Manage episode 338512704 series 3140001
Sarah McTaggart lead vocalist of the pop-rock band Transviolet joins STRIKE A CHORD. In order to cut through the white noise you need crazy ideas to connect with people. How did the horror series Saw inspire their first single “Girls Your Age” –AND to help build a fan base? From a relatively unknown band to opening for 21 Pilots the band was thrown into the spotlight after some twitter love from Katy Perry and Harry Styles. BUT how does “Girls Your Age” correlate to their new single “Love and Power?” It’s about reclaiming your voice and power. Waves of orchestral strings and synth keys rumble over your ears. It feels like the opening theme song to a David Fincher film. Take the diamond pill “Drugs in California” is another seductive track that puts you in a trance—accompanied by a music video that is just as tempting. What is the most addictive drug? You can’t snort or inject this one, it’s external validation. Wanting to be wanted is an intoxicating libation to an artist. Follow, support and enjoy at : http://www.transviolet.com
