Empowering listeners with a message of hope, Zoey Tess’ “In These Dreams” continues to inspire a year after its release, surpassing 27,000 streams on Spotify.
“‘In These Dreams’ is about journeying to a place in our minds where our dreams are within reach. By believing in ourselves and letting go of our fears, we can create a life where anything is possible,” says Tess. “I aimed to craft a world within a song, a sanctuary for anyone feeling down, a place to discover inner strength.”
As a passionate advocate for mental health awareness, Tess has seen firsthand the positive impact music can have on mental well-being. The themes of hope and resilience in “In These Dreams” resonate deeply with listeners, providing comfort and strength during difficult times.
The intricate arrangement of “In These Dreams” combines live instruments, including strings and piano, with electric guitar undertones, creating a powerful musical experience. Co-produced by Zoey Tess and multi-instrumentalist Jake Siberon, the track showcases Tess’s exceptional talents as both a songwriter and music producer.
Grammy Award-winning audio engineer and record producer Mario J. McNulty, known for his work with David Bowie and Prince, brought additional depth to the track by providing magic to the final mix. Tess praised McNulty’s ability to capture her vision, stating, “Working with Mario was such a wonderful experience. He is such a pro at what he does and is one of the most humble, down-to-earth people I’ve had the privilege of working with. He took ‘In These Dreams’ to such a professional level, sonically. Mario’s success and achievements within the music business speak for themselves, and I look forward to continuing to work together on my future musical endeavors.”
