Lewis Knaggs Reflects on Loss and Living Fully with Heartfelt New Single Forget How To Forgive

Lewis Knaggs returns with one of his most personal releases to date. Out now, Forget How To Forgive is a poignant acoustic offering that transforms grief into a powerful reminder to embrace life while we can. Written in the aftermath of personal loss, the track explores the profound perspective that follows bereavement, reflecting on the fragility of time, the complexities of forgiveness and the importance of living life on your own terms. Rather than dwelling in sorrow, Forget How To Forgive ultimately delivers a message of hope, urging listeners to stop waiting for permission and make the most of every moment they're given.

"'Forget How To Forgive' is about growing up in the shadow of loss and realising how precious our time on earth really is," Knaggs explains. "It's a reflection on grief, forgiveness and the way life changes us. Trust your own path, live fully, and make the most of the time you're given, because nobody else can tell you how to live it."

The emotional weight of the song is heightened by its stripped-back production. Recorded entirely by Knaggs in a single take using nothing more than an acoustic guitar and his voice, the recording captures the raw emotion of the moment without studio embellishment, allowing every lyric and performance to resonate with remarkable honesty.

The release follows a milestone moment in Knaggs' career after he was invited to perform on Red Bull's stage at the Monaco Grand Prix, taking his intimate songwriting from the bedroom to one of the world's most prestigious sporting events. An accompanying music video arrives alongside the single, with UK live dates and radio support set to follow in the coming months.

Blending indie rock, americana and grunge influences, Lewis Knaggs has built a reputation for pairing soaring melodies with deeply introspective songwriting. Based in London, his music balances vulnerability with quiet resilience, creating songs that feel both intensely personal and universally relatable.

With further releases already on the horizon, Forget How To Forgive marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter—one led by authenticity, emotional honesty and a songwriter unafraid to wear his heart on his sleeve.

Forget How To Forgive is available now on all major streaming platforms.
