No stranger to penning vulnerable pieces, emerging pop singer Zach Hood bared his soul on his somber new song, “lonely isn’t the word for this”. The 20-year-old put on an equally impassioned performance in the music video.

“This song describes the feeling of total emptiness in the wake of missing someone,” explains Zach. “You don’t just feel alone, depressed & hopeless; you feel the extreme ends of all those adjacent emotions to the point where you almost feel nothing. It’s a new feeling to me in the song, so to show how bad it really is and how much of that feeling is tied to this girl, I say I ‘wouldn’t wish it on anyone, not even you’.”

The young singer-songwriter was born in Daphne, Alabama. Currently, he’s based out of Los Angeles. You can keep up with Zach Hood on IG.
