Courage My Love is a high energy trio comprised of Mercedes Arn-Horn on vocals and guitar, Phoenix Arn-Horn on vocals, drums, and synth; and Brandon Lockwood on bass. Their upcoming full-length titled Synesthesia is slated for release via InVogue Records on February 3, 2017.
Synesthesia is a 14-track new age fusion of indie, pop, rock, and dance. The record begins with the warm electro swells of the introductory title track, “Synesthesia,” and builds up to the foot-tapping inducer known as “Animal Heart.”
With an anthemic presence, each song on Synesthesia possesses a fiery relatability through ignited electric guitars, dirty bass, shimmering keys, and raw vibratos.
Favorites such as “Drowning” and “Dirt” marry haunting atmospheres with contagious rhythms to produce medleys worthy of club soundtracks while staying true to their indie roots.
The trio has managed to donate their personal touch to create a level of pop music that never abandons authenticity while offering unforgettable hooks and fist-pumping choruses.
Each track is unique enough to introduce friends to a band they’ve never heard while also making a birthday party playlist.
