When it comes to must-have summer releases, the debut EP from Tears & Gearz <\/a><\/strong>is undeniably at the forefront. The moment I discovered that Bentley Robles<\/a><\/strong> and Zee Machine<\/a><\/strong> were joining forces as a pop duo under their Tears & Gearz <\/strong>tour banner, I anticipated they would deliver some of the most exhilarating and delightfully campy pop music of the season. After unveiling their catchy singles “Delusional<\/a><\/strong>” and “George Michael,<\/a><\/strong>” they\u2019ve truly culminated their creative journey with the brilliant debut EP “Father Figure Fantasy<\/strong>.” They\u2019ve more than proven us right!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Referencing this collaboration as a glitter-drenched lovechild of\u00a0The 1975, Wham!<\/strong>, and queer heartbreak on the dancefloor. They certainly live up to the brief. Above all, this duo embodies an electrifying vision. Featuring the self-proclaimed Ugly Crier Bentley Robles and the magnetic singer-songwriter Zee Machine (whose talent for crafting evocative queer love songs is utterly mesmerising). The EP is a must-listen collection of heartbreak pop anthems, expertly infused with lush, immersive pop soundscapes. Drawing inspiration from the legendary songwriting of George Michael. Evidently, they deliver a striking musical experience that profoundly resonates and leaves a lasting impression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n \"Listen\n <\/a>\n\n\n\n\n
