Rising star and Bay Street Records recording artist/songwriter Iris Gold teams up with Eurythmics co-founder/producer Dave Stewart on her newest uplifting single, "Girl Pick Up Your Drum." The genre-bending track is as vibrant as they come and channels the free spirit of 90s alternative pop, the swaggering aura of hip-hop, and soulful elements to boot. Over the lush guitar riffs, punchy drum grooves, Gold bears it all and pours her inner strength on wax as she breaks away from societal norms that have long restricted women. Armed with her distinct commanding vocals, she proclaims her freedom with much gusto and implores her fellow women to follow suit and pick up that proverbial drum of strength. The track also features Stewart on Acoustic 6 String, Acoustic 12 String, Electric Guitar, Keyboards (Electric Piano), Percussion, and background vocals.
The visuals directed by Brian Totoro capture Gold's expressive and fiery demeanour with a dash of hot girl summer aesthetics. From the girl-next-door vibes, freestyle dance-off, and engaging performance shots, viewers can literally feel the energy oozing off the screen.
A multi-faceted entertainer, the London-born, Denmark-raised Iris Gold is poised to make her mark. Stream/download "Girl Pick Up Your Drum" on all DSPs here.
