Emerging artist Connor Austin may still be flying under the radar, but his new single ‘Kissed You Again’, produced alongside Todd Tran and Patch Crowe, makes one thing clear: he’s not just another new face in the South African pop scene, he’s the one to watch.
The track arrives hot on the heels of Connor’s debut EP ‘Sky Blue Baby Boy’, released in April this year, a collection that cemented his status as one of pop’s most emotionally honest new voices. With previous singles like ‘Like You,’ ‘Someone I Don’t Know,’ and ‘Myself Again,’ Connor has already showcased a knack for pairing introspective lyricism with bright, cinematic production. ‘Kissed You Again’ continues that streak, balancing vulnerability with swagger and heartbreak with charm.
His new single glows with layered synths, crisp percussion, and a chorus that lingers long after the first listen. Lyrically, the song captures the push-and-pull of romantic uncertainty – the kind of connection that keeps pulling you back even when you know it shouldn’t. It’s a soundtrack for late-night messages and next-morning regrets, wrapped in effortlessly cool pop polish.
With every release, Connor Austin feels more assured, more like an artist defining his lane rather than chasing one. He’s crafting a sound that’s emotional, infectious, and authentically his. And if ‘Kissed You Again’ is any indication, that lane is about to widen.
We’re keeping our eye on what Connor does next, and with his track record so far, we’ve got high expectations.
