…is an acoustic ballad that captures the bittersweet reality of growing up. The melody is reminiscent of times gone by and evokes nostalgic feelings, a longing for freedom, and the urge to leave the confines of a familiar home. 

However, the initial euphoria soon gives way to the sobering realization that life beyond familiar surroundings often does not offer the hoped-for fulfillment. The song poignantly reflects on the inevitable disillusionments and growth that come with seeking new experiences. In the end, the journey leads back to one’s roots, where one realizes that true home, along with the memories and feelings associated with it, holds special value. 

‘This Old Town’ is a reflection on the inevitable lessons of life and the constant search for a place to truly call “home.” Oli Bruce beautifully captures this emotion, making you feel as though you’re coming home. The familiar silhouette of the city slowly emerges, enveloping you in a sense of safety. Indie folk at its finest with ‚This Old Town‘ by Oli Bruce – OUTNOW!
