Ziggy Alberts has had a busy year. Not content with releasing an ARIA Top 5 album, searching for freedom in the past 12 months, Alberts has now followed up his unequivocal success with a brand-new track to see us through to the end of the year called “I BELIEVE.”

Throughout this album cycle, and now into “I BELIEVE”, the track that bridges onto the next one, Alberts has proven time and again that his back-to-basics approach to production and songwriting has left him one of the most reliably authentic artists on the scene.

Beginning with a simple acoustic guitar strumming pattern and Alberts’ vocals, the listener is immediately transported to a simpler time, where Ziggy offers the reassurance that “everything will be alright.” He sings it with a quiet earnestness, ensuring that his message of patience and trust is conveyed perfectly through both music and lyrics.

Ziggy Alberts has always been known for his zen approach to music and lyrics, with his maturation as a songwriter only leading to more complex themes of hope and determination being translated into soothing sounds. “I wrote this song as a mantra to stay strong through hard times,” says Alberts of his new release. “I don’t know about you, but some days of late, I have truly struggled with the weight of the world. I deeply needed a song to sing that would keep my eyes out to the horizon, beyond the storms we are facing right now all over the planet – in our personal lives, our rights, our health, our work and our societies.”

Relatable, much? After the year and a half we’ve all had, we deserve the quiet calm of Ziggy Alberts to see us through to the end of 2021, a restorative Christmas period, and into 2022 and beyond. Give “I BELIEVE” a listen below and enjoy the calm for yourself.
