DownVega - March 10th, 2016
from Radio One Chicago Hosted by Radio One Chicago
DownVega is an indie-pop trio from Chicago, Illinois, comprised of producer Jimmy Con (Comasoft, Ghosthouse), vocalist Beccy Schneider and Sam Lalk on bass. Brought together through a chance connection via craigslist, Beccy stumbled upon Jimmy’s ad soliciting a vocalist for a studio project. The two began writing in the spring of 2015 for their debut EP to be released on independent Toronto imprint, The Marigold Label. Drawing on the influence of artists like Chvrches, FKA Twigs and Whitney Houston, DownVega’s powerful debut single “Give You My Love” weaves Beccy’s sultry vocals with crystalline synthesizers and bold beats. The song evokes the tension of desire with lyrics of sympathetic longing — potent enough to glow in the dark.
