Zoe Konez Shares New Single ‘Time For Tea’

British singer, songwriter, guitarist and producer Zoe Konez shares her brand new single Time For Tea, a raw and intimate track that delves into themes of loneliness, mental heath, and the often-unspoken need for support. 

 

The follow up to September's soothing I Don’t Want To Be Lonely Anymore, Time For Tea beautifully showcases Konez's ability to capture the complexity of human emotions through her unique blend of ethereal indie folk and acoustic sounds. A relatable piece of music with honest, heartfelt lyrics that are beautifully delivered through Zoe's smooth, enchanting vocals which radiate so much soul and emotion instantly making me feel each and every single word she is singing. It's quite difficult to ask for help when struggling with mental health issues and this song beautifully captures that need for support over a delicate acoustic guitar-based melody and enchanting harmonies in the final section that provide a sense of hope and an emotional release. A song packed with emotion and melancholia but with a hopeful touch that I believe will resonate with most listeners. Have a listen to this stunning gem below!

Speaking about the song, Zoe Konez reflects,

Time For Tea began during the lockdowns in London when I was doing daily livestreams to stay connected with my audience and keep myself going. I was inspired to write a song about the experience of the Time For Tea sessions. I started to write the song a couple of times and at first, the song felt too light and optimistic, but over time, I realised I actually had become more isolated. I had stopped live streaming, and life was ‘back to normal’ but I hadn't managed to reconnect with that pre-lockdown social life still, even after a couple of years. The writing of the song evolved into something much more honest—about feeling lost, trying to reach out. It’s about asking for help when you're feeling low and recognising how powerful it can be just to sit down and talk with someone.
