Rock band Hazel Gaze is releasing their latest single, “Who’s Sorry Now,” a dynamic classic rock tune.
With a fierce blend of electric guitars, raw vocals, and a lyrical narrative that hits close to home, this track will take listeners on a journey back to the golden age of rock. The single, accompanied by another new music video, is scheduled for release this Wednesday, May 1.
Lyrically, “Who’s Sorry Now” represents the common experience where a person feels undervalued and decides to move on, only for their former partner to realize the depth of their mistake when it’s too late.
With its upbeat tempo and powerful instrumentation, the track channels the spirit of classic rock while delivering a fresh, modern twist. “Sonically, I wanted the song to be reminiscent of the 70s, which was such an incredible era for music across so many genres,” says songwriter and producer, Russ Soper. “Having lots of big harmonies was important, combined with vintage keyboards that were also so prevalent at the time. I’ve always loved the vibe of an overdriven Wurli – it’s the epitome of the 70s sound. The music is based around that, along with a Clav and B3 for added measure! And Hanz absolutely nails that raspy rock ‘n roll vibe perfectly, like so many of the iconic vocalists of that time.”
“Who’s Sorry Now” was written, produced, and engineered by Russ Soper at his Brooklyn studio, with drum recording by Daniel Alba of Studo G, mixing by Daniel Alba of Megafonic and mastering by Oscar Zambrano of Zampol Productions. The track features lead vocals by Hanz, guitars, keys, and percussion by Russ Soper, bass by Konrad Payne, drums by David Cornejo, and backing vocals by Abby Ahmad and Rebecca Rubin. Production consulting by Daniel Alba. Music video by Patty Sway.
“Who’s Sorry Now” follows the release of “Dirty Little Secrets,” released last month. To stay updated on Hazel Gaze’s latest releases, follow them on social media and visit their official website.

About Hazel Gaze
Hazel Gaze hails from NYC. Their 2017 debut was the brainchild of Guitarist / Keyboardist Russ Soper and Lead Vocalist Hanz, creating music purely for the love of it. Blending 90s rock
influences ranging from The Black Crowes, Lenny Kravitz and Soundgarden to 70s icons such as Led Zeppelin and Humble Pie, the material was recorded in Russ’ Brooklyn basement studio. After highly-successful NYC shows, the band took a COVID-inducted hiatus, during which Russ crafted the material that would become Hazel Gaze II. Joined by Konrad Payne (bass), Mary Jo Verruto ((Keys / vocals), Molly Klein (vocals) and Spiros Arnakis (drums), the band is eagerly anticipating bringing their music to NYC-area stages.
