NEW ENERGETIC SINGLE FROM LONDON, ON-BASED FOLK ARTIST WILLEM JAMES COWAN “APARTMENT”
INDEPENDENT
The new single from London, ON-based singer/songwriter Willem James Cowan is called “Apartment”. Out officially on Friday, October 18, 2024.
The sweeping folk anthems of Willem James Cowan have been capturing ears across eastern Canada since 2018. Across three releases and various singles, he has explored the uncharted corners of his soul and his sound, sometimes alone with a guitar and sometimes backed by a collective of musicians known as The Friends of the Cove.
On the titular track of his 2022 album Mourning in the Morningtime, Cowan sings that he is “out of thoughts and out of rhymes.” This is just one example of the stark vulnerability that characterizes his musical identity, even if it couldn’t be further from the truth. The lush instrumentation of Cowan’s production is always in service of soft-spoken truths and an eye to the future.
In the case of “Apartment”, he’s moving forward.
