We had the pleasure of writing about Glenn Valles last year: his figure embodies pure songwriting spirit. Not singing his songs, the Mumbai-based talent focuses on crafting lyrics and melodies, managing to be effective in almost every style. His mission is a love letter to songwriting, a full-on effort to deliver the best possible value for the final artist. After a few months, Glenn Valles makes himself known again, winning the 2022 UK Songwriting Contest in the Country Music Category with poignant gem ‘Looking Up To Heaven’.
The song was written after the sudden passing of his mother, Clothilda, and functions as an emotional tribute to her and Glenn’s dad, Edmund. It really is a beautiful record. Built upon piano and vocals, the track keeps it simple, showcasing the heart-wrenching and soul-stirring songwriting the Mumbai resident has to offer. A remarkable offering, which we are confident will connect with many listeners out there.
Valles’ music is a reminder of the beauty of family, the power of grief, and the strength of love in the face of loss. It is a celebration of Clothilda and Edmund Valles’ legacy and a reminder of the power of music to comfort, heal, and inspire.
