Local singing sensation Lee Cole has cemented himself as the king of ballads, but the star is on a mission to prove that he is not a one-trick pony as he drops his vibey new track ‘No Fear, No Tears’.
Staying true to the emotional, strong storytelling aspect of his music, the new track has all of the Lee Cole elements we know and love and gives fans a welcomed surprise – but the creation process wasn’t a simple one.
“Creating ‘No Fear, No Tears’ was quite a journey for me because of its stylistic difference to the rest of my music,” explains Lee as he talks about the inspiration behind the single. “I’ve been meaning to write something vibey and upbeat for a while and this song just flowed with me from the beginning. I’m really obsessed with 80s kind of sounds and synths, so I really went to town to make sure those sounds are evident when you’re listening. This song is about finding the person you love most and just dancing with them through life’s difficulties and bonding together in the process. It’s almost a ‘reset’ on your connection with someone and a focus on everything bright that brought you together.”
The star also premiered the official music video for the track. “When Kyle and I sat down to discuss the direction of the video for ‘No Fear, No Tears’, we decided to try something a little different. I’ve never done a full-scale dance in one of my videos before and never have I done it with so many people in a flash mob style. I really wanted to paint a picture of unity and fun coming together in the night, which is what the song felt like it needed. I wanted to highlight the idea of dancing through your pain and I think we achieved just that.”
‘No Fear, No Tears’ follows the star’s successful hits ‘I Don’t Wanna Wait’, ‘Pink Dragons’, ‘Honey, Let Me In’, ‘Emotional’ and most recently ‘Cold’ – and is his first official release of 2022.
