"I swear I have the best intentions / My heart is tried and true / Far from a shade of golden / Hope silver's fine for you" sings Chris Russo in Highwind's latest single, "Fine For You." Highwind is the pop-rock passion project of the New Jersey singer-songwriter and drummer, Dan Smith.
“Fine For You'' was written during a time where I wasn’t sure of what to do next," explained Russo. "It was written out of anxiousness from not feeling like I’m working hard enough, and wanting to feel like I’m good enough. This song also marks a huge pivot in sound for Highwind. This song, both lyrically and sonically, is a big change in the direction of Highwind, and I couldn’t think of a better song to showcase the new chapter of this project."
The track was produced/engineered/mixed by Connor Hanson and mastered by Mark Johnston. The music video was directed, shot, and edited by Kris Khunachak.
Highwind’s aim as a pop-rock act is to tell an honest, relatable story by means of catchy hooks, colorful guitar parts, and infectious rhythms. After working with producers such as Adam Cichocki (Kaonashi, Soul Blind, Gatherers, Like Pacific, and more) and Connor Hanson (Halogens, Mandancing, Latewaves, and more), as well as performing with acts such as Young Culture, Homesafe, Handguns, and Shallow Pools, Highwind is ready to take their stories to your stereo and to your stage.
