Pete Hubbard returns with “How I’ll Go”, a song that takes on one of life’s biggest subjects with warmth, curiosity, and a quietly mischievous sense of humour. Rather than fearing the idea of mortality, the lyrics in this new record lean into it. Wondering, smiling, and finding comfort in the not-knowing.
Known for his honest songwriting and lived-in raspy vocals, Pete has built a reputation for telling stories that feel personal but familiar. His songs are rooted in everyday moments of work, pain, reflection, small joys and How I’ll Go continues that narrative, asking big questions without ever feeling heavy-handed or bleak.
At its heart, “How I’ll Go” is thoughtful yet playful. A catchy, tongue-in-cheek chorus. The song’s instrumentation is beautifully simple, allowing the story to breathe. BCMA Best Musician nominee Chuck Walton features on pedal steel, lifting the track with warmth and subtle character before bringing it to a fun, gently uplifting conclusion. His playing adds a sense of lightness that perfectly mirrors the song’s outlook.
Unhurried and welcoming, “How I’ll Go” feels at home on a relaxed drive, a quiet evening by the fire, or a moment spent staring into space and letting your thoughts wander. Reflective and beautiful, it shows Pete at his most open and at ease, comfortable enough to talk about death without losing sight of life.
