Today, singer/songwriter Michael Marcagi has released his newest, gut-wrenching single, “Tear It All Apart.”

Boasting the raw lyricism he has become known for, the new offering captures the heartache that accompanies coming of age. It’s the first release from Marcagi since dropping his critically acclaimed American Romance EP, which features the global hit single “Scared to Start.” 

“’Tear It All Apart’ is a song about growing up and having your sense of home changing, while also looking the same as it was when you were a kid,” Marcagi explains. “And how the places we go back and visit can evoke such unique and specific memories.”

“I still drive to my parents’ house, laugh and leave it in the mirror,” the breakout artist croons over methodical guitar strumming and building percussion. “It still holds all my memories, but my parents haven’t lived there in 4 years.” Emotions overflow on the track’s soaring chorus: “And all I’ve done is take your love and tear it all apart.” Intimate and disarming, Marcagi’s latest slice-of-life anthem casts an emotional spell tinged with nostalgia. 

Listen to “Tear It All Apart” below.

“Tear It All Apart” arrives soon after the vinyl release of his Warner Records debut EP American Romance — click here to order. Its lead single, “Scared to Start,” has already reached #5 on the Billboard Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart, #35 on the Billboard Global 200 chart, and #54 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart to date — amassing more than 380 million global streams in the process.
