New York, NY (Top40 Charts / Company) From early beginnings as a triple j 'next crop' artist, Hayden Calnin has been an artist refusing to adhere to convention and genre. On his first two EPs, he explored the realms of everything from folk through to downbeat electronic, melting together powerful melodies with understated production, leading to US sync placements on the likes of Suits, Parenthood and Teen Wolf, festival slots at Falls Festival and NYE on the Hill and supports with the likes of Missy Higgins, Matt Corby, Tom Odell and The Antlers. Most recently Calnin has inked deals with internationally renowned booking agency The Agency Group for the US and UK/Europe.
Since his last EP, Calnin has found inspiration from current electronic artists such as M83 whilst delving more deeply into early childhood influences from his parents' collection such as Fleetwood Mac and Counting Crows which has led him to revisit his first loveāthe guitar. Premiering on UK's CLASH Magazine, 'White Night' is a spectacular melting of where he's been and where he's going as an artist, remaining faithful to that 'late night' vibe, while bringing forward his melodic side and pairing it with the dynamics of a full live band. Co-produced with Tim Carr (Matt Corby, The Herd, Muscles), the single now has a stunning and delicate remix from Melbourne's Thrupence.
