Man Of The North arrives after several months of teasing new singles, amassing over 80 million streams worldwide, as well as coast-to-coast touring including his debut at CMA Fest this month. A Pacific Northwest native who has weathered a few storms and emerged on the other side, each track on Man Of The North digs deep into St. John’s resilient roots through the lens of his raw, immediate, and vulnerable songwriting. The album’s gritty title track ‘Man Of The North’ is out now, which kickstarts with a fiddle line straight out of the 1890s before ramshackle percussion, slippery slide guitar, and his powerful voice give the song a swaggering edge. St. John also recently released ‘Devil in Disguise’, a hauntingly personal track featuring Houndmouth that introduces the outlaw country and rollicking folk stylings that course throughout Man Of The North, as well as the high energy, toe-tapping ‘Greyhound Bus Blues’, featuring GRAMMY Award-winning artist Molly Tuttle.

At the crossroads of Americana and rock, Liam St. John commands his truest form by combining piercing and painfully true lyrics while delivering a captivating and electrifying performance with a chip-on-the-shoulder attitude. Hailed as a “genre-fusing crooner [with] emphatic, striking style” (Holler), St. John has garnered millions of streams worldwide and dropped several chart-topping releases, including his 2021 breakout single ‘Dipped in Bleach’. The Spokane-born, Nashville-based artist channels that same ferocity into every aspect of Man Of The North. He pushes harder than ever before, mining his rocky childhood, unpredictable 20s, and multiple deep relationships to turn in a truly staggering artistic statement.

“For four years, I had been writing songs that in one way or another addressed the roots of me,” he continued. “Songs about my childhood, being raised by a single mother (not having a father figure). Songs that dig into my relationship with religion, and how it impacted my mental health. Songs that reveal my battles with depression and the ways I chose to cope with that, namely, alcohol and drug abuse. Songs that dig deep into my relationships – the good, the bad, and the ugly, and songs that try to paint a picture of the beautiful land I am from.”

Instilled with the core values of strength and perseverance, toughness is one of many traits that has defined St. John throughout the countless trials he has endured. He is a star for all the dreamers, a guiding light for following the things that give you life even when all the signs are neon bright and emphatically suggesting to stop, turn around, and quit. That indomitable spirit makes its way into all of St. John’s writing. Despite the intensity and passion he brings to the project, he still dashes plenty of his infectious humor and approachability into the album. Man Of The North is his rallying cry, a reminder of all that he’s endured to make it as both a person and a songwriter.
