Listen to “Lock Me Up!” by Bentley Robles and Zee Machine
In 2023 through 2024, singer-songwriters Bentley Robles and Zee Machine solidified their status as dynamic collaborators with their captivating tracks “See Me Naked” and “Anyone But Him.” However, they elevated their partnership to new heights by embarking on a highly successful tour across the USA, Canada, and the UK. A standout moment came with their sold-out London performance as part of the Tears & Gearz tour. The tour was met with overwhelming enthusiasm, alongside a string of sold-out shows in the US. Notably, the entire tour garnered rave reviews. As a result, the chemistry between Bentley and Zee prompted them to boldly take the leap and officially launch the Tears & Gearz duo project. Where they will seamlessly integrate the duo project with their flourishing solo careers.
Before everything fully kicks off, Bentley and Zee have dropped their electrifying track “Lock Me Up!” from Bentley’s highly anticipated “Chaotic Erotica XXX” EP, releasing on 6th March. In this dynamic collaboration, they dive deep into one of Bentley’s signature themes: heartbreak pop. Together, they candidly share their feelings about navigating recent break-ups and the intense measures they’ll take to shake off the lingering pain. True to their style, this duo knows how to deliver—it’s all about the energy. You won’t find slow balladry here; instead, get ready for heartwarming, emotive electro-pop that makes you want to dance!
Similarly, instead of a traditional music video, the duo have chosen to unveil what they’re calling an official visualizer. Directed by Clara Giroux, the compelling clip captures the heartbroken pair as they sit in the back seat of what seems to be a police car. Their supposed crime? A desperate bid to erase every trace of their exes. The haunting lyrics—”As I look up at this town, think I wanna burn it down. All the city lines, all the places we went out. Avenues and signs, every person, every crowd. If you aren’t around, someone lock me up.” Furthermore reveal their angst and a willingness to resort to vandalism in order to obliterate any reminder of their shared past. This emotively intense visual and lyrical narrative powerfully illustrates the lengths to which heartbreak can drive us.
Undoubtedly, “Lock Me Up!” is classic Bentley Robles and Zee Machine material. Above all an anthem to gay heartbreak destined to become an all-time fan favourite.
