping into buildings, re-taking over what it originally owned. That’s really inspiring for me, that the beautiful creative side to our DNA, that we just don’t understand, finds a way to come out again and again.”

The release of the track and the video, come ahead of Churchill’s eight-day UK and European tour. Churchill will commence his, eight-day, tour off in Munchen, Germany, on the 13th of May 2019, and will conclude the tour, in London, on the 28th of May 2019. Before his finishing show, in London, Churchill will perform in cities across Europe including Dresden, Berlin, Amsterdam, Hamburg, Koln, and Paris.

Churchill’s forthcoming EP, ‘I AM’, was recorded in Berlin and produced by experienced house and hip-hop producer, Vincent Kottkamp. The track, ‘After The Sun’, is the first to taken from his upcoming EP, which is the first of four EPs he will release, all of which have been recorded in separate cities around the world. While one was recorded in Berlin, the others have been recorded in Vancouver Island, Canada; The Blue Mountains, Australia; and finally London to conclude.

Churchill has lived a relatively restless lifestyle, living on the road for the past eight-years, which has made him become not just a traveller, but an artist. “I now understand the effect that the whole process of travelling has on the way I write songs and the way I create,” he says. He goes on to explain that he travelled this time intending to experience “emotional responses to a constantly changing environment” and allow that to “seep into my creative process, which has been the most liberating part of the last year of writing.”
