California’s own boundary pushing pop outfit The Hogstad Brothers are back with their latest single ‘Take Me Higher’. Since making their debut in 2018, the band have grown from strength to strength, receiving backing from the likes of Earmilk. Making bold steps forward, the group look forward to continuing their busy 2025 as they cement themselves as exciting underground talents.
Bringing an effortless nostalgia to the airwaves, ‘Take Me Higher’ comes laden with eighties-esque melodies inside a wild contemporary prowess. Coupling together vibrant synths with a floor-filling sonic foundation, the single builds the pair’s rich artistry with an alluring, intoxicating production style. Penned about self-reflection, introspective lyrics add an additional layer of authenticity to the track, demonstrating a masterful, marvelling example of modern alt-pop songwriting.
Diving into the new anthem, the band dive in, “Take Me Higher is about looking in the mirror to ask oneself hard questions, then going all the way down the rabbit hole to get the answers.”
