Multi-instrumentalist and San Francisco native Hayden Everett drops introspective new single “Redwoods.” Hayden also announces his debut Nettwerk EP Silver Line – coming early next year.

“I wrote Redwoods the day of a really tough breakup. The song captures the tension of knowing I had to end it, while swallowing the pain of losing my best friend in her in the process. This is certainly the most raw song I’ve ever written,” says Hayden.

He later continues “The inner dialogue that was going on in my head spilled out on the page without a second thought, and the gut wrenching melody came as quickly as the words and seemed to even capture the emotion more profoundly than lyrics could. The doubt and back and forth wondering was all consuming and Redwoods was the direct outpour and product of those thoughts and feelings.”

During January 2022, he crossed the pond and holed up in London where he drafted the framework of what would become Silver Line. In between writing, he backpacked alone through the Slovenian Alps, explored the French Alps, and trekked through the Faroe islands. For the first time, he opted to self-produce, finishing up the record in San Diego and Nashville.

“I was filling the tank, so I would have stories to tell,” he notes. “The music was inspired by what I was seeing and doing. There was a lot of creating and a lot of living.
