Next week will mark the official release of Pedro Barbosa’s brand new extended play (EP), entitled Journey to Reborn.
Pedro will be launching the EP on Wednesday, 9 October, at The Atterbury Theatre in Pretoria, and the first single from the EP called “25 To Life” will be released on the same day.
25 To Life is Pedro’s first single release since his previous single Crazy Love Is that earned him the number 1 spot in the Sing Your Heart Out / Love Songs category and number 2 spot in the Adult Contemporary category at the International Songwriting Competition.
The song was also nominated at the International Portuguese Music Awards in the Best Music Video category.
Inspired by a separation and written from two perspectives of a relationship, 25 To Life is about the idea of being committed to someone, but something went wrong and now you don’t know what you want anymore. The relationship collapses, but you still feel for the person although you know things won’t work out.
The single was the first song recorded for the EP in April 2019, with Mark Beling as producer, and Pedro describes the recording of the song as more experimental and adventurous when it comes to the arrangement.
