Sarah Hyland Covers the Chainsmokers’ ‘Closer’
Modern Family actress Sarah Hyland might be looking to jump-start a music career.
Hyland recently covered the Chainsmokers’ song “Closer” along with the band Boyce Avenue, and the 25-year-old posted on Instagram, “I’ve been dreaming of doing this since I was 19 years old!”
And it looks like her fans have taken notice: After only 48 hours, the video already has more than 3 million views on YouTube.
Her Modern Family co-stars responded with congrats. Ariel Winter complimented her cover, and Eric Stonestreet tweeted: “We’ve heard Sarah Hyland’s singing talent in the makeup trailer for almost 8 years.”
Hyland is taking over vocal duties for Halsey, who sings on the studio track. “Closer” — as you’re probably aware — is a huge hit and has spent 15 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100. Hyland’s version appears on Boyce Avenue’s recent EP Cover Collaborations, Vol. 4, where she also covers Maroon 5’s “Don’t Wanna Know.”
