Australian artist Ecca Vandal has released a new single, “Bleed But Never Die,” marking a significant return to the music scene after a brief hiatus to focus on personal and artistic development.
Ecca blends elements of punk, new wave, and hip-hop in her music. “Bleed But Never Die” continues this trend, as she reflects her unique style, which combines coarse punk energy with the lyrical introspection of new wave and the rhythmic pulse of hip-hop.
Discussing the inspiration behind the track, Ecca explains that “Bleed But Never Die” was born from a period of introspection and a desire to convey a message of resilience. “It’s about building inner resilience, which feels crucial given the intense state of the world at the moment,” Ecca says. “The song encapsulates themes of overcoming adversity and rejecting external pressures, a narrative that Vandal has woven into her music since her emergence on the scene.”
The creative process of the song involved a collaborative effort with her close circle, including impromptu sessions that captured the raw, unfiltered essence of the song’s message. That aforementioned approached comes from her early days experimenting in her garage studio, where she first explored the integration of diverse musical influences.
Ecca’s journey from jazz musician to punk and hip-hop artist showcases a long-awaited glimpse into her eclectic musical background and her ability to merge different styles across her work – not only showcases her versatility as an artist but also her commitment to pushing the boundaries of conventional music genres.
