In their latest single, ‘Hearts Awake,’ Caravãna Sun isn’t just delivering a song; they’re gifting us an anthem for embracing life’s challenges with a triumphant spirit. This upbeat summer track, released midway through the band’s Australian tour, is a sonic celebration of resilience, joy, and unwavering determination.

Caravãna Sun has evolved their sound into a euro-dance space, in which, ‘Hearts Awake’ is the perfect embodiment of their musical journey, featuring pounding percussion, densely layered synths, and irresistibly infectious vocal melodies that effortlessly captivate their expansive fan base. “Hearts Awake further pushes our band sound deeper and deeper into the party-dance arena,” the band say about the song. “We’ve been experimenting with electronic sounds for a few years now and ‘Hearts Awake’ feels like the first big affirmation of that pursuit to keep people losing their minds on the dance floor. So much of our energy has been focused on moving people live and this song feels like another step further to creating anthemic bliss at our shows.”

Produced by Joel Quatermain and engineered by Peter Holz in Sydney, ‘Hearts Awake’ showcases Caravãna Sun’s most polished sound to date. The track is a showcase of their growth as a well-oiled unit, maintaining the charm of their dynamic songwriting while elevating their sonic landscape to new heights. Thematically, ‘Hearts Awake’ unfolds as a heart-to-heart chat between friends, a plea that hope is not lost even in the aftermath of a relationship breakdown. The song’s structure mimics life’s twists and turns, rising and falling with expert precision, ensuring each crescendo hits the right emotional spot.

“This song was written about embracing hard times and coming out triumphant with an optimistic joy and determination to keep our hearts open to life’s wonder,” the band say. “With everything unfolding around the world, we wanted to encapsulate the need to keep our heart awake and not let heartbreak & loss taint our lust for life. Embracing all life’s colours and remain present to love as we are.”

Caravãna Sun’s ‘Hearts Awake’ solidifies their status as a must-see act, with a track as robust and emotionally resonant as this one, it’s clear that Caravãna Sun still have a lot to say as a band after all these years later.
