  • Justin Davies Project THE TORTURED SOULS’ New Single ‘No Tomorrows’

    Perth singer-songwriter Justin Davies returns today with powerful new single No Tomorrows, the stirring next chapter from his deeply personal project The Tortured Souls. Following the remarkable response to debut release Unforgettable Days, which has already amassed more than 200,000 streams on Spotify alone, Davies continues to carve out a unique space with his emotionally rich songwriting and timeless sonic palette.

    Driven by a hypnotic groove, warm Hammond organ swells and soaring vocal melodies, No Tomorrows expands upon the heartfelt baroque-pop and classic rock influences that first introduced listeners to Davies’ world. Produced, mixed and mastered by award-winning, two-time GRAMMY nominated producer/engineer Rob Grant (Tame Impala, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Josh Homme), the track once again features an extraordinary collective of Western Australian musicians, including drummer Malcolm Clark and bassist Jay Cortez (formerly of The Sleepy Jackson), alongside members of the West Australian Symphony Orchestra.

    Where debut single Unforgettable Days reflected on memory, longing and enduring love, No Tomorrows captures something more immediate and urgent; the fragile beauty of living entirely within the present moment before it slips away.

    “No Tomorrows was written as a slow melancholy song on the beach in northern Queensland, on a cheap 3/4 guitar that I picked up for travelling light,” explains Davies. “It’s about trying to hold onto the most important things in life before they disappear, those moments where you know something is changing, maybe ending, and not wanting to lose those who are most precious to you now, before time catches up. There’s sadness in it, but also freedom. The song has this movement and spirit that felt different from anything I’d written before, it almost drove itself.

    Like the material that introduced The Tortured Souls earlier this year, No Tomorrows emerged from an intensely personal creative awakening for Davies. After decades spent as a successful entrepreneur and philanthropist in Western Australia, the lingering grief of losing a loved one years earlier unexpectedly led him toward songwriting and artistic expression. What began with purchasing a guitar in 2023 soon became a flood of songs shaped by reflection, vulnerability and emotional honesty.

    Working closely with Rob Grant at the renowned Poons Head Studio on Australia’s west coast, Davies and his collaborators built a body of work grounded in warmth, spontaneity and genuine human connection. No Tomorrows stands as one of the project’s most dynamic moments, blending classic pop craftsmanship with soulful, late-night rock energy and deeply confessional lyricism reminiscent of iconic Australian songwriters such as Paul Kelly and Don Walker.

    Accompanying the track is a perfectly fitting lush, late night music video, with live performance of The Tortured Souls performing at Poons Head Studios in Perth, spliced amongst footage of Davies walking the streets of Melbourne. Produced, filmed and directed by Patrick Pierce and Dara Munnis from Dead As Disco (Jimmy Barnes, The Paper Kites, The Cat Empire), the video captures Davies wandering the city late at night, “It represents me trying to find my way through a difficult time of being lost and alone,” explains Davies. “The late night setting reflect the grittiness of the song. A no-nonsense visual to a no-nonsense song.”

    The release follows a breakthrough introduction for The Tortured Souls, with Unforgettable Days resonating strongly with audiences both in Australia and abroad, earning over 200,000 streams on Spotify alone, and establishing Davies as an arresting new voice in contemporary singer-songwriter music.

    With a full-length debut album on the horizon later this year, Justin Davies continues to reveal a collection defined by emotional depth, organic musicianship and timeless storytelling.

    “It still amazes me that I found these songs within me,” Davies says. “For a long time, music was something I lived and admired from afar, never something I imagined I’d be living myself. But these songs arrived when I needed them most. No Tomorrows feels alive to me, it feels like movement, release and surrender all at once.”
