Cole Phoenix Interview

How did your latest single, Hello move from initial thought to finished effort?   “Hello” is ultimately about the struggle to move on, to start looking again after falling for someone or even something that has proven to be toxic. It’s a survival song heralding a new beginning. That’s why New Year’s Day felt very appropriate for its release – hello 2015!
