Biography

Better Person is the musical project of Adam Byczkowski, a Berlin-based Polish singer and ballad composer. His enigmatic stage presence is matched by his elusiveness as a recording artist. After his 2016 EP It’s Only You captured the sound of late night intoxication and devastated croons to an empty dance floor, the singer toured relentlessly, traveling all over Europe, North America and Asia, moving and living in Montreal, Los Angeles and returning, time and time again, to Berlin. Somewhere in between these divergent cities he fell in love, and this love would become the centerpiece and inspiration for his long-awaited debut album: Something to Lose. Something to Lose is the culmination of Better Person’s desire to nurture intimacy through tender balladry. An intriguing combination of forgotten euro-pop hits with an elegant sophisti-pop palette provides a backdrop upon which his supple vocal delivery thrives. Byczkowski sings gently over his signature combination of FM synths and drum machines, this time lightly decorated with acoustic guitar strums, congas and layered vocal harmonies. These lighter touches transport the album to sunnier territory than his previous work without losing any of it’s enigma. Influenced by his time in Los Angeles, Something to Lose explores sunnier territory than Better Person’s past releases, but his songs remain unimpeachably romantic.
