ZAYN has released a live performance video to debut "Alienated", the second single from his forthcoming album, ROOM UNDER THE STAIRS.
The performance marks the first time ZAYN has performed live since 2016 and showcases his soaring falsetto within the intimate song. About the song, ZAYN commented: “‘Alienated’ was the first song I wrote for the album, so it kind of set the tone for the whole project - it shaped the way I wanted to approach the sound of my own voice, the styling of the guitars and the overall sonic direction.”
ROOM UNDER THE STAIRS, is due for release on 17 May via Island Records UK / Mercury Records, and is available to pre-save now.
