Following the release of ‘War’ and ‘Becoming The Fire’, Irish-Nigerian singer-songwriter Tolü Makay returns with her third single of 2025 ‘Highnote’. Blending R&B, soul, and pop ‘HIghnote’ offers an emotional glimpse into her upcoming EP, People Still Cry in Summer (out September 26th).

“Highnote is a sensual song born from desire, passion, and release,” says Tolü. “It explores the intoxicating vices we use to numb, distract, or elevate ourselves,whether that’s love, lust, or longing for escape.”

Tolü Makay will celebrate the release of ‘Highnote’ with a limited run of intimate shows (details below)
