GRAMMY®-nominated pop-rock powerhouse OneRepublic is back with a fresh take on their hit track “Hurt,” this time featuring genre-blurring artist Jelly Roll.
Originally appearing on their latest album Artificial Paradise, released earlier this year, the newly released single breathes new life into an already emotionally charged song, adding Jelly Roll's soulful touch to Ryan Tedder’s dynamic vocals.
Accompanying the single is a striking new music video, directed by Isaac Rentz, who previously collaborated with the band on visual masterpieces for “I Ain’t Worried” and “Sink or Swim.” The video brings the song’s raw intensity to life, combining cinematic storytelling with vibrant energy, the video is as bold and heartfelt as the song itself.
With their sixth studio album, Artificial Paradise, showcasing standout collaborations and memorable tracks, the addition of “Hurt with Jelly Roll” further cements OneRepublic’s reputation as a band that’s unafraid to evolve. This reimagined version of the track, paired with a powerful visual narrative, offers fans a fresh perspective on a song already packed with emotion and artistry.
Since their breakout in 2007 with the debut album Dreaming Out Loud, OneRepublic has been a defining force in modern pop-rock. The album featured their GRAMMY®-nominated single “Apologize,” which shattered records and solidified their status as global hitmakers. Their follow-up album, Waking Up (2009), introduced fans to timeless tracks like “Secrets” and “Good Life,” while 2013’s Native delivered the chart-topping anthem “Counting Stars,” which remains a fan favorite to this day.
Fronted by the prolific singer-songwriter Ryan Tedder, who has penned hits for some of the biggest names in music, OneRepublic’s lineup includes guitarists Zach Filkins and Drew Brown, keys player Brian Willett, bassist and cellist Brent Kutzle, and drummer Eddie Fisher. Together, they have cultivated a sound that blends anthemic hooks, emotive lyrics, and masterful production, resonating with audiences worldwide.
With over 5 billion streams on Spotify and a discography filled with unforgettable hits, OneRepublic shows no signs of slowing down. Their recent ventures include the chart-smashing single “I Ain’t Worried,” featured in Top Gun: Maverick, and collaborations with artists across genres, reflecting their ability to innovate while staying true to their roots.
Whether exploring new sonic territories or revisiting their signature style, OneRepublic continues to deliver music that connects deeply with fans around the globe, ensuring their place at the forefront of contemporary music. “Hurt with Jelly Roll” is the latest chapter in their evolving story — a testament to their artistry and enduring appeal.
