Manchester indie artist Jack Hyphen is back with his vibrant new single, “Not Medicinal.” Jack has steadily built a loyal fanbase with his intricate songwriting and radiant musicianship, starting his journey as the frontman of the Herefordshire indie/ rock band Point Zero. After the band’s breakup, he released acoustic singles and by mid-2019, he transitioned to a four-piece alternative pop/rock outfit, adding a dynamic and atmospheric edge to his sound.
“Not Medicinal” highlights this natural evolution, with intricate guitar lines, atmospheric modulation, and reverb, all layered over powerful drums and a driving bassline. Jack’s emotive vocal delivery blends energetic undercurrents with an ethereal touch, creating a unique and accessible soundscape.
Reflecting on the track, Jack says, “I am going back to my alternative rock roots with this song, written over 5 years ago but revamped as my style has developed. It’s a reminder that the illusions in my mind will fade away and are not reality.”
Jack has opened for breakout bands like Crystal Tides and Jeremiah Ferrari, earning acclaim from major tastemakers and loyal fans in the process. He is proving that he is very much still on the rise, and 2024 will likely be a standout year.
