Los Angeles, CA – May 10, 2025 – After four years away from Minecraft-inspired music, top-charting artist CG5 is making a powerful return to the blocky universe with his latest project: a sweeping rock opera titled “Hold The Mine.” The brand-new single drops May 9th, riding the wave of excitement sparked by the recent Minecraft movie.

“This isn’t just a comeback single—it’s a full-scale musical adventure,” says CG5. “With big emotions, big guitars, and a storyline that hits home for any Minecraft fan, I wanted to create something that felt like the game itself: immersive, unpredictable, and deeply personal. The movie reminded me how many people Minecraft has impacted, and I knew it was the perfect time to go all out.”

Blending his signature sound with powerful storytelling, CG5 reimagines the Minecraft experience through a rock opera lens. Fans can expect high energy, heartfelt lyrics, and a journey that captures the spirit of creativity and discovery that defines the game.

“Hold The Mine” will be available on all major streaming platforms on May 9th, accompanied by a music video premiering on CG5’s official YouTube channel.
