Gryffin is back with a new single, "Hard Time Lover," returning to his indie roots with a track that's as heartfelt as it is entrancing.
"Hard Time Lover" arrives on the heels of a pair of massive collaborations, "In My Head" (with Kaskade) and "Air" (with Excision and Julia Michaels). Where those tracks pushed the outer edges of Gryffin's sound, this one pulls things back inward.
Featuring a stirring vocal performance from Chance Peña, the track is about staying when it's easier to run, told with the weary patience of someone who knows what that costs. Peña's voice carries the arrangement with a quiet ache, brushing against the beat like a breeze through open windows.
On the production side, "Hard Time Lover" showcases delicate layers and the melodic precision that highlights Gryffin's ability to create depth through subtlety. His signature guitar riffs flicker in and out, building into a slow-burning groove that draws us in through its warmth.
