Today, Australian singer-songwriter and producer Hayden Calnin shares his latest EP, Soon Forever. With nature as his inspiration, he crafted the soundscape from an upright and grand piano and off-kilter synths to create immersive textures to mimic his lush surroundings. Settling into the small coastal town of Shoreham (two hours south of Melbourne) after living in the city, Calnin embraced the new world around him with daily runs and countless hours spent skimboarding on the beach.

Hayden shares, “’Soon Forever’ was about trying to capture my surroundings through music. Showcasing an environment rather than the stories they would tell. I’ve been living by the beach, so I wanted it to feel like the beach. However, not just the typical sunny day beach, but also the cold rainy day beach, the windy evening beach, the morning still of the beach. The lyrics fell in to fit the world, rather than the other way around. It was the first time I had dedicated myself to starting with the music before the lyrics, and I’m really happy I did.
