Setting the tone with a dimensional bassline, a breath, some light crowd noise and textured percussion, Izzi Stone opens Hey Hey with a crisp vocal, and inspiring prose.
The message of the song is conscious, and we love the metaphors that Izzi Stone conveys with her poetic prowess. The star invites us to sing our songs in the darkest night, and “become the light“.
Speaking on her art, Izzi simply says, “My style is edgy, strong and bold. My self guided path has kept my art open, honest and different. My songs are to inspire strength and direction. Sharing my heart with the world is the best reward for my soul.”
We adore the key change and middle eight, which gives a transcnendal motif to the composition, truly sending us astral in line with the uplifting concept of the song.
The outro breakdown of the song includes spoken word and cerebral vocal design, as the conscious star keeps up the momentum with her empowering message. The instrumentation is refined, and we can only imagine how iconic this would be to experience live.
