Hamish has delivered “Singing In My Soul,” an irrepressibly warm single that offers a welcoming preview of his upcoming full-length album, “Significant Others.” At 53, the Stroud-based songwriter well-known to festivalgoers as the founder of Glastonbury’s fabled Rabbit Hole brings three decades of UK countercultural life to the table, leaning naturally into the open-hearted storytelling traditions of Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell.

Conceived while hitchhiking through New Zealand and recorded inside a half-ruined Herefordshire mansion, the track carries a rich, communal charm. Everything anchors around a steady, warmly strummed acoustic progression that gently pushes forward. A bright, playful melodic motif weaves across the rhythm before an expressive, jazzy counter-melody slips in, giving the arrangement an easy soulful lift.

At its core, the song traces the restorative power of profound companionship, exploring how a trusted presence can dissolve emotional static and return a person to steady ground. That grounded sincerity explains why it has grown into a favored piece for weddings and quiet celebrations alike.

In a musical landscape often dominated by detached irony, how rare is it to stumble upon something that simply wants to mend what hurts?
