Eli Lieb, Adam Lambert Collaborating On New Music - Quote :
- Out singer-songwriter Eli Lieb has confirmed rumors he's collaborating with Adam Lambert on new music.
“Yeah!” Lieb told The Huffington Post. “I don't know what I can really say, but we've definitely had some studio time together. Adam is, honestly, one of the most genuine people I've met in my whole time being in LA. He's just a rare person. He is so talented, but as a person, he's very kind, generous, humble and down-to-earth.”
Lieb also discussed coming out and his new single Zeppelin, which he called “a straight-down-the-middle, pop-rock song.”
“When I think of myself, my sexuality isn't the defining part of who I am as a musician,” he said. “I haven't written about the struggles of being gay because I've personally never felt that.”
