"The Coal" is the first track to be unveiled off the upcoming debut by
Violetness aka Vanessa Upson, a Peruvian-American artist whose outré electronic pop draws on traditions of tribal music to come up with a sound that sometimes evokes the work of other mysticism-infused female artists such as Prince Rama or also Bat For Lashes. It's a finely arranged, sophisticated pop tune that shows more than enough promise to leave us longing for more.
Last Night in My Dreams, I Was Talking to You will be released March 16 on Portugal's
LebensStrasse Records.
