Zak Abel Begins New Independent Journey with Latest Track "Home"

Zak Abel, the British singer-songwriter and musician, has released his latest single "Home" on January 17, 2025. This new track marks Abel's first independent release, signaling a new chapter in his musical career. The song was produced by Robin Stjernberg with additional production by Ollie Green, and the artwork and visuals were created by Johannes Lovund.

In 2014, Abel gained widespread attention as the featured vocalist on Gorgon City's UK Top 20 hit "Unmissable". This collaboration served as a launching pad for his solo career. He went on to release two EPs in 2015, followed by his debut album "Only When We're Naked" in 2017, which peaked at number 100 on the UK Albums Chart.

Abel's journey in the music industry began at a young age. Born on March 1, 1995, in London, England, he started writing songs at the age of 14. His early musical influences included soul and funk genres, with artists like Michael Jackson, Paolo Nutini, and Maverick Sabre shaping his sound. Before fully committing to music, Abel was an accomplished table tennis player, having been an English Cadet national table tennis champion.

Throughout his career, Abel has collaborated with various artists and producers. He has writing credits for songs performed by Paloma Faith, John Legend, and Sigala. In 2024, he worked with Kygo and Nile Rodgers on the track "For Life," which reached number 75 on the UK charts.

Abel's musical style is described as a blend of soul, funk, and pop, with elements of R&B and electronic music. His powerful vocals and emotive songwriting have earned him recognition in the industry, leading to performances at major festivals and venues across the UK and Europe.

As Abel continues to evolve as an artist, his release of "Home" and his move towards independence suggest an exciting new phase in his career. Fans can look forward to more music from Abel, as he hinted at upcoming releases and continued studio work in recent social media posts.
