Danica Bryant Shares Debut Album 'Feast' + Video For '(I'll Be Your) Drag Queen'
Danica Bryant dishes up a buffet of energetic bops, heart-bursting ballads and sharp wordplay on Feast, the Pōneke-based artist's debut album out in the world today with a video for new single '(I’ll Be Your) Drag Queen'. Standouts like 'Androgyny Alchemy' positively sizzle, piling up electro-pop hooks (even dog bark samples?) to giddy heights, as Bryant causes a party-rockin' ruckus welcoming the "divine unfeminine taking over me."
Her voice in superlative form throughout Feast's generous thirteen tracks recorded with producer Jonny Avery, Bryant ventures into open-hearted country-folk mode on 'Cinnamon' and 'Old Chocolate', while the sunny and fun jangle-pop of 'The Band' both accurately sums up tour van life, and neatly sets up onstage intros for her upcoming nationwide release tour. "An ode to femininity, queerness, and identity as performance," experience Bryant's clip for '(I'll Be Your) Drag Queen' featuring drag performer Bunny Holiday (TVNZ's House of Drag), tuck into Feast, and catch her with "three-piece not-a-girl-band" at the following dates...
“It’s all about coming of age and understanding how identity is a performance as much as a lived truth. I wanted it to be a fun, thrilling listen that never goes quite where you expect, and makes you think just as much as it makes you dance and sing along.”
