Starting with fresh beats laid over mellow guitars in the verse before feedback-heavy

Bringing us on a complex journey of longing, relationships, mental health and family,
Yeo reminds us that life isn’t always picture perfect and that there doesn’t always

Never shying away from self-reflection and his cultural identity, last year saw Yeo
performing in a language other than English for the first time, releasing the duet 好好的
過 (Have A Nice Life) with Taiwanese-Australian singer-songwriter Chendy in
Mandarin which was well-received by tastemakers and playlist curators around
South-East Asia.
