Joshua Bassett’s new EP “Sad Songs in a Hotel Room” came out Friday, September 23, 2022. It consists of a title track “Sad Songs In a Hotel Roon” as well as two familiar ones “Used to It” and “Lifeline”, which he performed both during his concerts. 3 new ones called “LA” “Smoke Slow” and “All In Due Time” are also on this EP.
To make this release even more special, Joshua released a music video to go along with the title track “Sad Songs in a Hotel Room”. Watch the music video here: https://youtu.be/Z00XkjGUa68
All six songs add up to be a total of 18 minutes and this EP is labeled as explicit, specifically for the title track. What makes this release even better is not only do we get a music video, but we got visuals for “Lifeline” and “Smoke Slow” which allowed fans to visualize the lyrics how Joshua wanted them to. Here is “Smoke Slow” music video: https://youtu.be/npRZZ3dksts and watch “Lifeline” here: https://youtu.be/mWmytXXm32o
“Lifeline” is an extra special song as its about his mom and the time he was hospitalized in January 2021. Finally getting to release the song, fans of Joshua can now support him even more by streaming/buying/listening as well as watching the dedicated song along with the visual about how his mom helped him through a dark time.

Top 10 Lyrics from “Sad Songs in a Hotel Room”
10: Smoke Slow
Addicted to illusions of a love that never was
And never will be, anyway
The nicotine don’t taste the same
If I’m not with you savorin’ every breath we take
Play with fire, take me higher
9: LA
LA in a soundtrack of a show about someone who dreams of becoming a star in LA and gets let down by how fake the people in the city are and the song plays while she looks at the city at night wondering if she should just get back to her family in missouri #SadSongsInAHotelRoom

When everything is goin’ right, they’re on your side
But just as your luck runs out, they’re harder to find
8:Sad Songs in a Hotel Room
The neighbors are knockin’, they just wanna sleep
It’s 3 AM while my guitar gently weeps
I flip through these old magazines
Dream destinations, we promised we’d see, oh
7: Used to it
You’re coverin’ up all your sins, I blame it on us bein’ kids
6: All In Due Time
obsessed isnt the word. JOSHUA BASSETT U HAVE DONE IT AGAIN MY NEW FAV SONG IS SAD SONGS IN A HOTEL ROOM. pic.twitter.com/09jF7YpNKN

Well, maybe someday it’ll all fade away
And the weight of the world won’t be mine
And maybe I’ll say at the end of the day
Who I am made it all worth the while And these scars’ll be stories I tell
All in due time
5: Sad Songs in a Hotel Room
We checked in together, I never checked out
Guess it’s heartbreak hotel ’cause just look at us now
4: Lifeline
lifeline by jb will be the thing that kills me @joshuatbassett #SadSongsInAHotelRoom

So let go ’cause I won’t waste another minute
This distance, we’re driftin from difference of opinion
I can’t be mad I’m not what you planned for
3: LA
So I put on a show, slap on a smile
Don’t let ’em know you’re not doin’ all too fine
Well, I’ll be fine
2: Used to It
When I almost died, you didn’t care at all
Mama said you can’t be mad at who you wish somebody was, mhm
Well, I’m not surprised you didn’t call
1:Lifeline
Save me, now I’m facing
All my fears of the unknown
I’ve been shakin’ in my bones
@joshuatbassett ur ep is a literal songwriting masterpiece… holy shit. And the visual companions…. It all hurts. 💔💔 #SadSongsInAHotelRoom #SSIAHR
