North Atlantic Ocean is the debut single from True Adventures, also known as Norwich-based singer songwriter Samuel Leonard Keith Leonard.

(Yes that is his real name, ask him nicely and he’ll tell you the story).

North Atlantic Ocean is a poignantly relatable tale of ambition and love in the cold wet face of the humdrum.

Producer and engineer David Pye (Wild Beasts – Two Dancers) perfectly harnesses the orchestral timbre of chamber-folk quartet Wooden Arms.

Leonard’s gorgeous vocal and unaffected lyrics combine with an understated arrangement to tell a story of beautiful heartbreak in a coastal town.

“Absolutely beautiful, a bit Scandinavian, a bit Sufjan, altogether stunning vocals and perfect orchestration...” - BBC Introducing

North Atlantic Ocean is available on all major digital platforms from Monday 27 April.
