HOLOPIS.COM, JAKARTA – John Mayer, penyanyi dan penulis lagu asal Amerika Serikat, kembali mencuri perhatian penggemarnya dengan single terbaru berjudul “New Light”. Dirilis pada 10 Mei 2018, lagu ini menunjukkan sisi lain dari Mayer yang lebih segar dan eksperimental, menggabungkan elemen-elemen funky dengan sentuhan pop yang mengundang untuk berdansa.
Diproduksi oleh Mayer bersama No I.D., produser hip-hop terkenal yang pernah bekerja dengan Jay-Z dan Kanye West, “New Light” menampilkan perpaduan menarik antara gaya khas Mayer dengan beat modern. Lagu ini diciptakan dengan tujuan untuk membawa pendengarnya ke suasana yang lebih ringan dan ceria, berbeda dari lagu-lagu Mayer sebelumnya yang cenderung lebih introspektif.
