On the heels of worldwide success and nearly 1 billion on-demand streams, Dennis Lloyd reveals his brand new single “Never Go Back” today—as the direct sequel and lyrical bookend to last year’s smash “Nevermind”. With “Never Go Back,” the Israeli global singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist delivers a swooning and soulful anthem primed for international impact. Backed by handclaps, hummable guitar, bilingual crooning in English and Spanish, and a trumpet solo, the song crescendos towards an immediately irresistible refrain, “I’ll never go back.”

Blurring the lines between pop, R&B, rock, and reggae, it hints at the scope of his signature sound, which he cultivated during the trip of a lifetime. After attending art school and enlisting in the army for 3 years in Israel, Dennis moved to Bangkok in search of a creative haven. Basking in the quiet space of a single bedroom apartment, left with no WiFi and only his instruments, laptop, and a microphone, he spent one year creating. It was during this time that Dennis composed and recorded 40 songs, including “Nevermind”, about a Colombian woman he met and fell for in Bangkok. Continuing their relationship following their travels, he then penned “Never Go Back” after their eventual breakup in Israel.

About “Never Go Back”, Dennis says, “I wrote it after we broke up during a really lonely time when I felt depressed.  If I don’t feel anything, I don’t write music. But I wrote and recorded this in 45 minutes. The song is a dialogue between her and me. It’s part of a group of four songs that tells the whole story.”

“Never Go Back” launches what promises to be an impactful 2019 for Dennis. Not only will he release his debut EP this Spring, but he’ll also launch a North American headline tour complete with stops at Coachella on April 14 and April 21 and Governors Ball on May 31. It kicks off April 7 in Vancouver, BC. Check out the full itinerary below. Tickets are now available for purchase here.

Crossing genres and borders, Dennis Lloyd pushed towards international stardom since his emergence in 2016. Born and raised in Israel, he learned trumpet and guitar as a young kid and eventually incorporated his multi-instrumental talents into dynamic, disruptive, and diverse pop music on his breakout single “Nevermind.” After self-releasing “Nevermind”, the track began gaining traction (unbeknownst to him while in Israel with no access to streaming platforms) and eventually amassed over 750 million streams, soared to #3 on Alternative Radio, and went platinum in several territories. It also received critical acclaim from Billboard, Geniusand TIME  who featured the track in their predictions for the “2018 Song of Summer”. Additionally, he was featured as YouTube’s Artist on the Rise and made his late-night television debut on Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!  Now, he ignites 2019 with his debut single for Arista Records,“Never Go Back.”
