After having a blooming entrance to her music career with moments such as headlining O2 Islington with Academy Music Group, playing a sold-out headline show at The Waiting Room and being championed by BBC London as a featured artist, now Zoey Lily continues her journey with the release of her new single and music video, Friend. An alt-pop offering detailing the hardships of unrequited feelings whose music video is the first visual piece presented by the singer. “I wanted viewers to really get a sense of my personality and artistic direction so I wrote the treatment, co-directed and edited it myself taking inspiration from short films and a Parisian aesthetic,” she says.
I Wish I Had A Heart or Last Goodbye are just a small sample of the singles that the Anglo-French singer has ended up turning into songs with hundreds of miles of listeners on digital platforms. Having been selected and invited to take part in Tommy Hilfiger’s “Music Takes Us Further” Campaign, Friend is the start of Zoey’s upcoming EP Too Many Nights set to be released this autumn. A starting point where the connection with feelings is the protagonist.
"I wrote Friend about a friendship that slowly started falling apart when love got involved because I couldn’t return the kind of love my friend was looking for in me,” adds the artist, who makes truth, honesty and feeling her best allies, communicating them through the universal language that is music. And all this comes along with a music video where she has been super involved, making sure at all times that the final result was what she was looking for. There is no doubt that she is connected to art in all its forms and formats being a constant in her work. And we will get to know much more about her vision very soon. Stay tuned!
