We had the pleasure of interviewing Fritz Hager over Zoom video!

Fritz Hager released his latest single "Caroline\u201d on Friday, January 12th. The song followed the release of Hager\u2019s self-titled EP, which hit #1 on the pop charts, and his top 5 single \u201cHearts Align,\u201d which he performed on Kelly and Ryan. Here\u2019s a teaser of the lyric video that will be accompanying \u201cCaroline.\u201d

Hager grew up a typical preacher\u2019s kid, not just in the pews but in the stands with the choir. It was there that he developed his voice, and in sixth grade he picked up his first guitar and started writing, influenced by his heroes AC/DC, The Killers, Oasis, Ed Sheeran, James Bay, and John Mayer. He took a mental health hiatus after dropping out of college, which proved to be a period of growth and creativity, but like all people during the pandemic, he was faced with the choice of either putting his career on hold or indulging his dreams by whatever means possible. This led to his audition for American Idol, where he became a fan favorite, peaking at Top 5.

Since then, Hager has taken to the road, performing alongside Maddie Poppe and Leah Marlene, and embarking on the all-Idol \u201cDon\u2019t Blink Tour.\u201d He\u2019s also been hard at work in the studio, with his new single \u201cCaroline\u201d telling the fictitious story of a one-night-stand, a sitcom-esque drama wherein the male character forgets the name of his heroine acquaintance. "I write for two reasons,\u201d Fritz comments, "to bring sincerity into the mainstream\u2014making observations about the world, personal struggles, universal struggles\u2014and escapism, which is to simply zone out and have fun. There\u2019s a need for both, and I like finding the balance.\u201d
