HaydenGoSeek announces new single “Never Forget”
Following a deeply creative period in lockdown, Cheap Fakes frontman Hayden Andrews is emerging with the new release from his exquisite solo project HaydenGoSeek on 13th May.
Never Forget has an upbeat coastal feel with the prominent sun-soaked reggae Hayden is revered for. His smooth as silk vocals glide playfully over the jovial acoustic accompaniment, with lyrics that reflect his masterful storytelling ability.
Sweetly sad and deeply moving, the most touching aspect of the song is the story that inspired it. Hayden’s good friend ‘Batchy’ was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 2021 and advised that he had only 6 months to live.
Batchy decided to host a living wake for himself. He founded a weekend to remember at a beautiful resort in Port Douglas with 43 of his best mates, including Hayden. He treated everyone to an incredible array of delicious food and unlimited alcohol for 3 glorious days.
It was an unforgettable weekend that paid a fitting tribute to his life. Each guest received a stubby cooler printed with Batchy’s mantra for living:
‘Live each day to the most, dance like no one is watching, hold your loved ones close, and never be afraid to speak your mind. Batchy loves you.’
After the weekend, Batchy asked Hayden to write a song about the weekend, and Never Forget was born. Recorded with Scotty French at Love St Studios, it’s instilled with the painful nostalgia of losing a friend yet laced with hope and encouragement to live a life of meaning.
One of the most exciting and widely loved frontmen in Australian roots music, Hayden is a genre-hopping, multi-instrumentalist with a string of highly praised releases, international tours, and festival shows under his belt.
HaydenGoSeek is an intriguing blend of sun-soaked pop and deep Americana sounds blended with the signature reggae flavors that he is renowned for.

Jonathan Zogbi reaches new heights with new release “Sky High”
Jonathan Zogbi’s latest release, “Sky High,” is a turning point in his career as a musician. It turns personal problems into a message of hope and growth. The track has a catchy beat and a modern, sleek production style, but it also has a deeper meaning and purpose.
“Sky High” draws on modern pop music and gives it a spiritual boost. The production is bright, which makes it easy to get into, but it doesn’t take away from the song’s emotional core. On the other hand, Zogbi walks a fine line between being popular and telling a good story.
The story behind this release is what makes it so cool. After getting a diagnosis that changed his life, Zogbi left his job as an engineer and turned inward, eventually turning to music. This started as a personal outlet, but it has clearly grown into something more purposeful: a place for realness, connection, and art rooted in a message. Jonathan Zogbi’s new song “Sky High” is also a statement about an artistic path defined by purpose, showing that you can rise even when things are tough.

Knux Burgandy rejects being average on new release “Mediocre”
Knux Burgandy’s new single, “Mediocre,” sounds more like a personal statement than a song. The Boston producer-artist is all in on pain rap, and the song hits hard and with purpose. It’s based on raw feelings, sharpened by what you’ve been through.
“Mediocre” is a hard-hitting trap record, but what really sets it apart is its heart. Burgandy doesn’t just rap, he also talks about how he feels, thinks, and fights against settling for less. It’s easy to chant the hook, and it stays in your head after just one listen. The message, on the other hand, lasts a lot longer, no matter what happens, don’t settle for an average life.
Knux Burgandy is becoming well-known in a way that seems real and important. His community is increasingly supporting him, and he is clearly dedicated to his work. The word “mediocre” isn’t just a word, it’s a reminder that being average was never the goal.
