Prepare yourself to be dazzled by a new shining star named Bryce Bowyn. Already well known for his blend of pop, electronic, dance, and rock, his performances are simply put, fabulous, bringing a high amount of raw energy and unapologetic lyrics.
The DC-based artist has been rising quickly within the ranks of the music scene by captivating audiences in the capital city and beyond. His previous releases, "A Bridge Burned Down," "Town," and "Barbican," were all successful hits, gathering praise from fans and several important publications. Yet, Bowyn isn’t one to rest on his laurels. He is releasing a brand-new single titled "Wicked Wings" — a track that promises a captivating listening experience. And with his upcoming EP set for release in late 2024, "Wicked Wings" is only the start of what’s to come.
In "Wicked Wings," Bowyn displays his unique yet familiar style, reminiscent of the early 2000s pop soundscape. This tune is like the love child of Cher and Depeche Mode, with a rhythm that will catch your attention the first moment you listen to it. Bowyn's distorted voice gives it almost a surreal quality, pulling you into an electronic dance reality where the synths get you moving.
The production is masterful, featuring layered synths that create a rich, textured sound. Expertly programmed electronic beats drive the song forward, while the use of reverb and delay adds depth and an atmospheric quality. The track's dynamic mixing ensures that every element is perfectly balanced, making it a sonic delight for listeners.
