I really respect artists who take the time to ensure their musical output is quality. Aurelia hasn’t released anything since “Are We Losing” last May, but she’s finally ready to unleash her follow-up, “Chest.” And boy is it worth the wait.
This is such a strong track, an emotional, lush, powerful piece of indie-pop, with smoky vocals and poetic lyrics.
“I got to produce this track with one of my fave partners in crime ‘Thrones’. We had some of the most unbelievable musicians, Matt Laug (Drums – Jagged Little Pill), Paul Bushnell (Bass – The Commitments), Dave Levita (Guitar – Lana Del Rey) come in and lay down their parts, and got to work in a few really incredible studios with the most amazing engineer Tom Weir (Blondie, Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin),” Aurelia says of recording the track in Los Angeles. “The process was really quite humbling and magical, and the whole thing came together seamlessly to create a sonic fabric that I’m so proud of and super excited to set free”.
Aurelia is home to launch the single at Melbourne’s Wesley Anne on February 17.
