Violet Sands and Deidre & the Dark collaborate on new single ‘Desert Rental Home’
About Deidre & the Dark
Deidre & the Dark is the solo project of Brooklyn-based songwriter and singer Deidre Muro. With her distinctive, alluring voice, she seamlessly blends her love for classic songwriting with pop and hybrid production styles, and touches of psychedelia. Prior to her debut album "Variety Hour" - "an album that's so lovingly crafted" (Shindig!) and that “.. delivers the kinds of hooks and euphoria found only in the very best pop records” (WFMU's Sheila B) - Deidre has recorded and toured the world as the founding frontwoman of indie rock band Savoir Adore, hypewoman/backup vocalist for indie dance duo French Horn Rebellion and singer of the electronic trio Violet Sands. You can hear Deidre's music in TV shows, films and videogames, and she is currently recording songs for a new EP, while also writing for and producing other artists at her studio, YouTooCanWoo.
About Violet Sands
The music of Brooklyn-based Violet Sands is an ethereal soundtrack for a rite of passage, harnessing the alluring vocals of Deidre Muro (Deidre& the Dark, previously Savoir Adore), the inventive production of David Perlick-Molinari (French Horn Rebellion) and the cinematic, classical-tinged arrangements of Derek Muro.
Embracing themes of beauty and the struggles of transitioning from one phase of life to another and a dreamy mix of nostalgia with the present, their genre-bending approach began attracting a following after they quietly uploaded two tracks to Soundcloud in 2016. Those tracks gained traction after a number of blogs organically picked up the songs, leading to the release of the “Strange Attractor EP.” The trio followed up with the release of their debut album “Hotel,” and shortly thereafter, a collaboration with DJ and producer Justin Faust yielded the single “What Do You Feel” - with a Jean Tonique remix that has continued to bring in new listeners to date from all over the world.
2023 sees Violet Sands back in collaboration, with the band members spread between Brooklyn and Los Angeles, exploring the next chapter of the project.
