Candice Hoyes

Award-winning interdisciplinary musician and vocalist Candice Hoyes announces her debut solo album, Expecting, out August 28 via LaReserve Records. The breathtaking new single, "Pink Clouds" is a dreamy, understated track that showcases Hoyes' gift for weaving jazz, soul, and classical music into something distinctly modern. "Pink Clouds" is catchy and sophisticated, framing Hoyes' pure, unaffected vocals in equal parts liquified soul and ethereal atmosphere. Her storytelling is poetic — drawing listeners into a world of warmth and vulnerability. With her signature sound that effortlessly blends genres, "Pink Clouds" marks a new chapter for Hoyes as she continues to push the boundaries of contemporary music. Having built her career performing alongside orchestras and ensembles — including the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, the Detroit Symphony — as well as collaborating with artists such as Wynton Marsalis, Philip Glass, Theaster Gates, and Lin-Manuel Miranda, Expecting represents her first full-length solo venture, a space entirely her own. With visuals to match, Hoyes steps fully into her own artistic world — one that draws listeners deeper into the emotional heart of the record.
