Violet Daze knocks it out of her park with her debut single “Across the Bay.” It’s a folk-tinged pop track that has me thinking of acts like Maggie Rogers, Laura Marling, and Ella Henderson. It’s rare to hear such a polished track from a new artist, but Violet is no stranger to the music industry. She’s worked behind the scenes for the past three years, but is finally ready to step into the spotlight.
“I want people to hear this song and not feel alone. I want them to feel seen,” the Sunshine Coast artist said. “It takes courage to delve into the self-reflective process of a break-up and come out the other side.”
The single is accompanied by a music video that captures some of Violet’s favourite places.
“It was filmed in locations that are significant to me personally and I feel that energy carries through the music video. The premise of the video is going on a trip that you had planned to do with your significant other, that you are now having to do by yourself and exploring the wave of emotions that go along with that,” she explained. “It was filmed by Dale from Whaley Films and Rachael Baskerville who is the face behind all of the Violet Daze press images. They brought the concept together seamlessly”
Violet Daze has got one of those voices that you just want to keep listening to. I can’t wait to hear more from this exciting new artist.
