09 April 2025
Nottingham-based singer, songwriter, and producer Joey Collins is continuously impressing fans with his powerful release, ‘Is This What We’re Living For?’—a striking alt-rock anthem that showcases his flair for emotionally resonant storytelling and boundary-pushing production.
Blending atmospheric electronic textures with the raw edge of alternative rock, the single is a bold sonic statement.
“I wanted to create something that feels intense and cinematic,” Collins explains. “Something that blends alternative rock with electronic elements to really take the listener on a journey.”
The track does just that—channeling the urgency of Bring Me The Horizon, the brooding depth of Bad Omens, and the anthemic punch of Linkin Park. The result is a visceral and thought-provoking listen, surging with introspection and emotional weight.
A product of Nottingham’s vibrant music scene, Joey Collins has been honing his craft since childhood. His sound resists easy classification, marked instead by fearless experimentation and an unwavering commitment to emotional honesty.
Already gaining significant traction, Collins has landed placements on multiple Spotify editorial playlists and received support from respected outlets including Notion, Earmilk, CLOUT, BBC Introducing, and Tom Robinson on BBC 6 Music.
With a sophomore album on the horizon and a headline show confirmed at The Bodega this August, Collins is poised for a breakout year.
‘Is This What We’re Living For?’ is out now on all major streaming platforms.
