Maddie Zahm – “Everything All The Time”

Hailing from Boise, this singer and songwriter grew up in a devout Christian environment, which led to her becoming a youth worship leader aged 13. In this role she also learned to sing and play the guitar. At 19 she was a contestant on Season 16 of American Idol and made it to the showcase round. Since she’s played venues like Bowery Ballroom and Bush Hall and opened for P!nk. Inspired by Janis Joplin, Noah Kahan and Lady Gaga, she released her debut “Beautifully Human” in 2018.

Singing about hyper-empathy in an overwhelming world, her new single captures the sometimes crushing weight of feeling emotions too deeply and navigating that in a world of political and social despair. Taken from her upcoming, same-titled album, expected on September 25th, the song sonically mirrors the stages of a panic attack. From the delicate piano representing loneliness to a climax of sweeping guitars, booming drums and dynamic vocals, this tune is a cathartic journey.
