zach templar feels everything (so you can too)
Zach Templar doesn’t write from the sidelines. His music sounds like a heart mid-break, like a thought half-said, like the ache of wanting something you probably shouldn’t. With new single “die 4 u”, the UK-Colombian lo-fi pop shapeshifter dives headfirst into guilt, longing and emotional disorientation - letting it all bleed out over grungy basslines, twinkling textures, and those signature buttery vocals.
Fresh off the back of his debut EP "in waves", Zach returns sharper and more emotionally charged. "Die 4 u" is less a love song, more a confession whispered at the wrong time. There’s no polished narrative here - just feeling, tension, and the mess of wanting someone else when you’re already spoken for.
“It’s a nostalgic cry,” Zach shares. “The production is simple but detailed, just like the emotions. It’s about guilt and desire playing tricks on you.” Influences? Think Tyler the Creator, Montell Fish, Steve Lacy - dark romance meets DIY honesty.
The result is a track that feels like walking home after a mistake - moody, melodic, and hard to shake. And while it’s intimate by design, it’s not small. Templar’s music lives in those enormous, unnameable moments - cracks of light between the sad and the cinematic.
Soon, he’s taking it all on tour, with dates across the UK and Europe this November. Expect dim lighting, vulnerability, and a room full of people whispering lyrics that sound like they wrote them first.
