More about this title

About the Artist: busbee

busbee is a Nashville-based songwriter and producer who has shaped the sound of contemporary pop and country music. Her work spans collaborations with major artists across genres, bringing a keen ear for melody and emotional authenticity to every project she touches.

Why we love this

Ryan O'Connell's arrangement captures the contemporary energy of this track while keeping the vocal writing singable for three-part ensembles. The SAB voicing opens this modern pop tune to choirs that might otherwise sideline newer material, and the 14-page score suggests enough harmonic and textural variety to keep singers engaged.

What to expect

Energetic and contemporary, with the kind of emotional directness that defines modern pop songwriting. The three-part voicing creates space for individual vocal colors while maintaining the driving momentum of the original.

Who it's for

Choirs seeking to expand their repertoire with accessible contemporary pop arrangements. Works well for groups wanting to program music that resonates with younger singers and modern audiences without sacrificing musical substance.

How to get the most out of it

  • Keep the rhythmic precision tight in the unison passages; the pop idiom demands crisp articulation rather than legit singing.
  • Balance the solo moments against the full ensemble sections so featured singers can shine without overwhelming the blend.
  • Lean into the contemporary groove; this arrangement rewards rhythmic confidence and controlled energy throughout.

How to use it

Pair this with other modern pop arrangements to create a themed concert segment, or use it as a pops concert closer that connects with student performers and audience alike. The accessibility of SAB voicing makes it ideal for mid-season programming when you want to build ensemble confidence with material singers actually want to sing.
