More about this title

About the Composer: Oscar Thomas Holter

Oscar Thomas Holter is a composer and arranger whose work spans contemporary pop and choral music. His arrangements have introduced contemporary hits to choral ensembles, bringing fresh energy and accessibility to the genre while maintaining musical integrity.

Why we love this

This arrangement captures the infectious momentum of the original while staying true to what makes the song work: a propulsive groove and an unforgettable hook that your singers will want to perform again and again. The optional solos provide flexibility for showcasing featured voices, and the SAB voicing makes it genuinely singable for mixed ensembles without dumbing down the harmonic content. It's the kind of piece that energizes an audience and reminds singers why they love performing contemporary music.

What to expect

Bright, exhilarating, and instantly familiar. The shimmering production of the original translates into an arrangement that feels both celebratory and emotionally open, with rhythmic energy that keeps momentum building from start to finish.

Who it's for

Mixed choirs of any age looking to add a modern, radio-friendly song to their concert repertoire. This works equally well for high school ensembles building contemporary skills or adult choirs wanting to stay current with pop music arrangements.

How to get the most out of it

  • Lock in the groove early. The steady rock feel is the foundation; once your ensemble commits to the pulse, the hook lands with real power.
  • Balance the optional solos carefully so they integrate naturally with the ensemble sections rather than standing apart.
  • Lean into the recorded accompaniment to nail the rhythmic and harmonic context; use rehearsals without it to build independence in your parts.
  • Build dynamic shape through the arrangement, especially toward that stadium-sized choral outro, so the finale lands with maximum impact.

How to use it

Pair this with other contemporary pop arrangements to build a concert segment that connects with younger audience members and demonstrates your ensemble's range. It also works as a standalone opener or closer that leaves audiences energized.

Skills your students will build

  • Maintaining rhythmic precision in a groove-driven context
  • Blending pop/rock vocal production with ensemble singing
  • Responding to recorded accompaniment accompaniment cues
  • Interpreting dynamics and phrasing in contemporary music
  • Confidence with optional solo passages and improvisation opportunities
