Newbury indie band Lilypads ‘Coming Home’ chronicles singer’s emotional journey of being stranded abroad
Newbury band Lilypads release a stirring new single Coming Home – A Ballad of Hope and Resilience next week and it has a powerful personal story behind it.
Following two sold-out London headline shows, multiple features on BBC Introducing, and over 100,000 Spotify streams, Newbury’s indie band Lilypads are proving they’re a force to be reckoned with.
Formed in late 2022, the band shows no signs of slowing down with the release their fifth single, Coming Home. This marks the band's first-ever ballad and it’s a deeply personal track.
Written by singer and multi-instrumentalist Thomas Norman, who went to St Bartholomew’s School, Coming Home chronicles his emotional journey of being stranded abroad for eight months.
During that time, he awaited UK border entry clearance for his fiancée, after living together in Spain for six years. Now reunited with family and settled in the UK, the release of Coming Home couldn’t be more timely.
The song captures the raw, anthemic emotions of hope, perseverance and the joy of reunion.
Coming Home is out next Friday (September 27) and will be available on all major streaming platforms.
