new classic rock feat. legendary studio musicians SAN FRANCISCO, CA, UNITED STATES, March 26, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- On April 12, 2024, Soul Twin Messiah will release its self-titled, 10-track debut album. The Bay Area-based duo infuses riffs and grooves from decades past with lyrics that are emotional, spiritual, and immediate. From crank-it-up anthems to powerful ballads, with recognizable and sometimes surprising influences, Soul Twin Messiah offers its music as an opportunity to connect, heal, and LOVE. Supported by session players with A-list credentials, the album was produced by the legendary Joel Jaffe.
The already released singles illuminate the diversity of musical styles as well as the consistency of message. About “Comfort You,” renowned music journalist and critic Ben Fong Torres said, “Rock ballads live! And this one has good, compassionate intentions, solid performances, and a bonus (on video, that is): actual hugs. A most comforting tune for these times.” The follow-up single, “Shut Up and Listen To Me” is a guitar-driven rock anthem that uses the proliferation of social media, biased news, and echo chambers to encourage thoughtful, honest, and mutual communication. And finally, “Mad LOVE Story,” released on Valentine’s Day, is an invitation for all of us to recalibrate ourselves toward a bigger, more universal and connective LOVE.
Other stand-out tracks are “Our Lady Mary Jane,” an ode to the trials and blessings of cannabis, and “Share the Riches With Me” about greed and classism.
“With our debut album, we wanted to make sure we made a splash showing what we can do musically and with the production, and wanted to share the variety of influences and styles that form the amalgamation of the STM sound,” said co-writer and guitarist Evan Gary Hirsch. Added co-writer and lead singer Kip Baldwin, “We hope to share our message of what a world founded in LOVE rather than fear could be. We’re not trying to be heavy handed in our songs’ messaging, so if all you get out of our music is the experience of good, classic rock influenced tunes, then by all means rock on!”
