James Arthur has returned with a new single, A Year Ago. 

The slow-building, acoustic guitar-led track sees Arthur re-connecting with songwriter Steve Solomon, who assisted with penning the singer's 2016 single, Say You Won't Let Go. Commenting on the emotive song, Arthur said:

"It’s a guitar song that began on piano, Steve playing a few chords, me scatting the line I miss you over and over until the song presented itself. It captures that feeling when you break up with someone and are riddled with regret and pain and fear. What If I never find someone as good as that again? Will I always be alone?

"In fact, A Year Ago is not about one specific relationship, but every scenario is real. I’ve been through my fair share of heartache and I tapped into different times in my life. You’re a year on, still wishing you could be back in a moment when the world felt right."

Arthur's most recent album is 2021's 'It'll All Make Sense In The End'.
