Southwest UK indie-rockers Haytor just dropped their vibrant indie-pop anthem "Be Somebody" – and honestly, it’s exactly the kind of fresh-start energy we didn’t know we needed. This feel-good track basically screams at you to dump those wrong dreams and kick self-doubt to the curb.
The soundscape? Bright yet emotive, weaving together all the right elements.
Opening with ambient electronics, the song explodes into powerful guitars that hit alongside punching drums and that grounding bass line. The whole thing swells with urgent vocals, building toward a catchy, climactic ending that’ll stick in your head for days.
Frontman Austin Robison breaks it down perfectly: "Be Somebody is a big, anthemic shout for anyone who’s tired of pretending they’ve got it all figured out." He continues, "It’s about chasing the wrong dreams, second-guessing yourself, and getting lost trying to keep up — but also about letting go, starting fresh, and making your own rules."
That’s the thing about this track – it’s basically an uplifting reminder that making your own path is totally okay. Even when you’re completely lost.
