London Grammar first put "Hey Now" out in February 2013 on their Metal & Dust EP, and it carried over to If You Wait, the British trio's 2013 debut album, before finally getting a UK release of its own as a download in March 2014. Hannah Reid wrote the words and shares the music credit with Dot Major and Daniel Rothman, and the band produced it with Tim Bran and Roy Kerr, with Kevin Davis mixing and Manon Grandjean engineering.

It's slow, spacious and nocturnal, trip-hop-tinted indie pop where the silences carry as much weight as the melody. The single got as high as 37 in Britain and charted in France as well, and its video, posted to YouTube in February 2014, had pulled in more than 27 million views by May 2020.
