NYC-born singer-songwriter Sam Setton has just released his latest single, “8 Years New Tears”. Known for his moody yet infectious electro-pop, Setton’s sound is reminiscent of artists like Lauv, Jeremy Zucker, and Bazzi, blending raw, heartfelt vocals with warm, electronic-infused production.
“8 Years New Tears” is a reflective track, chronicling Setton’s journey of personal growth and self-discovery over the past eight years. The lyrics reveal Setton’s realization that his path was filled with misunderstandings and mistakes, leading to new fears and tears as he contemplates his life choices. The pre-chorus and chorus emphasize the introspective nature of the song, with the repetition of “8 years” underscoring the lengthy period of trial and error that has shaped his transformation.
Setton’s career has been on the rise since he began experimenting with pop and electronic sounds, ultimately catching the attention of Paradigm Talent Agency. His impressive live performances, including shows at The Peppermint Club in LA and opening for Robert Delong at Bowery Ballroom, have solidified his status as an artist to watch.
