Asian-American singer-songwriter Cindy Zhang will be releasing her very first collaboration single of the year ‘Confession’ with South Korean indie artist LambC on 20 May 2022! Following the release of her last collaboration single ‘Hourglass’ with Korean-American artist Ashley Alisha last year, this new duet collaboration sparks a new spectacular sound compared to her other collaboration releases. Led by a soothing melody, the mellow voices from both singers brings out an authenticity that conveys the bittersweet emotions of a relationship which is full of doubts and insecurities. The song describes two lovers who acknowledge that they are in a toxic relationship and both are very careful in giving their all to each other.
Speaking on the collaboration process, Cindy shared that LambC was someone she always wanted to work with. She revealed that she had been listening to LambC’s songs since 2017, and was thrilling that he agreed to collaborate on this song.
Noted for his abilities as both a talented producer and a singer-songwriter, LambC is known for his heart-warming and melodious R&B ballads. Filled with harmonies from both singers, this romantic duet gives off a nostalgic and melancholic vibe with acoustic guitar and rock organ, showcasing their raw emotional voices in a heartfelt ballad.
On top of that, Cindy and LambC would like to dedicate this romantic song to all lovers around the world! This song marks a special day signifying that love is in the air as the release date coincides with ‘Confession’ Day in Asia. 20 May (‘520’) has, in recent years, become a Chinese slang which sounds phonetically very close to ‘I Love You’ in Chinese, become a day for people to confess and express their love.
Reflecting how hard it can be to confess your feelings, Cindy sings:
Why is it so hard to say the things I wanna say
I’m always feeling insecure and scared you’ll walk away
‘Confession’ is an indie bedroom pop track about not being able to say everything that’s on your mind to your partner, causing you to feel far away from each other despite being right beside each other. The single will be released on all streaming platforms on Friday, 20 May 2022, along with a lyric video on Wednesday, 25 May 2022 on Cindy Zhang’s YouTube channel.
