Singer-songwriter Zach Churchill is joining the list of artists using the COVID-19 pandemic as inspiration for artistic expression.

Churchill has just released “Would You Believe Me,” the second single off of his upcoming project Heartbreak and Hope. “’Would You Believe Me’ is about a deluded, hopeless romantic trying to convince himself that it’s possible to turn a fantasy into a reality,” Churchill tells. The emotional track recounts the story of a 6,000 mile long-distance love, developed online during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the desire to turn this somewhat unrealistic fantasy into a vivid, real relationship. Among the plethora of hardships and difficulties everyone has experienced since March 2020, many people struggled with loneliness during periods of lockdown and self-isolation. 

Zach Churchill spins this relatable struggle into a love song that gives the audience chills with the heartbreaking tone of strained desire expressed by his lyrics. The acoustic ballad gives the audience a fusion of emotions with melancholic lyrics like, “I might never meet you,” paired with a calm, soothing melody that could easily be the backing to a track with more positive lyricism. Being a song that has many layers, it can be easy to overlook the true meaning behind “Would You Believe Me” when only listening to the melody or not knowing the backstory. The depth of this song is what offers such charm and sets Zach Churchill apart from many other artists at the moment.
