Canadian artists Str8 Trip and Halfcut join forces on their heartfelt new single “Since You Been Gone,” a moving tribute to their late friend, mentor and musical influence, KING (Danny King), who tragically passed away in 2015 from a brain tumor. KING played a pivotal role in shaping the early artistry of both Str8 Trip and Halfcut, serving as both an inspiration and a guiding hand in their musical development. With this release, the duo carry forward his legacy the same way he helped ignite theirs—through the power of music.

“Since You Been Gone” delivers a raw and emotional reflection on grief, loss, and memory. More than just a personal dedication, the track resonates with anyone who has ever lost someone close. The vulnerability and honesty embedded in the song offer listeners both a space for reflection and a reminder of the healing force that music can be.
