Watching Dami Im perform her new single “Crying Underwater” before its release was one of the highlights of her recent Wyong show. She was clearly so proud of this introspective number and thrilled by our rapturous response. The song was co-written with Michael Tan, but Dami wrote most of it at home on the piano. It’s been given some modern production in the studio, but at its heart it really is a classic, confessional piano ballad.
“There is so much pressure in today’s society to always look happy so we end up feeling like we’re not allowed to talk about how we really feel. Just like you’re crying underwater where no one can see you crying,” Dami explained.
Dami still has plenty of shows left before she wraps up her Dreamer tour. Catch her singing this song and all your favourites at the following venues.
