Following a rollercoaster decade, Hurts still believe in pop music. The synth-pop duo left a major label before releasing fifth LP Faith earlier this year. For vocalist Theo Hutchcraft it felt like a fresh start. “We love pop music, but we’ve always tried to make it on our own terms,” he explains. “It’s very important that there are people who make pop without being part of the ‘big pop machine’. These are the performers I’ve always appreciated the most. The album Faith refers to the fact that we first had to learn to believe in ourselves again. When we started working on the new album, we had to figure out which way to go. Faith also refers to the fact that there are people who have always believed in us over the years.”
Nevertheless, Hurts did have to take stock of their career after a couple of LPs that failed to set the charts alight. “There were many moments in the past, and still moments today, when I didn’t believe in myself._But as a musician you really have to overcome it and just keep going,” Hutchcraft adds. “We all feel insecure at times._But I think we also all have the power to achieve something.”
