Manchester based singer-songwriter Jay Hofman returns with his new single ‘Alibi,’ released as the second single from his forthcoming album Magnum Opus, following July’s uplifting release ‘Salida.’
Blending an infectious electropop atmosphere with reggaeton influences, ‘Alibi’ is a fun, energetic celebration of music, freedom and living in the moment.
The song captures the excitement of a night on the dancefloor — where the music takes over, inhibitions disappear and strangers connect through a shared desire to have a good time.
‘Alibi’ is a reworking of ‘Juicy,’ a song originally written and released by Jay Hofman in 2015 as part of his album The Modern Vintage.
The new interpretation of ‘Juicy,’ once again brings CASA J’s distinctive electronic approach to Hofman’s songwriting, transforming the original into the vibrant and dancefloor-ready ‘Alibi.’
The remixed track shines thanks to smooth beats, catchy bass tones and soulful vocals which give life to uplifting lyrics.
The accompanying music video plays with the idea of revisiting the past through a contemporary lens.
Since emerging on independent platforms in 2011, Hofman has developed a diverse catalogue spanning pop, alternative and other international influences.
A compelling live performer, Hofman has appeared across the United Kingdom, United States, Poland, Italy, Spain and Germany, often incorporating visual storytelling and theatrical elements into his shows.
His work continues to explore reinvention, self-discovery and personal freedom while maintaining a commitment to ambitious, personal and multicultural music.
