Huron John is one of the most important artists out right now and I pray this article serves as proof to back up that fact. His music has been featured on a myriad of  Spotify playlists like Lorem, New Music Friday, Fresh Finds and Bedroom Pop; So, if you somehow haven’t had the opportunity to check out some of his work, let this be the last time you’re able to say that.

The 9 song offering is the perfect way to get introduced to the Chicago, Illinois native who has been making some serious waves lately.

Chicago native Huron John returns to our pages today with the delivery of yet another warm, mesmerizing single titled “Maple Syrup Tears.” The young artist keeps things predominately tight as he is very self-sufficient and keeps all of the work; songwriting, production, and recording, to himself. The production on “Maple Syrup Tears” is simple, but it compliments John’s remarkable vocal production and touching lyrics extremely well. For him, “Maple Syrup Tears is about embracing the failures of adolescent love, but still keeping it danceable.” He said that “it’s a song about getting a little too self-reflective, but in the way that you learn a little something new. Bouncy drums, and a hook that’s supposed to be as sticky as that aforementioned brown pancake sauce,” John explained. “It’s a song about first’s, and the perspective that those first’s give us.” Huron John shows no signs of slowing down and according to his team, he has plans to release many more incredible records before summer hits this year. Stream “Maple Syrup Tears” below and be sure to follow John on Instagram and Twitter!

New to our pages yet beyond deserving, Chicago native Huron John just delivered a new visual that will have you glued to your screen. The young artist does it all, making himself very self-sufficient and as DIY as they come. As described by his team, Apocalypse WOW is a full-length, themed project that will be released in the form of 9 singles over the course of next year (2020). “From windows-down breakup anthems to intimate verses about the struggles of depression and anxiety, the project combines an entirely unique and personally transparent style with total accessibility”, they said, that John did all by himself. The visual below, in my opinion, showcases John’s captivating uniqueness and artistic ability as there isn’t one scene that feels like someone or something that’s already been done. Furthermore, “it follows a thematic format of a fantasy video game; encapsulating the warped and rainbow world that John’s music lives in.” Lastly and most importantly, “this visual is intended to be a glimpse into the universe that Apocalypse WOW describes: an overly-saturated portal that transports you directly back to whatever your definition of the ‘good-old-days’ is.” Be sure to get familiar with Huron John and his upcoming project …
