Kat Velasco Shares New Single ‘Burning Man’
Rising Western pop artist Kat Velasco has released her highly anticipated new single, Burning Man, a powerful anthem of transformation and resilience.
I am loving the tone of Velasco's voice and how rich and passionate her delivery is, effortlessly capturing my attention to her courageous exploration of self-reinvention and perseverance. Inspired by the iconic festival, Burning Man, Kat Velasco dives into the artistic freedom and metaphorical “burning” of one’s old self to make way for new growth. Produced in Nashville by Danny Zee and Cooper Galyon at Broken Door Studios, the song finds the talented artist masterfully intertwining the raw emotions of heartache and the catharsis of healing, creating an evocative narrative that resonates deeply with listeners.
Apart from her confident, passionate vocals, I am particularly fond of the lush, soaring guitar riffs which are seamlessly intertwined with a thumping beat and captivating drum beats that come together to create an overall warm, confident atmosphere with a chorus perfect to sing along to.
Speaking about the song, Kat Velasco said,
It’s a completely different sound than I have ever done, but also the project I am the most proud of. The idea of ‘Burning Man’ surrounds every single person's daily struggle. Life is a constant battle that we all have to overcome and I think this song brings a very different perspective on that. ‘Burning Man’ is a reflection of where I am right now, it’s about letting go of what no longer serves you, even if it hurts, and finding strength in the ashes. It’s a song for anyone who’s ever had to rebuild themselves.
