The project unfolds across two distinct halves, tracing the aftermath of a breakup before gradually shifting towards acceptance and renewal. Previous singles including DARLING, WHAT’S A GUY GOTTA DO, and DON’T GET MAD each reveal different stages of that process, showcasing Troy’s honest songwriting and growing artistic confidence.
Troy’s rise has been driven by a fiercely independent approach. His breakout single Go Away, written and produced in his university bedroom, has surpassed 20 million streams, helping build a catalogue that now exceeds 45 million streams worldwide.
Alongside praise from BBC Introducing, BBC Radio 1 Future Artists and Apple Music 1, NO HEALING WITHOUT HEARTBREAK marks a significant step forward for one of the UK’s most exciting emerging artists, a project that embraces vulnerability while looking firmly towards brighter days ahead.
