Inspired by Holden Caulfield, the protagonist of <em>The Catcher In The Rye<\/em>, my project revolves around an isolated, alienated persona who journeys through change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first track, \u2018See You Tonight\u2019, is an upbeat alternative rock song, showing the persona\u2019s joy and admiration of their &#8216;focus&#8217;. The recording is played by myself (Drums, Guitar), and Will Coleman (Bass, Vocals).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The centrepiece of the EP, \u2018Holden\u2019, is an acoustic, folk ballad with self-deprecating lyrics from the perspective of the persona. Cole Park\u2019s double-tracked vocal integrates with the Acoustic Guitar (myself), Bass (myself), and Cello (Miranda Green) to create a vast and fragile sonic world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The final track, \u2018All About You\u2019, is a song about loss, discovery, and nostalgia, with retrospective narration focusing on the persona from the outside. On the recording, I play all the instruments except for Tristan White on Lead Guitar, and Chelsea Daghita on Vocals. For the concert performance of this track, I have myself on Piano, Will Coleman on Bass, Cole Park on Rhythm Guitar, Tristan White on Lead Guitar, Connor Sandison on Drums, and Chelsea Daghita on Acoustic Guitar and Vocals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Artist Bio Victor Strange is a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer from Wollongong.
