Jack Hinks – Los Angeles
The new single ‘Los Angeles’ is an exploration of society and sustainability. During Jack’s first time in the United States, he was baffled by the sheer scale of everything around him. Jack felt somehow alienated and alone in one of the world’s largest cultural and creative epicentres. The global pandemic and halt to industry have left him wondering how the world will grieve or celebrate what we usually take for granted, but also how we will lay the foundations for a more conscious and sustainable future given the opportunity. This then gained an added depth, considering the latest wave of protests and activism against racism and systemic injustice.
With Los Angeles, Jack Hinks provides a beautifully eloquent moment of quiet reflection.
We love the whistling towards the end of the song as well as the added violin and gorgeous vocals from Fiona Liddell. Added with Jack’s vocals and guitar skills, these two artists make an excellent team.
