Forrest Hill Announces New Single”Can’t Wait For A Savior” From Forthcoming Album “Beyond The Veil”

Published

on

 indie artist Forrest Hill is set to release his powerful new single “Can’t Wait for a Savior” on April 11, 2025, the first offering from his highly anticipated sixth album “Beyond The Veil” slated for summer 2025.

Drawing inspiration from Barack Obama’s prescient 2018 warning, “You cannot sit back and wait for a savior,” Hill crafts a timely commentary on contemporary social division and environmental concerns. The track marries thoughtful social critique with an infectious 80s retro pop-rock sound that echoes influences like Jeff Lynne and Midnight Oil.

“For me this song is a reminder that just complaining about what is going on in our country does nothing other than to make me feel bad,” explains Hill. “I can’t change the big things, but I can get involved to try and make a difference on a small scale. Not only is it healthier but that is how real change occurs. All we need is for more of us to show up.”

The single marks Hill’s third collaboration with acclaimed producer and multi-instrumentalist J. Christopher Thomas, whose expertise has been instrumental in refining Hill’s distinctive sound across multiple projects.

“Can’t Wait for a Savior” will be available on all major streaming platforms and Bandcamp beginning April 11. The track continues Hill’s tradition of socially conscious songwriting that has characterized his work since his solo debut in 2017.

“Beyond The Veil,” Hill’s sixth solo album, promises to further explore themes of social awareness, personal responsibility, and hope in challenging times when it releases this summer.
