Release Date April 29th, 2022
Philadelphia, Pa- A Day Without Love is returning to performing and touring with a new single, “Show Friends” Coming out on April 29th, Show Friends is a song about making friends at house shows and is part of a bigger project, A Stranger That You Met Before.
The album was intended to be the score of ADWL’s documentary, Safe x Sound, but then developed into a story about making community connections and rediscovering his own relationship with music. All of the songs on the record highlight ADWL’s multi genre influences and tell stories about people he has met.
Show Friends is about the many years ADWL has slept on couches, had family dinners with strangers and made his own community as a touring artist. Walker of A Day Without Love believes that connection is the root of keeping music alive, without it our experiences mean nothing.
Show Friends was recorded by Kitzy in Philadelphia ( Founder of Left of the Dial). Walker teamed up with Branden Bauer ( Drums and Guitars/Past Life) , Erin Fox ( Viola), Maya Renfro ( Violin, Sonic Eddy), and Ellen Siberian Tiger ( Cello). The track was mastered by Gary Cioni ( Hot Mulligan, Crime in Stereo, Grayscale,etc). Show Friends song serves as a preview for whats coming up next for A Day Without Love this year. The single will be available via lathecut on Ur Mom Records (Chicago) and on digital streaming services.

A Day Without Love (ADWL) is the diverse multi-genre project of Philadelphia native, Brian Walker. The project took form as a recording and live project in 2013. The concept of A Day Without Love was born from struggle and took action after experiencing 19 days of homelessness due to Hurricane Sandy. Walker decided to pursue music with the intent of rising above his own adversity and sharing a story of hope, inspiration, and support for all. Since 2013 ADWL has engaged in various projects such as fundraising, awareness campaigns, collaborations, skillsharing, hosting meet ups, leading community groups, marching and more. Walker has spread his message across 22 states and 104 towns in the New England, Mid Atlantic, Southern, Midwest and West coast area of America and has played with over 700 bands and over 400 shows. ADWL has 5 singles, 25 collaborative singles, 9 features, 3 split EPs, 2 remix EPs, 2 live EPs, 7 EPs, 1 studio recorded LP and 2 self recorded LPs within his catalog. ADWL’s catalog spans various genres from folk punk, indie, emo, blues, jazz, and edm. Walker’s work consists of varying stories about depression, addiction, racism, sociopolitical inequality and how to cope with these issues. Walker is also the host of Dreams Not Memes podcast which showcases 1,000 stories of entrepreneurs and creatives and how they achieve their goals. In the future ADWL will be releasing an album called A Stranger That You Met Before.
