DrewJam takes his time with “Ultraviolet”, and honestly, that’s the best part. The song starts quiet, just acoustic guitar and his voice keeping things close, then gradually opens up with piano, drums, and eventually these huge electric guitars that make the whole buildup worth it.

He recorded most of the parts himself between home and London Road Studios, with Ross Gardner on drums bringing that punch when the song needs it. His vocals stay understated even when the music gets big, which takes restraint. The guitar playing has echoes of Mark Knopfler and Sting without being derivative. He’s clearly learned from the right people. The song deals with holding onto things when everything around you keeps moving, and he explores that idea without spelling it all out for you.

If you’re tired of tracks that give you everything in the first thirty seconds, “Ultraviolet” will feel refreshing. It’s out January 9th and gives a solid preview of his debut album dropping in 2026.
