Sawyer Hill began playing bars as a teenager, sneaking through the back door so he

wouldn’t be carded by bouncers. Eventually, he’d graduate to national stages, thanks in

large part to his breakthrough single “Look at the Time.” He has since racked up over

130 million streams and nearly a quarter billion video views, and left Arkansas for the

first time to bring his music across the United States and Europe. Those

gigs, including sold out stops at LA's Troubadour and NYC's Bowery Ballroom, and an

extensive tour supporting Yungblud informed the way his new LP, Everybody’s Home,

Nobody’s Happy, sounds. He was also moved by a revelation he wasn’t expecting:

Every time he left Arkansas for a California writing session or string of tour dates, he

found himself longing for home. To hone in on the sonic and lyrical identity of the album,

Hill worked with a few different collaborators throughout Los Angeles, like Mike Crossey

[The 1975, Arctic Monkeys], Chris Greatti [Poppy, Yungblud], and Ryan Linville [Olivia

Rodrigo, Dermot Kennedy]. He quickly began to triangulate the philosophy of the

record, using these peers and role models as sounding boards. It’s part of the reason

Hill sounds more assured than ever on the new album. With Everybody’s Home,

Nobody’s Happy, Sawyer Hill wants to be that guiding presence that his favorite

rockstars were for him when he was sitting in his childhood bedroom, teaching himself

chords. He wants to be a voice for the loners and the doubters, the Southern kid who

doesn’t understand why he’s meant to shut up about his feelings.
