Introducing Medium Build | Vevo DSCVR

Some singer-songwriters reel off 14 verses and never have their point come across. For the last several years, Medium Build (aka Nick Carpenter) has made a good chunk of his lyrics turn your head immediately, usually while throwing in a little philosophy for good measure. “Why do we have to be something bigger than we were yesterday?” he queries on one song from his 2019 album, ‘Wild.’ And in the new “In My Room,” his portrait of a family in emotional disarray gets more and more vivid, and therefore increasingly poignant, with each new turn of phrase. The singer, from a kid’s POV, sits on his bed and wonders “if I’ll ever get so rich that I never feel alone when I’m at home?” A Georgia youth whose Tennessee college stint and subsequent search-for-self foray in Alaska, Carpenter’s world view centers on a search for deeper and wider perspective. Dude’s always writing. He currently has four albums and a live EP in his pocket. Last year he connected with X Ambassadors’ Sam Harris and commiserated about the frustrations of being in fledgling bands as kids in the heartfelt, “Friend For Life.” Carpenter has said he’s gone through phases of “ripping off” Bruce Springsteen, Mumford & Sons, and Paul McCartney, but pushed on with his songs because he wanted to find his true voice. We think he’s there, and as you can hear on these performances of “Crying Over U” and “In My Room,” his way with sculpting a lyric is just as captivating as his way of delivering its meaning.
