Tia Gordon is showing the beauty in vulnerability. The Kent-born singer-songwriter is one of the most promising UK R&B up-and-comers, and the proof is in her penmanship. ‘backwards loving‘ is a tender, slow-paced admittance of her insecurity that keeps her in a difficult relationship. For fans of a diaristic, emotional soul, she is your newest go-to girl.
The young starlet kicks denial out of bed on this track. This makes for a refreshing and heartfelt song, heightened by how beautifully sung it is. The star, previously heralded by BBC Music Introducing, has a captivating softness to her voice that is perfect for laid-back listening.

This song houses a relaxed vibe written alongside industry peer Pip Millett. Pip is also known for her ultra-personal tracks, and together they have kept hopeful energy throughout the single. Maybe the emotional burnout and mental gymnastics are all worth it in the name of true love.
Excitingly, ‘backwards loving‘ tees up Tia’s sophomore EP dropping on April 8th – ‘wait! I have something to say. x‘. Her ‘with love. x‘ EP was a superb introduction to the songstress last year and put her on my radar with ‘suitcase of memories‘. If this single is any indication, fans are in for another treat. She’s a little slice of musical therapy, and most definitely one to watch.
