Gina Zo is a rising voice in the folk-pop stratosphere. Characterized by her bold, brazen attitude and cathartic vignettes on womanhood, her music strikes a chord in the collective psyche. Zo’s latest release, “Only Bad Men Make Me Feel This Way”, is written about embracing the chaos of heartbreak.
Lush, rolling riffs, striking percussion, and jaw-dropping harmonies saturate the track with sheer emotion. She sings, “I swear it’s not a phase / God I wish I never knew you / Only bad men make me feel this way.” The lyrics surrender to the visceral thoughts and dormant emotions stirred by a breakup that lands like a backstab.
The music video for “Only Bad Men Make Me Feel This Way” follows a relationship that looks perfect on the surface, but quickly spirals out of control. The memories of her and her lover are shot in black and white in contrast with a colorful stage that captures Zo performing in retrospect.
Gina Zo has an undeniably anthemic presence to her as an artist. “Only Bad Men Make Me Feel This Way” fits right into her canon of headbangers. It’s clear this is only just the beginning for Zo.
