Saskatchewan songwriter Nick Faye returns with his highly anticipated new album, (Good) Love, out now alongside the lead single, “Means That Much.”
A heartfelt exploration of love, loss, and emotional reflection, the record chronicles Faye’s journey through relationships, personal growth, and discovering what it truly means to give and receive love.
Recorded across multiple cities with producer Chris Dimas and featuring performances by Nick Faye (vocals, guitar), Byron Chambers (bass), Jon Neher (keys), Landon Leibel (drums), and Jesse Bryksa (guitar), (Good) Love is a blend of pop-rock and indie sensibilities anchored in warm melodies and thoughtful storytelling. The album navigates the highs and lows of love in Faye’s early-to-mid-thirties, reflecting on healthy relationships, online dating, heartbreak, and the patience required to find real connection.
The lead single, “Means That Much” (co-written with Andy Cole of Great Wealth), was born on a summer day in Toronto with the CN Tower in view. Faye explains, “Andy brought the song idea, the tone, and some beautiful melodies to the writing session, and we brought it to life together. The song evolved from a hardline breakup story into a reflection on whether a relationship is worth fighting for – a classic 90’s Dad Rock anthem with emotional depth.”

“Means That Much” captures the bittersweet tension of separation and reconciliation. “There’s a story arc of giving, leaving, grieving, receiving, and discovering good love on this album,” Faye elaborates. “It was cool that a song Andy and I wrote outside of the record’s scope wound up fitting so seamlessly.”
(Good) Love was mostly recorded in Regina with several parts tracked remotely due to the dispersed band members. Despite logistical challenges, the result is an album that feels cohesive, intimate, and deeply lived-in – an honest snapshot of love and reflection in the modern age.
“Grieving lost love isn’t linear. Emotions and timelines for processing and grieving the end of good relationships ebb and flow which can make putting yourself out there to find new love difficult and exhausting,” Faye notes. “If you put in the work to understand yourself, process the emotions you’re feeling, and are honest with yourself, you will find good love if you are patient.”
