Yungblud releases acoustic version of ‘Zombie’

Yungblud has dropped an acoustic version of his Grammy nominated hit ‘Zombie’. This comes as he will be taking on his biggest tour next spring which is 5+ months away from starting and completely sold out.

The heart-wrenching ballad is widely regarded as one of his most profound releases to date, written for his late grandmother who died from alcoholism and showcasing a striking new depth in his songwriting. The new version of the track is accompanied by an intimate music video, directed by Jesse Jo Stark.

Speaking about the track, Yungblud explained, “The song was written initially about my grandmother going through serious injury and trauma, leading her to become a different person to who she was before. It’s about the feeling of deterioration and ugliness; shutting out the world and the people we love out of the fear of becoming a burden or an embarrassment.”
