I’m not sure there is a better way to start the year than with the release of one of my favorite songwriters debut album. Since first landing on my radar a couple of years ago, Australian-born, Stockholm-based artist Hazlett has continued to cement his spot atop my personal artists-to-watch list by delivering a steady stream of swoon-worthy songs.
Blurring the lines between Folk, Pop and Alternative, his impressive way with words, glittering vocals and pristine productions have left me more than impressed at every turn. With a number of his previous releases still holding strong in my personal playlists, last month he announced that he will be releasing his debut album, “Bloom Mountain,” at the top of 2023. To add more hype to the forthcoming album, Hazlett teased fans with the release of, “Tell Me What You Dream About.”
His latest offering is a shimmering, dreamy and driving jam that relies on a perfectly crafted production that leaves plenty of room for Hazlett to deliver yet another memorable and enchanting performance. With a fast-growing fanbase and nearly 1M monthly listeners already tuning in on Spotify, I can’t help but think 2023 is going to be a massive year for Hazlett - and deservingly so.
If you are a sucker for songwriters and are looking for your next obsession, make sure you give, “Bloom Mountain,” your full attention. I promise you won’t be disappointed.
