Boston singer-songwriter Zion Rodman will release a new alt-rock single “Living in Hell” on March 24, the lead single from an upcoming album due in May.

Inspired by watching the news, “Living in Hell” explores the absurdity of alternative realities broadcast by certain networks through melodic indie/alternative rock and folk-influenced songwriting. Fans of Paramore, Death Cab for Cutie, and Third Eye Blind would enjoy this song.

This is the first single released since his EPK in 2024, met with a sold-out release show at The Burren Backroom and a positive review in The Boston Globe: “Rodman’s collection [...] glows with optimism and gratitude, lending light to otherwise somber situations.”

Zion is an active member of the Boston music community, hosting open mics at Toad and Medford Brewing Company, performing throughout the city, and working as a sound engineer at local venues. He has appeared as a featured artist with We Black Folk, performed at Uncommon Stage in Boston Common, and played over 30 Sofar Sounds shows. He will support his upcoming album The Acquisition of All Things with another release show at The Burren Backroom on May 16th and a summer East Coast tour.

The single and upcoming album were recorded, mixed, and mastered at Rusty’s Recording Studio (Salem, MA) featuring Zion Rodman on guitar/vocals, David Greiff on drums, Christian Colegrove on bass, and Aaron Weitekamp on keyboard/synth. All music and lyrics written by Zion Rodman.
