‘Can’t See the Sky’ is the debut single from emerging Aussie folk troubadour Lewis Love.

Born and raised in Ballarat, the 19-year-old is part of the new generation of artists using social media to reach an audience, with a teaser clip of ‘Can’t See the Sky’ garnering over 1.1 million views on TikTok.

The country-esque acoustic guitar lick lays the base for Lewis’ soulful vocals, with ‘Can’t See the Sky’ reminiscent of modern day country hero Zach Bryan with a splash of old school Everlast.

A tale of heartbreak inspired by Lewis’ ex, the singer-songwriter says, “I wrote this song about my ex-girlfriend. I tried to keep it as raw as possible. Every word in this song is true. To me, the song is me pouring my heart out but keeping it fun at the same time. It means a lot to me because it’s my first single, and it’s the start of everything I’ve ever dreamt of. I’m so excited for it.”

Drawn to music at a young age, it didn’t take long for Love to realise he wanted to pursue music as a career. So the young fella sold his car and booked a one-way flight to Los Angeles to kick start his musical odyssey.

The gamble paid off, with Love signing to Hallwood Media (YG, 2Hollis, Remy Bond) and dropping his debut single, ‘Can’t See the Sky’, last week (April 11).

Having recently returned to Australia, Lewis has knuckled down and begun writing and recording his debut album, with a summer 2025 release date.
