Dolce Blue have just dropped their cool new track “Sugar Free.” It’s billed as an alt pop-rock number, but I’m hearing a little jazz influence in this one. It ushers in a new era for the band, who say they feel it’s “a step up in production, songwriting, and skill level as musicians.”
“I wrote this song when I was meant to be working because I was dreaming of being famous, instead of doing my job (fulfilling famous musicians’ rider requests),” said the band’s singer, guitarist, and songwriter Veronica Zurzolo. “We (the band) really focused on getting our individual parts sounding slick, sexy, and punchy, for me musically it’s inspired by Måneskin, but with our own Dolce Blue spin.”
“Sugar Free” is our first taste of the new deluxe version of Dolce Blue’s Sweet Melancholy album, which is scheduled for a late June release. It’ll feature four new songs, including “Sugar Free,” and three alternative versions of tracks from the original album. Sounds exciting! But before then, Dolce Blue will launch “Sugar Free” at four5nine in Boorloo/Perth on March 23.
