This is the band’s first release since debut album Sunrooms was launched to critical acclaim in May 2022, and there’s a lot more to come:
“We’ve spent the past three years working on a new record and it’s really exciting to finally share the first single”, explains lead singer and songwriter Cess. “When writing the lyrics, I tried to capture the whirlwind feeling of falling deeply in love with someone and realising they’re about to turn your whole world upside-down. It’s a song of dizzying heights and tender surrender.”
“We live at the bottom of a hill”, adds co-writer and producer Graham, “and everyday, we walk up that hill to watch the view and hatch some plans. A lot of the ideas that came to shape our new album were formulated there, on the hilltop. And it’s also a symbol of perseverance. Life can sometimes feel like an endless climb, with much to do and little time, but there are always moments to take in the view, and this song is a reminder to ourselves to enjoy the journey.”
Earlier this year, Greenness sent a live acoustic version of Hilltop to the Croissant Neuf stage and were subsequently offered to perform three sets at Glastonbury Festival this year. This was their first appearance at the iconic festival. Further live shows and festival dates can be found on the band’s official website.
