London based, Manchester born newcomer APW releases his latest R&B cut “Learnt Behaviour”. 

Blending smooth R&B production with jazzy guitar melodies, APW’s distinctly soulful vocals take centre stage whilst his honest lyrics tell the relatable story of using passion to fill a void as he sings “Move in closer, time I put it on ya, 30 is all we need.” Building throughout, the queer talent’s impressive vocal range dances in and out of falsetto combining luscious riffs and backing vocals with stacked emotive harmonies creating a nostalgic feel. 

Talking on the track APW explains: “I wrote this about using sex as a band aid for heartbreak. Using people for my own satisfaction and then still feeling lonely.” 

Brought up on a diet of Stevie Wonder, Kate Bush and Donna Summer, APW’s clear diverse soundwaves have influenced previous releases “Love I Never Had” and “Junior Verde” gaining critical support from the likes of NOCTIS, CLOUT and EARMILK. Showcasing his creativity “Learnt Behaviour” has a zine of photos and handwritten lyrics set to be released at the beginning of July. With a stream of releases set for this year, the rising talent is on a fast-paced trajectory to becoming a significant one to watch crashing into wider consciousness.
