Seattle-based indie-folk singer-songwriter Hayden Everett opens the year with quiet confidence on “Angela,” a mid-tempo, chill anthem that feels both breezy and disarmingly honest. Serving as the first glimpse into his forthcoming debut album, "So The Sun Can Pour," the single introduces an artist who knows how to say a lot without raising his voice.
“Angela” plays like a love letter written in the margins part satire, part sincere confession. Everett uses Los Angeles as both a muse and a mirror, capturing the attraction and exhaustion of the city in equal measure. There’s a warmth in the songwriting that keeps the critique from ever feeling bitter, allowing the track to land as thoughtful rather than cynical.
The standout here is Everett’s vocal delivery: relaxed, expressive, and effortlessly inviting. His voice glides over a beautifully tuned guitar line that anchors the song with organic charm. The melody sticks without forcing itself, making the track feel anthemic in the most understated indie-folk way. “Angela” lets its honesty do the work. If this single is any indication, "So The Sun Can Pour " will be an album shaped by reflection, tension, and genuine emotional craft. Hayden Everett is clearly an artist worth following closely.
