SAWYER HILL

Sawyer Hill w/ Never Ending Fall @ New World Brewery Sawyer Hill began playing bars as a teenager, sneaking through the back door so he wouldn’t be carded by bouncers. Eventually, he’d graduate to national stages, thanks in large part to his breakthrough single “Look at the Time.” He has since racked up over 130 million streams and nearly a quarter billion video views, and left Arkansas for the first time to bring his music across the United States and Europe. Those gigs, including sold out stops at LA's Troubadour and NYC's Bowery Ballroom, and an extensive tour supporting Yungblud informed the way his new LP, Everybody’s Home, Nobody’s Happy, sounds. He was also moved by a revelation he wasn’t expecting: Every time he left Arkansas for a California writing session or string of tour dates, he found himself longing for home. To hone in on the sonic and lyrical identity of the album, Hill worked with a few different collaborators throughout Los Angeles, like Mike Crossey [The 1975, Arctic Monkeys], Chris Greatti [Poppy, Yungblud], and Ryan Linville [Olivia Rodrigo, Dermot Kennedy]. He quickly began to triangulate the philosophy of the record, using these peers and role models as sounding boards. It’s part of the reason Hill sounds more assured than ever on the new album. With Everybody’s Home, Nobody’s Happy, Sawyer Hill wants to be that guiding presence that his favorite rockstars were for him when he was sitting in his childhood bedroom, teaching himself chords. He wants to be a voice for the loners and the doubters, the Southern kid who doesn’t understand why he’s meant to shut up about his feelings.
