Avec Toi

VIZA’s 100 project continues to unfold, with the band’s next track ready for upcoming release on August 15, 2023. The fifth track from this new effort is titled “Avec Toi (From Paris with Love)”, a French love affair featuring a Greek tragedy twist where a passionate yet misunderstood lover takes his own life after being accidentally dismissed by his beau. This dramatic and edgy adventure is a follow up to last month’s release “Maggie Mae’s Tavern”, with many more compositions slated for a continuous stream of releases over the coming months into 2023 and beyond.

“Even though the song comes off as a fun little jam, the song was written from the perspective of a tragic Parisian love story on how quickly things can unravel in any romantic setting,” said frontman K’noup.“Musically I wanted to create something similar to Breakout the Violins, hence the accelerando section, and furthermore the band took the concept and added so much musical dialogue that it almost felt like the instruments – oud, electric guitar – were the characters themselves,” he added.

“This was a special track,” said theoudplayer Antranig Kzirian. “There was this natural building energy that was harnessed and the oud parts reflect this dynamic – in some ways this was a nod to the kef style folk improvisations of my youth,” he added.

The team continues to work and is excited for the coming months where a substantial amount of new material will be shared with fans. Yesterday, Ms. Information, Thunderbolt, Maggie Mae’s Tavern and Avec Toi (From Paris with Love) are just the beginning of this new and exciting effort as VIZA marches onward to the culmination of the 100 Project.

All new releases will be available on all major streaming platforms for your listening pleasure and/or purchase.

THUNDERBOLT

VIZA releases their third installment of their 17 song album 100.

“Thunderbolt” is the band’s highly anticipated new rock single, set to be released on all digital streaming platforms on June 15th. The single showcases VIZA signature style, blending powerful guitar riffs, thundering drums, and infectious melodies. With its dynamic arrangement and memorable hooks, “Thunderbolt” is sure to captivate rock enthusiasts and new listeners alike.

“The riff came to me as I stared at a Thunderbolt cable on my desk and bam,” laughingly says Shant Bismejian.

The song explores themes of perseverance and triumph, offering a relatable narrative that speaks to the human experience. With emotionally charged lyrics and a soaring vocal performance, VIZA crafts an anthem that resonates with authenticity and passion.

“From the minute I heard the musical composition that Shant wrote, I knew this song was going to be a firecracker. I had the lyrics and vocal melodies written within an hour of first hearing it,” says K’noup.

For their upcoming single, VIZA has embarked on an exciting creative journey by collaborating with a talented young producer, Vaz Jon. The band’s decision to work with Vaz Jon stems from their shared vision of pushing musical boundaries and embracing fresh perspectives that was showcased as well in the previous single “Ms. Information”.

The collaboration between VIZA and Vaz Jon has resulted in a dynamic fusion of the band’s established rock roots and the producer’s contemporary sonic palette. Their combined efforts have led to the creation of a single that not only maintains the raw power and authenticity of the band’s sound but also incorporates innovative production elements that give it a fresh and exciting edge.

“The pulsating hypnotic rhythm we crafted for Thunderbolt resonates deeply with me. Its driving momentum compels you to move along, and it’s really cool that we were able to capture such an immersive experience,” says Vaz Jon.

The combination of VIZA’s established rock prowess and the fresh perspective of Vaz Jon promises to deliver a single that will captivate both long-time fans and new listeners alike. The band is excited to share the results of this collaboration and believes it marks a significant milestone in their musical journey.
