As the peacefulness of late December sets in and we reflect on the year, the Australian indie folk duo Hollow Coves is here to lift our spirits with their new single, "On The Way." Released on December 22, 2023, the song is accompanied by a beautiful, grainy video that highlights the soothing harmonies and heartfelt songwriting of Ryan Henderson and Matt Carins.
The song was created in collaboration with fellow Australian artist Matt Corby and directed by Braedin Toth. In the video, we see Sigrid walking through familiar woods, experiencing them with fresh eyes. "On The Way" embodies the comforting style for which Hollow Coves is known, featuring warm acoustic guitar melodies, gentle vocals, and an uplifting chorus that resonates with anyone who enjoys a sense of adventure. Following their earlier release this month, "Milk & Honey," this new song beautifully captures what Hollow Coves excels at, crafting music for life's quieter, more meaningful moments. The lyrics carry a sense of emotional depth, yet they convey an underlying message of hope.
This message feels particularly important right now, serving as a gentle anthem for those taking their unique paths in life. It's in this heartfelt honesty that Hollow Coves truly shines. You can sense the strong bond between these two longtime friends in every harmony, as their voices blend seamlessly.
