Never Back Down
Caleb Hyles first made waves when he released his cover of “Let It Go” on YouTube in 2014. Millions of homes around the world were enchanted by his riveting and theatrical covers of Disney, Broadway, Anime, and pop-rock hits. YouTube allowed for Caleb’s vast talents and warm, infectious personality to shine through with every cover, and fans quickly fell in love. Over the years of pouring himself into his work and creating exciting, diverse content for his fans, Caleb has amassed a close-knit fanbase consisting of more than 1.5 million YouTube subscribers and over 1 million monthly Spotify listeners. Fans eagerly seek out Caleb’s larger-than-life voice taking on their favorite songs and breathing new life into them.
Fans aren’t the only ones to take notice of Caleb’s massive talents. Television shows and video series like “RWBY” and “Nintendo Minute” have called on Caleb to sing for them. With momentum at an all time high, Caleb looked to embark on the next step of his journey – this time focusing on original music alongside Howard Benson and Neil Sanderson (Judge & Jury).
With “Just One Step”, “Idolize”, and “Darkness Before The Dawn” (featuring Lacey Sturm) marking the three already-released singles off his upcoming debut album with Judge & Jury, Caleb looks to the next and fourth release. Releasing globally on February 16, 2024 and titled “Never Back Down”, “The song cries out to a generation that has given up on one another and themselves; daring them to break the status-quo through faith, perseverance, and choosing to trust.” says Caleb. “We will “Never Back Down” from making the difficult decisions. We will “Never Back Down” from choosing to listen. We will “Never Back Down” from accepting that we all have a long way to go. Head above water. We will not drown.”
Joining Caleb on the single is Manafest, a Christian rapper and rock artist from Ontario, Canada. Manafest’s own extensive history with Christian Rock music, especially his success with Christian Rock radio (w/5 1’s) makes him the perfect artist to pair up with Caleb for a song involving powerful themes of belief and faith.
