CECE VEE – “THIS WASTELAND” EP
South African alt pop powerhouse Cece Vee has seen a string of success stories over the short span of her career so far, steadily growing her global fanbase with international playlist placements, a sync placement in US TV show Good Trouble, blog features in EARMILK, as well as a SAMA (South African Music Awards) nomination for Artist of the Year. The release of her highly anticipated second EP “This Wasteland” follows growing praise after the release of her dark sci-fi alternative track Funeral for the World” and electro pop ballad Wishes” earlier in 2023.

“This Wasteland”, produced by Paul Gala of Bad Future, is a conceptual EP that explores heartbreak, mental health and the state of the world through a dystopian/post-apocalyptic lens. The ‘wasteland’ represents a feeling of emptiness after heartbreak, struggling with depression and anxiety, or just as a reaction to the state of the world we live in. “It’s important to allow yourself to go through these emotions when they hit you in order to heal. We are living in a world that takes so much out of us. The way forward is to go through, and we have to take that difficult journey and cross that desolate place to forge our own way out,” Cece explains.
 
The lead single “Holiday” is an upbeat dance-pop track with a hint of retro 80s influence, describing the monotony of day-to-day life and longing for more. “Many people go through the work week like zombies, feeling burnt out and going through the motions until the sweet freedom of the weekend rolls around. As a creative person, I can’t stand doing the same thing every single day. It’s important to take a break when you can and do what sparks joy for you so that you can experience a fulfilling and joyful reality, and really LIVE.”
 
The visually stunning music video (produced by Joshua Cookson and co-directed by Cookson and Vee) is an enthralling art piece that transports the viewer into Cece’s world.
