Saint Blonde Signs To Pale Chord/Rise Records, Releases New Single "Trendsetter"
Emerging alternative rock act Saint Blonde has announced that they have singed to Pale Chord/Rise Records, with a roster that includes acts like Spiritbox, Thousand Below, and Holy Wars. In a press release, the band made the following statement:
“We feel super grateful to have a team around us now that not only shares the long term vision we have for the band artistically, but also allows us to lean into some of the things that make us unique. Instead of trying to force a sonic quality or viral moment, they’ve allowed us to just be Saint Blonde. And to us that's really valuable and special.”
Additionally, the band has unveiled their debut single and music video, entitled “Trendsetter”. The track was produced by Courtney Ballard (5 Seconds of Summer, All Time Low, Waterparks). The band added to their initial statement, touching on the meaning behind the song:
“ 'Trendsetter; is about the short lived nature of expression in the current zeitgeist. Everything is so rapidly demanded, consumed, commoditized, digested, spit out, and then forgotten for the next thing. As someone who wants nothing more than to make their art their living, this climate of consumption breeds all sorts of self-doubt, self-consciousness, and unease to make something for other people to enjoy (or what if they hate it, what if I don’t look good enough, what if nobody ever sees it etc.)”
