Today, Korean-American entertainer, singer-songwriter, and actor Eric Nam released his new album, House on a Hill. Listen here. The highly anticipated album focuses on the idea of happiness, how one defines it and what truly makes a person happy. The album release includes previously released singles, “Don’t Leave Yet” and the title track from the album, “House on a Hill.” Upon release, the title track was met with critical praise and was included on ROLLING STONE’s “Songs You Need To Know” list . Listen HERE.
The album includes collaborations with UK-based artists, HONNE & Oh Wonder, and
Eric’s longtime collaborator & producer, Rabitt, musically supervising the album.
“House on a Hill is a culmination of 10 years of me being a musician, pulling from my
experiences and knowledge of creating not only music, but audio-visual content for one
of the most important projects of my entire career,” Eric shares, “In some ways, this
album is a musical existential crisis, as a lot of the songs touch on questions of what it
means to be alive, what makes us happy, what drives us, what gives us ambition &
emotion, what makes us feel things and why we exist at all. The songs on this album
are meant to touch on all these different parts of life and the things that we process
internally, all captured into an immersive listening experience.”
Alongside the album, Eric also premiered the video for “Only For A Moment.” Watch it
here. This is the second video released from the album following the video for “Don’t
Leave Yet.” Eric was involved in the screenwriting and creative direction of both music
videos. The video was produced alongside creative team 37th Degree (BTS,
NewJeans).
“The melody for “Only for a Moment” came to me on the train ride to Honne’s studio in
London. The song is serendipitous, about finding magic or a connection or an electricity
in any moment, in any second, in any situation. And how even though we may be just
passing by, there are just infinite possibilities between all of us as humans. The music
video is a very creative take on that as well. Everyone in that subway is going through
something different but everyone is wondering “what are we all doing here?” Yet we’re
all connected by the fact that we’re all there together in that moment,” says Eric.
Later this month, Eric will embark on his House on a Hill World Tour. The tour spans
over 80 shows across North America, Latin America, the UK, Europe, Australia and
New Zealand. The North American leg of the tour kicks off on September 21 in Orlando
and will stop in cities including Washington DC, New York, and Los Angeles, before
wrapping in Houston on December 3. Tickets for the North American, Latin America, UK
and Europe legs are on sale now. See below for full tour routing and for additional
