Lyrics:
Don't go to sleep tonight with thoughts that fester in your head
Like a bottle shaken up and down will fizz until you twist the lid
The poisoned reveries which germinate and spit out seeds 
Seem better if they're brought to light, I'm here if you need

Forget about being a man it's such an ancient concept 
We buried signs of weakness and their roots spread as we slept
Well if ever you feel cheap and old within this sea of greed 
Take some time for yourself and I'll be here if you need 
Be here if you need.

Can we go and waste some time? 
Can we go and waste some time?

Under these dim and dirty lights 
Self-worth can slip right out of sight
Don't lose yourself in this fist fight 
I'll hang on your every word tonight

I'll crack under this pressure that I pile upon myself 
It's not a sign of weakness if you turn and ask for help 
You said I feel more powerless with everything I read 
Feel passive and a disconnect I'm here if you need

I hear the hardened words of people drowning refuse help
But it feels good to open up so take care of yourself
'Cause we're swept aside by cannonballers picking up their speed 
If you are feeling beaten down I'm here if you need 
I'm here if you need

Can we go and waste some time? 
Can we go and waste some time?

Under these dim and dirty lights
Self-worth can slip right out of sight 
Don't lose yourself in this fist fight
I'll hang on your every word tonight

Here If You Need

Inspired by the rawness and honesty of artists like Elliott Smith, Julien Baker, Adrianne Lenker & Sufjan Stevens, Callum Pitt imbues his indie-folk with a grand, orchestral, chamber pop sensibility plus an alt-rock edge. Despite using music often as a canvas to openly discuss depression & anxiety, as well as political unrest, Callum still manages to imprint feelings of optimism and unity - alongside genuine warmth and honesty - throughout his songs.

28-year-old Pitt has been working on his craft for over a decade, beginning as a teenager in the Newcastle pub scene and gradually refining his thoughtful, poetic songwriting voice, leading to festivals such as The Great Escape, Deer Shed & The Long Road and support slots with artists including Donovan Woods, Adia Victoria, Jordan Mackampa and Cattle & Cane. Callum’s development as a songwriter has been recognised with accolades such as ‘Alan Hull Award’ for songwriters in 2019 & the ‘Fender Player Plus’ competition in 2022. As a result of his tireless work ethic, as an independent artist, Callum has amassed over 6 million streams, with releases landing on Spotify’s coveted ‘New Music Friday’ playlists 17 times & received radio play from BBC Radio 1 and BBC 6 Music. 

Meanwhile, he’s studying a masters in Occupational Therapy, and has worked with children, young people & adults with disabilities through various outlets, including therapeutic music work, giving him a new perspective on the cathartic and unifying power of music.
