Kygo released third album ‘Golden Hour’
It has been three years since Kygo released his last album. On Friday after months of teasing, he finally released his latest effort ‘Golden Hour’. An impressive 18 track offering. There are many great collaborators on the project including One Republic, Zara Larsson & OH Wonder.
This is probably his most diverse set of work to date whilst not steering too far away from the sound that we know and love from him. Some of the stand out tracks that we fell in love with include ‘Could You Love Me’, ‘Beautiful’, & ‘Freedom’!
“I was fortunate enough to work with some of my favourite artists and writers on Golden Hour,” Kygo shares in an official release. “There are quite a few songs on the album where I had the chance to collaborate with our team. These are artists I believe in. Working with some of my favourite up-and-coming musicians really made these songs special for the album.” Listen to the album below 👇
