Acclaimed singer-songwriter, Cyn has revealed a mesmerizing new visual for her Valley Girl fan-favorite track “Love You Like I Want To” – Co-directed by Cyn, the video comes with the launch of her Valley Girl Zine – also revealed today – a special hand-made accompaniment to her debut album Valley Girl released in November thru Unsub Records/Capitol.
“I’m so excited to share this visual for my song ‘Love You Like I Want To,’” Cyn gushes. “I feel so lucky to be able to extend the story of this song with a super cute, no strings attached performance. I had so much fun dressing up for this shot and I think we nailed it.”
Hand crafted and written by Cyn and created to provide a more tactile experience into the Valley Girl world, the Valley Girl Zine is a 20-page booklet that offers insight into the stories behind Cyn’s music and more, providing poetic blurbs, a guide to the San Fernando Valley, quizzes, style guides and more. The process of making this zine was one of scissors, paper, magazine clippings, and many glue sticks. After designing each page, laying out each paper scrap and fixing it in a viewable fashion, Cyn scanned the zine to be printed as is – the old-fashioned way.
Speaking about the zine, Cyn remarks “Creating the ‘Valley Girl Zine’ was a labor of love and I had a blast doing it! This zine is basically a love letter to anyone enjoying the Valley Girl album.”
In November, Cyn released her full-length extended version of her debut album, Valley Girl – Extended via UnSub Records/Capitol Records. Following the release of Valley Girl: Side A – Lost On Laurel in September and Valley Girl: Side B – Los Angeles, No Offense.
Speaking about the new release, Cyn reveals, “I am thrilled to stop shouting this music into my hairbrush and instead, begin shouting it to the world! I have been alone in this valley for what feels like a lifetime, and it means the world to have the opportunity to invite you in. I wrote this album to make myself feel better, and so that is what I wish for whoever listens. With this music, I hope you feel inspired to smile, dance, laugh, and to feel that you are absolutely the main character in your own rom-com. xo“
