Riley Rowan Shares New Single ‘Here's Hopin’

American artist and songwriter Riley Rowan has just shared his brand new single Here's Hopin, a poignant exploration of love, betrayal, and the painful persistence of hope. 

 

Written by Riley Rowan, produced by five-time Grammy Award winner Ray Kennedy, and featuring vocals by Angie Robba, Here's Hopin captures a woman's struggle to reconcile her devotion with the emotional devastation of an unfaithful relationship. It's a raw and painfully honest song about the hope that keeps you in something long after you should have left. I am really enjoying Robba's expressive vocals and how they enhance the raw vulnerability of the song, soaring effortlessly over a blend of the intimate melancholy of French chanson with the raw, understated storytelling of Americana. Apart from the vocals, I am particularly fond of the intricate mandolin and guitar plucks nicely intertwined with a subtle bass and rhythms that come together to create an overall warm, intimate listening experience.
