British multi-instrumentalist and singer Jacob Collier's non-stop musical evolution continues with the release of "WELLLL," a wild, distorted-guitar-driven ode to intuition. Although not unexpected, given the 28-year-old artist's expansive, boundary-pushing journey, "WELLLL" once again finds Collier making a musical handbrake turn and speeding into unchartered sonic territory. Co-written with Remi Wolf, who also contributes backing vocals to the song, "WELLLL" delivers a feverish blend of rock, pop and punk, with an exhilarating music video that further showcases his talent as "the colorful Mozart of Gen Z" (The New York Times).

"WELLLL," which Collier debuted in front of 30,000 people at Glastonbury Festival, is his first single since last year's Grammy-nominated ballad “Never Gonna Be Alone” featuring John Mayer and Lizzy McAlpine. It arrives with the announcement of a collaboration with global footwear brand Crocs. A long-time Crocs stan, Collier has designed his very own limited edition Clog. It features a jingle bell detail attached on the back strap, the first-ever style that invites wearers to make music.
Says Collier: "Wellllllll, what can I say? This song is a collage of catharsis - a convergence of many musical materials I haven't explored until now. It features my custom-designed 5-string electric guitar, made by Strandberg, and harkens back to much of the rock music I loved as a child. It's a song about being a child, being wild, and listening to your heart. I can't wait for you to hear it."
Collier's career continues to hit stratospheric heights and he will headline the famed Hollywood Bowl on September 13. In the last twelve months alone he has seen his audience choir videos garner hundreds of millions of views, he was the first-ever male to be featured as a Vogue Darling, and he co-wrote and performed on seven tracks of Stormzy's landmark 2022 album This Is What I Mean. He performed as the 5th member of Coldplay on three of their four nights at Wembley Stadium, played over 100 shows across the globe - which included two sold-out shows at 5000-capacity Brixton Academy - and he is currently making his way across Europe and the US including his stage-headlining Bonnaroo debut last month. Collier is also on the cover of the latest issue of Rolling Stone UK, unveiled earlier this week
