About the Artist

Louis Wall is a singer and songwriter from Auckland, now based in Sydney. He grew up in a close house with his Mum and two sisters — dirtbikes, school choirs, church on Sundays, and long nights on SingStar that quietly became the place he found his voice. His Dad came and went. When he was home it was good: Louis helped him build his Chevy, rode motorbikes with him, learned to hold onto those moments because he never knew how long they'd last. The Chevy and the bikes still turn up in his songs — not as symbols, just as honest memories of something he loved that kept disappearing. For a while he wrote around the truth rather than through it, until a friend told him to stop reaching for metaphors and write what actually happened. He now writes close to a song a day. Raised on Jason Mraz, then the Eagles and Cat Stevens, then Sticky Fingers, Home Brew and Tom Misch. Across 33 releases he has drawn more than 133,000 streams and 22,000 listeners in the past year, with breakout track still be passing 80,000 plays on Spotify.
