East Coast storyteller Robert Thomas and his talented duo, the sessionmen, release their heartfelt new single, “Beside You.” A poignant reflection on the challenges of life on the road and the deep longing for home, the track melds folk, Americana, and roots influences into an intimate and deeply relatable narrative.
“Beside You” captures the ache of separation and the profound gratitude for the one you love, offering listeners a tender yet powerful reminder of what truly matters. Co-written with renowned musician Ray Legere, the song’s lyrical depth and haunting melody have made it a live favourite, evoking memories and emotions in audiences far and wide.
I wrote “Beside You” in the quiet of a hotel room, longing for home after years of life on the road. The chorus came to me in the middle of the night, fully formed: “To lie beside you, that is heaven, and there’s no place on the earth I’d rather be.” This song is a love letter to my wife and a reflection on the realization that no matter how hard we work or how far we go, the greatest prize is being with the person you love. – Robert Thomas
