Tessa Dalton is out with her new single “Whiplash” and it’s a soulful symphony. An elegant alternative rock song crafted with resounding bass, soft acoustic guitars and soaring riffs with a tone that slices through the soundscape. The song progresses through a soft and mellow section with crunchy strums on the acoustic guitars and the ambient backing. Slowly building up to the chorus, the distorted guitar chords blast through and resolve the built-up tension. The slightly sorrowful yet uplifting vibe of the song is also conveyed through the daunting lyrics, exploring the end of a relationship. The pain of separation, the realisation that something is not meant to be, the fear of starting again, and the emotions you go through can be felt through Tessa’s words and sounds.

Tessa creates a soulful composition, carefully arranging the instrumentation to make the listeners experience the music as if the song were about them. A thundering chorus and the soft verses build up tension to convey passion, and the result is a catharsis. Hailing from Nashville, Tennessee, Tessa Dalton is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who’s on a journey to share her music and passion with the world. Don’t miss the ride.
