Lewis Edwards, the UK rising star has just unleashed his latest banger, “If I Couldn’t”, and it’s about to take your ears on a wild ride! Released on May 3rd, this track takes listeners on a soulful rollercoaster of emotion that’ll have you hitting repeat before you know it.

“If I Couldn’t” is like a musical cocktail – shaken, not stirred – blending indie R&B with a pop twist that’ll make you hit repeat countless times. Teaming up with his musical partner-in-crime, Moneo, Lewis crafted a minimalist masterpiece that’s as catchy as it is heartfelt. Picture delicate piano, gentle guitar strums, and percussion that’ll make your heart skip a beat – it’s the perfect backdrop for Edwards’ soulful lyrics and electrifying vocals.

“I wanted this song to hit you right in the feels,” says Lewis Edwards. “It’s been a labor of love, taking two whole years to perfect!”

Reflecting on the inspiration behind the song, Edwards shares, “I was going through a testing time being a new father and not feeling like I could be there for friends and family like I used to be as I have a new family I need to care and provide for. The song is about reminding those who I can’t always be in contact with or see them as much as I used to when I didn’t have commitments, a music career i’m pursuing, that I care just as much as I always have and that ‘If I Coudn’t’ be that for you I hope you find it somehow, whether through another person, yourself or other avenues.”
