Zach Adam remarked, “We are artists. We feel things deeply and have had to go through the motions. I am hoping this song and its music video spark a conversation about suicide and help to bring it out of the dark because change will only happen when the stigma loses its power.”
The music video for “Gravity” was directed by Zach Adam and filmed in New York. Adam Jospeh flew in from Los Angeles and he and Zach filmed it in two days. “I will never forget how unhappy I was putting my face on that Brooklyn sidewalk,” Joseph admitted. “Just imagining how many dirty shoes and dogs that cement had seen before me was very unsettling but I sucked it up and did what I had to do.”
“It has taken me years to work through my serious battle with addiction and depression,” Adam Joseph revealed. “It is something I am still fighting today and will likely continue to do so for the rest of my life. It’s not a feeling one can ever completely get over and that is why songs like ‘Gravity’ are so important. They are tools of encouragement that help people like me by reminding us to keep moving forward.”
“Gravity” was written by the powerhouse duo, and it was subsequently produced by Zach. Simply put, the single is a soaring pop track. It features Adam Joseph’s soulful tenor vocals over lush synths, sweeping choruses and intense percussion. It is the first release from the new music label, Magic Town Media, as well as the first single from Zach Adam’s forthcoming studio album, and it is available now on iTunes, Amazon and Spotify.
Zach Adam continued, “Adam and I have been collaborating for years as songwriters, but this is the first time we are releasing an original track together. Originally, we had the idea to do a song about love being a force of nature but a new, deeper, meaning and feeling began to develop as we started laying down vocals in the studio.”
“Suddenly, our love and break-up song revealed a layer that might raise awareness and give comfort to those who need it most,” added Adam Joseph.
Adam Joseph is an award-winning vocalist, producer, recording engineer and songwriter. He has released two solo albums and has been a featured vocalist on songs with Grammy-nominated DJ and Producer Bob Sinclar. He has written songs for chart-topping Billboard artist Inaya Day and his latest viral smash, “Linda Evangelista,” featuring Aja from RuPaul’s Drag Race was featured on the reunion special of the popular VH1 show.
