Yungblud has shared a performance of comeback single ‘Hello Heaven, Hello’, recorded at the Black Lodge Studio in Leeds.
The same studio in which the epic, 9-minute classic rock-inspired track was created, the black-and-white video sees Dom stood alone with his microphone doing what he does best.
Check it out below:
Speaking on the inspiration behind the track, Dom has previously said:
“Rock music is in my DNA. It’s the first genre I was ever exposed to; I grew up in a guitar shop with my Dad and my Grandfather. Rock music helped me find an identity as a human being.
“[‘Hello Heaven, Hello’] is a journey of self-reclamation—a goodbye to the past and how you may have known or perceived me before, and a ‘hello’ to the future and where I’m going. It’s an adventure that is sonically more ambitious than ever before—a journey that is meant to be played in its entirety, never holding back or allowing its imagination to be filtered.”
Discussing the song’s run time, he’s also said:
“I’ve been discouraged from releasing a nine-minute and six second song as my first move back in a year because, in the modern world, it’s seen as a “risk.” I don’t see it that way at all—I see it as an opportunity. In my opinion, risk is an artist’s greatest tool—putting everything on the line in pursuit of the best evolution and art you can create. Without risk, there is no innovation.”
‘Hello Heaven, Hello’ arrives ahead of the return of Yungblud’s Bludfest event this summer, which will take place at Milton Keynes Bowl on June 21. Other acts on the lineup include Chase Atlantic, blackbear and Denzel Curry.
