MUMBAI: Bonafide global Korean-American singer-songwriter Eric Nam has released his highly anticipated all-English sophomore album, 'There And Back Again', available to stream now on all digital platforms via The Orchard.

The irresistibly catchy, sleek pop record — with production contributed by frequent collaborator and GRAMMY Award-nominated hitmaker Rabitt—marks Eric's first release as a newly independent recording artist. The seven-song album features new single “Lost On Me”, as well as previously released tracks “Any Other Way” and “I Don’t Know You Anymore”. Out now, Eric also shares the official music video for “Lost On Me”, directed by Scott Lazer.

On 'There And Back Again', Eric unpacks the album’s deeply personal meaning and confronts past heartbreak, and also marks Eric's foray into music on his own terms. For him, the album’s meaning is layered. It reflects his experience of feeling like a foreigner no matter where he is, the highs and lows of relationships, and also the physical journey of Eric relocating from Atlanta to Korea for the past 10 years and returning home to become an independent artist.

Eric shares, “'There And Back Again' is my first album I’m putting out as an independent artist. It’s definitely taken a while to get to this point and to be honest, it was a very tough process, but I’m thrilled with how it turned out and hopefully my fans and listeners will feel the same. I’m looking forward to seeing how people connect with the new sounds and to see fans on the road.”

Making music was something that always made Eric feel at home. As a newly independent recording artist, Eric is taking the reins of his career and building in unexpected and innovative ways. Beyond being a singer, songwriter, entertainer, and TV personality, Eric stays busy as the Co-Founder and Creative Director of DIVE Studios, a media company he founded with his brothers in 2019 that has accumulated 1.3 million subscribers.
