IAMTHELIVING Nebra Sky album streamIn this new entry in our ‘Diamonds In The Rough’ category, we would like to introduce you to upcoming artist IAMTHELIVING and his brand new album titled Nebra Sky.

IAMTHELIVING, the moniker of London-born, Vancouver-based artist Rian Peters, releases his highly anticipated debut album Nebra Sky today, unveiling a collection that pulses with passion, positivity, and the power of personal connection. Known for his soulful approach to alternative R&B, IAMTHELIVING takes listeners on a journey of light and resilience through meticulously crafted songs that reflect his life experiences and aspirations to inspire.

With Nebra Sky, IAMTHELIVING sets a vibrant tone, interweaving themes of unity, hope, and self-discovery. Rian, who has faced his own share of challenges, channels a deeply personal, uplifting vibe into his music, aiming to help others find their way through life’s darker moments. “I’m bringing a positive vibe,” Rian explains. “Even though I’ve faced some dark moments, I write songs that can lift me out of those places and ultimately help others do the same.” His intention to uplift radiates through every track on Nebra Sky, reinforcing a core belief that music can be a powerful tool for healing and empowerment.

The album, a journey in itself, begins with standout tracks like “I’ll Get It Done”, “Light Me Up,” which blends acoustic guitar with organic drum beats, evoking a sense of warmth and uplifting connections. Songs like “Trust The Journey” and “The Weekend,” featuring Braxton Cook, are grounded in bass-driven grooves and funky rhythms, adding dynamic depth to the album. IAMTHELIVING’s collaborative efforts shine through as well; his tracks “Love So Divine,” featuring Kitt and Knomadic, and “Let’s Talk About It” balance introspection with joy, exploring themes of support and playful freedom. Each song offers a slice of IAMTHELIVING’s nuanced artistry, showcasing his ability to craft music that is both resonant and refreshing.

IAMTHELIVING has been making waves in the music world, with a JUNO Award nomination for “Traditional R&B/Soul Recording of the Year” and multiple Western Canadian Music Award nominations. His recent UK/EU tour with BANNERS amplified his profile, and his upcoming performance at the EFG London Jazz Festival’s Opening Gala, Jazz Voice, promises to introduce his powerful voice to even broader audiences. Guided by his belief that “the power really lies with the people,” he aims to bring people together through music, fostering a spirit of unity and resilience.

Nebra Sky is more than an album; it’s an invitation to celebrate the beauty of life, to embrace one’s own journey, and to find strength in connection. IAMTHELIVING’s soulful, thoughtful approach promises listeners not just an album, but an experience that lingers long after the last note fades.
