James Bay<\/a> appeared on The Late Show<\/em> to perform his recent single \u201cBad,\u201d a track that comes off the singer-songwriter\u2019s new EP Oh My Messy Mind<\/em>. The performance featured a solo Bay onstage in a dim spotlight, playing guitar and singing the evocative, moody tune. In the clip, Bay gives the song his all, offering a raw, impassioned rendition of the song.<\/p>\n

The musician released Oh My Messy Mind<\/em> as a surprise this month. Bay has been dropping new music since early this year, but didn\u2019t announce the EP ahead of its release. His first new music, a follow-up to last year\u2019s album Electric Light,<\/em> came in February with \u201cPeer Pressure,\u201d a track featuring a collaboration<\/a> with Julia Michaels. Bay said of the song, \u201cI think it can be easy to stay very guarded in life, and not let anybody in, past your personal armor. These guards we all put up every day for different reasons. In writing \u2018Peer Pressure\u2019 Julia and I wanted to talk about how, when the right person comes along, they can break through any armor and with love, get straight to you. It\u2019s about that person who, no matter how much of a guard you hold up, finds their way through to you.\u201d<\/p>\n

As well as Bad, I want to share a new EP with you called Oh My Messy Mind. It features Peer Pressure and a few new tracks. I really hope you like it x https:\/\/t.co\/iYM9N1BLGz<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/nZXADbchRa<\/a><\/p>\n
