South African singer-songwriter Craig Lucas is back with a powerful, no-holds-barred new EP, Tip of My Tongue. He joined us on The Ryan O’Connor Breakfast Show for a chat and an exclusive live performance of two tracks from the EP.

“I hope this EP makes people feel something—joy, rage, lust, sadness, nostalgia. I hope it makes people laugh. Maybe even cry. Mostly, I hope it reminds people that they’re not alone. None of us have it figured out. And honestly, that’s what makes it fun.”

Tip of My Tongue, set for release on 11 July, is honest, chaotic, funny, heartbreaking, and deeply human. The six-track EP sees Lucas breaking free of expectation—and finally saying everything he’s been too afraid to say out loud. Catch an exclusive live performance of “Love You For The Last Time” and “Yours” here:
