Will Linley's debut album, Don't Cry Because It's Over, captures the full arc of first love - from its hopeful beginnings to its quiet endings. Blending introspective storytelling with polished pop production, the album moves through themes of connection, heartbreak, nostalgia, and growth. Influenced by the emotional realism of classic romantic comedies and grounded in the South African philosophy of Ubuntu, the project offers a globally minded take on modern relationships. Across 12 tracks, Linley combines heartfelt lyricism with vibrant melodies, creating a debut that's both personal and universally relatable. Available on baby pink color vinyl with printed insert.
