To celebrate the news, Sydney shared a captivating official Live Performance Video of her beautifully haunting new single “We Hug Now,” which is breaking in real time now.
Following a quiet grind, “We Hug Now” has fueled Sydney’s reintroduction this year. Initially, it overtook TikTok, inciting 400K “creates” and generating 1.3 billion cumulative views. Amassing nearly 40 millions streams, the song landed in the Top 3 of the Spotify US and Global Viral 50 Charts, the Top 15 of the Shazam US Top Songs Chart, Top 30 of the Apple US Songs Chart, and Top 20 of the Genius Overall Chart.

Simultaneously, the singer and songwriter has garnered enthusiastic critical acclaim. Billboard noted, “The post-relationship song starts as a gentle, echoing ballad, a la Rose’s musical hero Phoebe Bridges – but it’s the climax, after a switch to a more cathartic mid-tempo singalong, that has taken off on TikTok, with countless users connecting with the lyrics.”
