Lea G’s latest release, "EMPATH," showcases the Austrian singer-songwriter's ability to craft songs that explore the complexities of human emotions. With influences rooted in folk and alternative-pop, the acoustically-driven track draws listeners in with its intimate and relatable lyrics. Lea's vulnerability and honesty shine through as she explores the challenges of being an empath, feeling overwhelmed by the emotions of others and struggling to prioritize her own needs.
Despite its heavy subject matter, "EMPATH" is not a depressing song. The steady tempo and expansive, atmospheric production keep the track from becoming dreary, making it a cathartic and uplifting experience. With a video set to accompany the track, "EMPATH" is sure to resonate with many listeners who, like Lea, struggle with their sensitivity to the world around them.
She explains on the track that she "wrote EMPATH last summer when I felt like I constantly got super overwhelmed by other people ́s feelings because I was unable to separate my own emotions from theirs. I feel the song really helped me notice patterns within myself that I needed to heal so I could start taking better care of my own needs and not just those of others. EMPATH is a song for anyone who is very sensitive to the world around them and struggles to keep their head above water, for all those who overthink and care a lot.”
