Richard Tyler Epperson – When I Build My World (The Open Book Sessions)

Richard Tyler Epperson’s new single, “When I Build My World,” is a thoughtful and deeply human song that reflects on love, commitment, and the shared journey of building a life with someone. Originally introduced on his Another Day project and now revisited through The Open Book Sessions, the track carries a renewed sense of intimacy that brings its message into even sharper focus.

Epperson’s songwriting stands out because it feels honest rather than idealized, capturing both the hopes and uncertainties that come with planning a future alongside another person. His vocal performance is warm and sincere, allowing the emotions behind every line to land naturally without ever feeling forced. I particularly enjoyed how the song balances personal reflection with a message that listeners can easily connect to in their own lives.

I find that the strongest songs are often the ones that speak plainly from the heart, and “When I Build My World” does exactly that. It is a graceful, heartfelt release that showcases Epperson’s strengths as both a songwriter and storyteller.
