Glasgow-based singer-songwriter Ant Thomaz returns with his most personal release to date in the form of “Believe,” a warm, soulful track rooted in resilience and strength. Originally from Louisiana’s Bayou region, Thomaz brings a rich blend of influences to his music, weaving together folk, soul, and zydeco with the storytelling depth of his Scottish, Irish, and Coushatta Indian heritage. With lyrics written in a mix of English, Cajun French, and Scottish Gaelic, his work feels deeply textured and emotionally grounded and the new single ”Believe” is no exception.
Inspired by his daughter Gaia, the track is a tribute to perseverance and the courage it takes to rise above doubt. The track’s message is about pushing back against limitations and learning to trust your own strength. Thomaz sings, “I am starting to believe, with every single step I take / I walk away from this heartache,” capturing the turning point when healing begins to feel possible.
With driving rhythms, soulful melodies, and Thomaz’s smooth yet emotionally raw vocals, the song builds toward a chorus that’s as uplifting as it is infectious. The result is a song that feels both deeply personal and widely relatable, delivering an empowering soundtrack for anyone navigating their way through hardship.
