Will Hyde Shares Powerful Rework of "Higher Love"

Indie-pop newcomer Will Hyde returns today with the release of “Higher Love,” a stunning rework of the 1986 Steve Winwood hit.

Gearing up for the release of a new project this year, “Higher Love” is a taste of what’s to come from the rising singer, songwriter, and producer whose impressive debut solo 2020 EP with u in mind. clocked millions of streams and received critical praise from the likes of NME, Wonderland Magazine, Triple J Unearthed, and Atwood Magazine.

On the release of his cover of “Higher Love,” Will Hyde shares, “I made my rendition of ‘Higher Love’ in the midst of a lot of political change happening in the world. It felt like a time when we were more divided than ever.. sometimes I feel the news can further widen that gap between people too. I remember waking up and the song was in my head for the whole morning. I don’t usually make covers, I just felt like I could put an interesting spin on the song and make it my own. I always wanted to have guitar in it so that it could separate itself from the original work. I love the original song and think Steve is amazing, I just wanted to have my unique touch on it as an artist. I hope it can transport you to another world for a minute with everything happening on our planet!”

Hyde continues, “I hope we can start to realize that we are all the same and want the same things - to be loved, to be appreciated and recognized. The only answer is to search within ourselves to try and find peace on an individual level, before we can love each other. The only answer is love!”

Listen to with u in mind.
