Noa Zimmerman, singer/songwriter and filmmaker, has previously released five albums and two EPs, and has now revealed new single, “Empty and Divine”. It’s a song about finding a new way of being.

The song pertains to Zimmerman’s quest to “operate on multiple levels of consciousness: finding a way to be functional in the day-to-day and also how not to hold on to everything so tightly that it’s impossible to be in awe of existing at all.”

Zimmerman explains:

‘Empty and Divine’ came at a time when I felt like I was always taking the path of most resistance, always pushing back against everything life was throwing at me instead of opening myself to it.

The accompanying video is a “time capsule” of Zimmerman’s 20s. Zimmerman was the first woman to complete the Music Production major at USC’s Thornton School of Music, and the first person to complete a double major within the Popular Music Program.

In the years since, she’s made it her mission “to ensure her career reflects her belief in the responsibility of artists to push society forward by using their platforms to raise awareness about injustices, and inspire others to take action to create positive change.” 

In March 2020, Zimmerman co-founded and became Executive Director of The Artivist Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to “amplifying the voices of activist artists, and connecting them with local and global communities to advance social, racial, environmental, and economic justice.”
