Think what you will but Korea has had the film & music industry on lock for years now. This is both in financial gain and creativity. Eric Nam has just announced his all-English sophomore album There And Back Again (The Orchard), which is due for release on January 7, 2022. Today, the Korean-American singer-songwriter shares the video for his new single “Any Other Way.” Co-produced by frequent collaborator and Grammy Award-nominated Rabitt as well as Chris Lyon.

On the inspiration behind his new single, Eric shares, “Let me go ahead and apologize for how addictive the whistling in this song is, but it just feels so good, and so right. There are moments in our lives where we feel incredible conviction and security in what we feel, believe, and love. This song is about loving who you are, wherever you are and whoever or whatever it is you love, and not wanting it ‘Any Other Way.’ To understand this sentiment and be 100% grounded in it is an incredible emotion and it’s this positivity, confidence, and love that I wanted to express in this song. “

Nam’s 47-date headline There And Back Again World Tour kicks off on January 24, 2022 in Phoenix and hits 30 other North American cities — including stops in Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, New York, and Atlanta — before embarking to Europe and the UK in spring 2022.
