The song is featured on an extended edition of Barber’s new EP
Multi-platinum singer-songwriter Sam Barber has joined forces with Grammy Award-nominated artist and producer Chance Peña for the new single, “Better Than The Floor,” premiering everywhere via Lockeland Springs/Atlantic Records. Having both long admired each other’s work, the acclaimed artists finally connected, forging a powerful new collaboration.
“Better Than The Floor” is included on an extended edition of Barber’s acclaimed new EP, Music for the Soul, available now. The project begins an unforgettable new chapter for Barber following the breakout success of his RIAA gold-certified 2024 debut album, Restless Mind. Co-written by Barber and produced by Grammy Award-winner Ryan Hewitt (The Lumineers, Noah Kahan) and Joe Becker at studios in Nashville, and Bozeman, MT, the EP sees Barber chronicling how he got here and where he’s headed next on such eloquent, empathetic new songs as “Same Sad Shit,” the fame-wrestling title track, “Music for the Soul,” and the deeply moving “Home Tonight,” all available now alongside official live performance videos. The song was first teased via the fan-first platform, Sam Barber Files, an evolving digital space offering a rare, unfiltered look into Barber’s world with unreleased content, personal visuals, and behind-the-scenes glimpses into his creative process.
Music for the Soul also includes the soul-baring anthem, “Man of the Year,” available everywhere now alongside an official live performance video.
Barber is celebrating the project on his biggest North American headlining tour through December and beyond.
