"Channel your inner bliss with the help of this ethereal & airy song "
Billboard Indonesia

"Truly ineffable in its scenery, the humanity pours off the screen, a perfectly poignant accompaniment to an artist set to challenge culture, to create more of it, and to speak loudly not to the confines of what we are constructed of but what we could bloom into."

Ones to Watch
LISTEN/WATCH & SHARE: Hien - "Bloom"
Soundcloud Spotify / Youtube
Hien, the Vietnamese-Hungarian and Brooklyn-based artist, is ready to announce her upcoming EP BLOOM, due out this November. The lead single "BLOOM" conjures an ethereal, lush soundscape, uplifted by Hien's airy vocals. With her songwriting coupled with her pristine production, "BLOOM" is a perfect encapsulation of what to expect from the full EP out later this fall. 

In tandem with the audio, she shares her stunning music video to complement the track, writing:

While writing the songs for my upcoming EP, I visualized the initial music video idea for “Bloom”. I envisioned young girls living blissfully within the rich  nature of Vietnam. 
After learning more about Vietnam’s tribal cultures, I knew I wanted this film to represent girls who were raised in a matrilineal social structure.
The Mnong are 1 of the 54 ethnic groups native to Vietnam. They are also one of the few matriarchal tribes, in which the youngest daughter inherits their family wealth, children take their mother’s surname, and women propose to men.
The girls in “Bloom” are precious to me - their magic lies in their infectious joy and pure hearts.
Music video “Bloom” celebrates young girls, sisterhood and the cultural diversity of indigenous Vietnam.  


MV director: Khanh Nguyen
BLOOM captures the creative journey of rebuilding her identity as an artist and navigating life as a millennial Southeast Asian immigrant, who moved from Europe to the US for a new beginning.
