VRSTY, the genre-blending post-hardcore/R&B band from New York City, have just released their cover of Nate Smith’s ‘World On Fire’. The original song was released on June 5th, 2023 and has been a massive success for the California-based country artist, reaching over 200 million streams worldwide and reaching #21 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Now, VRSTY has taken that song, and put their own twist on it.

"The first time I heard this song, I was absolutely stuck. I haven't heard a song that's hit me this hard in a long time. Everything from the lyrics to the way that it's composed is just absolutely amazing to me. I think I knew instantly that I was going to cover it. My only fear was not being able to do the song justice.. but I think I did okay." - Singer Joey Varela
VRSTY dropped its most recent album Levitate last fall via Spinefarm and will be going on tour this summer supporting Wind Walkers from June 15th to June 23rd. The band will then hit the road in August from the 17th to the 24 supporting A Skylit Drive on their Celebrating 15 Years Of Adelphia tour.
