Hillary Reynolds Returns With New Song “Can't Turn Off My Mind”
Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Hillary Reynolds returned with a new song “Can't Turn Off My Mind” on May 22, 2025.
It is her first music in five years since the 2020 “song What Faith Is”.
The song is the first single off of her upcoming debut album “Changing Seasons”, which is set to be released later this year.
Originally, she wrote the song years ago, but found new life after she reconnected with collaborator and dear friend Madison Malone in Los Angeles. What began as a reflection on insomnia and intrusive thoughts gained richer meaning over time - particularly as both artists became mothers.
The track was written by Hillary Reynolds, and Madison Malone. Produced by Benjamin Kopf.
The accompanying music video was directed by New Normal Studios.
Hillary Reynolds said of the song, “I love how playful it is. Sometimes we just need music that makes us feel less heavy. I wanted to put out an album that feels like saying 'hello' to an old friend and I feel like this first single is an invitation to that space.”- Hillary Reynolds began creating her debut album more than five years ago. But her plans came to a halt because the COVID-19 pandemic slowed artists down in 2020 and 2021, and she gave birth to her son in mid-2022. She resumed making the album in 2023 and finally completed it.
Hillary Reynolds said, “It's wild to think about how the album was written before I became a mother and then finished on the other side of that profound transformation. I already felt like a different person on the other side of the pandemic, but motherhood also threw me for a loop.”
She continued, “The postpartum journey was more difficult than I had imagined. I had to kind of gather pieces of myself, and that took time to stitch back together - a lot longer than I thought it would.” - source : Apple Music
