Lenny Zen rocks the world without any sugar-coating. This San Diego dude isn’t here to hold your hand – he’s here to rock your socks off and maybe make you question your life choices while you’re at it. “Stick Around” is his latest track, and boy, it’s got that indie-rock vibe mixed with some serious soul-searching that’ll have you upping the volume and maybe even considering some drastic life changes. It’s the lead single from Zen’s upcoming EP “Revertigo!” (dropping April 30th), and it’s for anyone feeling stuck between their past and future selves.
Now, get this – Lenny Zen’s a one-man show. He’s writing, producing, and recording everything himself. Hell, he probably even made the coffee while laying down tracks. This song was born in his bedroom, but it’s got the energy of a stadium-filling anthem. The sound? Think gritty synths that sound like they’ve been marinated in whiskey and drums that hit harder than your Monday morning alarm. And those hooks? They’ll be bouncing around your brain for weeks. “Stick Around” throws you into the deep end of adulting – where your rose-tinted memories of easier times crash head-on with the harsh reality of now. This isn’t some dreamy ballad about the good old days; it’s an in-your-face look at how your past keeps trying to mess with your present.
For a track about feeling unmoored, “Stick Around” sure as hell knows where it’s going. It’s a snapshot of an artist refusing to be pigeonholed, merging indie-pop melody with alt-rock muscle. And if you’re lucky enough to catch Lenny Zen live (he’s tearing it up supporting Pity Party in San Diego on May 1st), get ready for this track to blow the roof off.
“Stick Around” isn’t just music – it’s a lifeline when you’re spinning out. Lenny Zen’s showing us that rock isn’t gone; it’s just been hiding in some kid’s bedroom, waiting to kick down the door and make some noise. Better buckle up.
Catch Lenny Zen live May 1st in San Diego—before he explodes.
