Ben Hemming returns with The Meaning of All Things, a ten-track, black-and-white-toned plunge into late-night streets, frayed relationships, and hard-won hope. Lean, melodic, and flint-edged, the record threads Hemming’s gravel-warm vocal with Telecaster bite, slide-guitar grit, and brooding rhythms that nod to modern blues-rock while staying resolutely his own. The album features the standout single “Devil May Care” alongside “Thorns,” “London Fog,” “Old Bones,” “Truth Lies,” and more, and will be released 5th September.
 
“These songs came out of long nights and hard truths,” says Hemming. “The title points to that search we all do late at night—rain on concrete, neon on wet pavement—where the stories you tell yourself either hold up or fall apart.”
 
Crafted in London with a minimalist, lived-in aesthetic, The Meaning of All Things captures Hemming’s signature cinematic mood: monochrome textures, roomy drums, and guitar lines that cut like sodium light through smoke. Lyrically, the album balances intimacy and myth—boxing with faith, fate, pride, and the quiet cost of keeping going.
