Blair Gilmour drops feel-good, energetic anthem "Burning Up"

“Burning Up” is a feel-good, energetic anthem that explores being so emotionally attached to someone or something, that you are willing to sacrifice your mental well-being. 

Blair Gilmour is an 18 year old multi-instrumentalist and singer/songwriter from Irvine, Scotland. Immersing himself in music at a young age, Blair quickly realised that performing helped suppress his Tourette’s tics. Diving into music on a sensory level, the young artist explores the secrets of songwriting, producing and performing, inviting listeners along for the journey. He walks a path that avoids the corporate ‘four-chord structure,’ favoring spontaneous compositions that come from deep within, inspired by both heartbreak and joyful observation. Always organic and original, Blair's vocals are instantly recognisable, marked by a distinctive tone and a subtle hint of his Scottish accent.

His latest single “Burning Up” is a feel-good, energetic anthem that was written at a songwriting camp in Spain. Initially inspired by the heat of their environment, the song eventually transformed into a love song, with Blair exploring the question: “How can you love something or someone so much that you know it is bad for you and your mental health, but you’re still in it for the chase?” 

“Burning Up” comes to life through upbeat percussion, jangly guitars, and catchy lyrics that will replay in your head all day long. This raw, honest and relatable track explores being so emotionally attached that you are willing to sacrifice your mental well-being to maintain that connection.

“Burning Up” demonstrates his versatility, emotional depth and ability to connect authentically with listeners across the globe. Blair Gilmour is set to make waves, as he establishes himself as an artist to watch this year.
