Following wide-spread acclaim for “Oh Baby,” the single written for her yet-to-be-born son Beau, Dallas recording artist Zoe Zobrist has spent the past few months cultivating tracks that speak to fans on an intimate level. Today, the young songwriter has dropped her new single “Better” on all streaming services, after exclusively premiering the song’s music video — directed by Shan Dan Horan (Demi Lovato, Julia Michaels) — via Hollywood Life.
“Better” serves as a reminder that our pasts do not define us — we must allow ourselves to grow and change in order to open our life’s next chapter. In the outer layer of the track’s production listeners can find comfort in its indie folk softness, nestled with Zobrist’s sincere and vulnerable lyricism. The swooning track will certainly move audiences; “Better” is the perfect anthem for personal growth this spring.
“‘Better’ is a diary-like, coming of age expression of the realization that some things in life aren’t what you expected them to be. It’s about healing. It’s about letting go and moving on.” – Zoe Zobrist
