Danica Bryant - Acid

Following the success of two EPs, multiple charting singles, a
headline tour, Boosted campaign and opening slots for Robbie
Williams and Elton John, Aotearoa rising star Danica Bryant has
today released her new pop-rock hit, ‘Acid’!





An exciting, gritty and high-energy track, ‘Acid’ is laced with a
chunky bassline, driving guitars and powerhouse vocals
reminiscent of the artist’s experiences headbanging at high
school rock band gigs in the Hawkes Bay. “I wanted to create a
vibe as fierce as theirs - but still performable solo, which is a
tough line to walk!”





Lyrically, ‘Acid’ is all about queer sexuality. Think bubblegum
pop-princess meets sexy vampiress and they make a 2000s pop-rock
banger. “LGBT+ relationships are so frequently softened to cutesy
romances to make them more palatable to straight audiences,” says
Danica, “but this can make it hard for us to accept the parts of
ourselves that also crave sexual connection and intimacy. I
wanted to make a song that celebrates those wild feelings, and
hope [the young queer community] take a sense of joy and
possibility from the song, realizing they too can have all of the
intense, fun experiences the rest of the world is granted.”





Recorded at producer Jonny Avery’s studio, with support from her
band, Danica says ‘Acid’ is definitely an indication of more
music to come, so now is definitely the time to tune in and stay
tuned
