Atlanta’s rising indie rock voice, Zoe Bayani, delivers a gut-punch of emotional intensity on her new single “Lamb,” a haunting ballad soaked in vulnerability and sonic grit. Drawing inspiration from the “Adoration of the Lamb” panel of the medieval Ghent Altarpiece, Bayani spins religious symbolism into a contemporary reflection on unreciprocated love. It’s not often a track feels sacred and guttural in equal measure, but “Lamb” achieves just that.
Produced by Tomas Uribe (known for work with Soccer Mommy and Bad Suns) and recorded at the storied Maze Studios, “Lamb” surrounds listeners with a murky, textured soundscape.
The arrangement anchored by Santi Cabeza’s swirling guitar work, Colton Clements’ thunderous drumming, and James Kopp’s brooding bass mirrors the chaos of romantic self-sacrifice. But it’s Bayani’s voice, fragile yet fierce, that cuts through the noise with poetic devastation.
There’s an almost cinematic quality to “Lamb.” It plays like a confessional whispered into stained glass. For fans of emotionally rich indie rock from Phoebe Bridgers to Wolf Alice, Bayani’s “Lamb” is more than a song; it’s a sanctuary for those who’ve ever loved too deeply and felt invisible in return.
