Tori Kelly Drops Uplifting New Single "Hollow"
Tori Kelly's been garnering critical and commercial success by mixing big time vocals with her throwback-inspired pop on her debut full-length Unbreakable Smile. And the quickly rising star isn't stopping, with an upcoming re-release of the LP this fall. The forthcoming record is led by what sounds like an instant smash, versus the slow-building success of past singles "Nobody Love" and "Should've Been Us."
"Hollow" opens like a ballad with Tori's hushed vocals over gorgeous piano chords. But the chorus soon hits with booming stomps and claps as Tori's vocals soar, setting a very gospel-like feel for the rest of the tune. It's extremely accessible, fresh and doesn't feel late to the gospel-pop trend that surged in 2013 via OneRepublic's "Counting Stars," Ella Henderson's "Ghost" and the Fray's "Love Don't Die"
