Melbourne-based pop-soul sensation Hazel Ray has once again graced us with her latest gem, “My Demon,” released in July 2023. The track, produced by the legendary Steve James, known for his work with iconic acts like The Jam, Sex Pistols, and The Screaming Jets, as well as the timeless soundtrack “Always Look On The Bright Side” from Monty Python’s beloved classic film “The Life Of Brian,” brings an undeniable weight to Hazel Ray’s already impressive repertoire. Accompanied by a visually stunning music video directed by the talented videographer Jarrod from Ourfolklore, “My Demon” transcends mere music—it’s an immersive journey of self-discovery, strength, and empowerment.
