The hard hitting blues rock release follows a whirlwind 18 months since the release of 'The Divine and Dirty' in March 2018, where he sold 75 tickets for the London album launch at Thousand Island, and only 11 months later returned to play a sold-out show to 500 people at the main room of the Garage, London with an incredible ride to get there. This journey saw the band go on tour in the UK with Beth Hart, Joanne Shaw Taylor, not to mention shows with GUN, King King, The Magpie Salute, Therapy?, John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers and a full European tour with Jonny Lang and Walter Trout. He even found time to join Supersonic Blues Machine as the new singer-guitarist with the legendary Billy F Gibbons, joining for their debut European tour, playing Shepherd's Bush Empire, London and a host of sold out shows and festivals across the continent. Faraway from when Barras played the grassroots circuit with a mixture of originals in amongst covers to 20-30 people - from covering ZZ Top in pubs to playing with Billy F Gibbons in the same band, in 2 years.
'Light It Up' sees him at his most expressive yet, forcing himself out of his comfort zone. "I kinda forced myself to write songs a different way. The biggest difference for this album was that I didn't pigeonhole myself in any way, I didn't feel like I had to conform. I just sat down and wrote songs I wanted to write, with a sound I wanted to produce, not thinking about genre whatsoever."
