ceyeo releases “Trying”

Hailing from Chicago, ceyeo is an independent artist on the rise. The writer and producer blends elements of rock, hip hop and R&B to craft his own sound which is characterised by his thoughtful and conscious lyricism.

An innovative artist with a far-reaching sonic vision, ceyeo makes use of unique instrumentation to create new and exciting music while furnishing his arrangements with electric guitar, bass, synths and conventional drums to keep his sound accessible. His emotionally-charged writing subverts the conventions of rock and pop music while maintaining a familiar feel carried by an alternative electronic rock sound.

Having dropped a string of well-received singles this year, he shares one of his recent efforts with the track titled “Trying”. Linking up with vocalist Poetic Justis as a featured artist, the song was written, arranged and produced by ceyeo in Chicago and mixed and mastered by Max Honsinger at Tileyard Studios London.

Flawlessly merging tinges of pop with smooth and silky R&B style vocals, on “Trying”, ceyeo spins a charming sonic tapestry that’s both intimate and captivating. In his typical style, the lyrics are laced by ceyeo’s profound word work and carried by stunningly graceful vocals from Poetic Justis.
