In anticipation of his forthcoming album, ‘What Were You Hoping For?,’ which hits stores on September 27th, Grammy winner Van Hunt unleashes the single “June.”
“‘June’ was written to mirror a person’s complicated moodiness,” says Van Hunt. “Some people are called pessimists because of their persistent dourness, but I think they are optimists. Sorely disappointed optimists. The song is my attempt to make one, in particular, smile.”
