Coming Up For Air

by GRIP TIGHT feat. Lizzy Lizzy

/
1.
We can step together, I could take you there Are you feeling ready or coming up for air? I won't make you wait this time, I was falling as the stars aligned I'm not looking for a temporary time, you can reach me on my regular line All of you and all that can be, the words we said and the space between The whole world wants you to want me, I want you to see We can step together, I could take you there Are you feeling ready or coming up for air? You want me? You got it You need me? You got it You want me? You got it You need me? I'm on it

about

Coming Up For Air is the new single from London-born, Berlin-based producer GRIP TIGHT, featuring American guest vocalist Lizzy Lizzy (who’s layered harmonies fuse effortlessly with GRIP TIGHT’s hook laden R’n’B and atmospheric electronic sounds).



GRIP TIGHT is a contemporary artist who has already garnered support from a wide variety of radio stations and media outlets including: BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, Amazing Radio and Resonance FM. The new song pushes his modern soul production further forward whilst Lizzy Lizzy’s rich vocal harks back to the timeless hits of the classic mid nineties US R’n’B scene.

Written from two perspectives, Coming Up For Air is a conversation between two lovers, journeying from hope to uncertainty and eventual re-assurance. It’s call and response:

“We can step together, I could take you there, are you feeling ready or coming up for air?” 
“I'm not looking for a temporary time, you can reach me on my regular line”.
