Hazel English’s wistful indie pop single “Never Going Home” will set your heart alight [Premiere]
Australian-born, Oakland, California-based musician Hazel English gives listeners a glimpse into a wistful corner of the indie pop universe with debut track “Never Going Home,” premiering today on Best Fit.
This summery-sounding tune announces English’s exciting new presence as a songwriter. Brisk drum work and a ringing guitar melody propel the song forward while English’s hazy vocals infuse it with refreshing sincerity and an aching, yearning sweetness.
Speaking about "Never Going Home", English states: "The song is about moving overseas, the feeling of being drawn to California, and really finding myself here."
Stream the song via Soundcloud. It will serve as the title track to her debut EP, slated for a summer release.
