SOPHIA DANAI – SINGLE REVIEW

Sophia Danai – Guns and Gold 
Sophia Danai - Guns and Gold

Release Date: Out Now

The opening of this new single from Vancouver’s Sophia Danai made me think it was going to be a whispered, folky affair but then, well, then the beats dropped. ‘Guns and Gold’ is some sort of hybrid android consisting of club igniting alt-pop beats, 80s hair-metal guitars and the kind of vocals that you would expect to hear while a stadium sways in rhythmic awe. Danai switches between breathy delicate tones and empowered, triumphal proclamations while the music swirls around her in a haze of Little Mix, Lady Gaga, Muse and LadyHawke influences. This is a song sent from the future to make sure you have a good time and feel confident doing it. Resistence is futile.


Live Dates:

18th October – Adelaide Hall, Toronto w/ Trees + Jon Bryant
