Stephen Webber - 'Here We Go'

Emmy-winning composer and Grammy-nominated producer Stephen Webber delivers a brilliantly playful antidote to digital overload with his new single ‘Here We Go’.

Powered by bouncing ukulele rhythms and a wildly energetic Americana arrangement, the track turns the peculiar habits left behind by lockdown into a funny, life-affirming celebration of actually being around other people again. His humour is matched by some formidable musicianship, with Grammy-nominated fiddler Casey Driessen, Infamous Stringdusters dobro player Andy Hall and drummer Caleb Gilbreth sending the track racing forward.

Its biggest flourish comes from vocalist Zahara (Annette Philip), whose exhilarating improvised performance pushes the finale into full communal-celebration territory.

There's also substance underneath the comedy as well as he champions getting away from our screens, showing up for one another and rediscovering the power of shared experiences. It's a reminder that sometimes reconnecting starts simply by closing the laptop and leaving the house.
