Hayden Thorpe unveils debut solo single 'Diviner'

With Wild Beasts releasing their final album 'Last Night All My Dreams Came True' last year, the band's frontman Hayden Thorpe has now unveiled the first single from his new solo project.

The new track 'Diviner' sees the singer take on a extremely intimate and personal approach on his debut release, opting simply for a piano and vocals, it emits the more uplifting direction he has taken since moving himself out to California.

Speaking about his new cut, the frontman added, “Diviner became the first song and the divining rod for what was going to be next. There are, if we can wait for them, rare days of alignment. Diviner was written on such a day, my birthday of all days. The curtains were drawn for a while, I went inside. To say I’m delighted to see daylight would be an understatement.”
