Los Angeles - After achieving local success in the Los Angeles club scene and being featured on KLOS, Rising Elijah has teamed up with Rock Solid Talent Entertainment/ AMG/SONY Music for their next single, "Blue 72," which will be released on all major streaming platforms 9/24.
Produced by Chris Flores, (Slash, K-Ci & Jojo) "Blue 72," delivers a sultry yet heavy and romantic single that contrasts their previous efforts and solidifies Rising Elijah as a staple in the new wave of Rock n' Roll.
Rising Elijah's riffy and high energy sound pays homage to the classic sound of the Sunset Strip while also courting a modern sound and production value that rivals their current counterparts.
"Blue 72," will be distributed via RSTE/AMG/SONY and will be accompanied by a music video by Sunburst Films.
Record label- Rock Solid Talent Entertainment
Producer- Big Chris Flores at The Rehab Studio. L.A.
Distributor- RSTE/AMG/SONY - PR Log
The track kicks right into high gear with an up tempo Hard Rock style. The guitar riffs are on point from the get go. The first verse drives along at full speed and doesn't let up. The chorus has that old school Hard Rock flair that'll get the listener singing along in no time. A guitar solo follows before the second verse kicks in. Another guitar solo follows the second verse before the bridge. The bridge dips down and eventually explodes back up into the chorus and guitar swirls to help close out the track.
Verdict:
Rising Elijah's newest single is on point and looks to elevate them to even greater heights. - From the Depths Ent
From Los Angeles, California, Rising Elijah is a hard rock band that brings a modern spin to vintage heavy metal. The band consists of four members; Chase Enriquez on the vocals, Peter Razo on guitar, Ian Shea as bassist, and Chris Blackavar on the drums. Rising Elijah is fresh to the hard rock scene having released their first single “Shoot ‘Em Down” in January, 2020. Since then, they have been featured on the Klos morning show and played at many venues including Lucky Strick Live, the Garage Bar, and the Viper Room.
Their next single “Silent Death” was released in April 2020 and brings fans more of their heavy energy sounds. “Silent Death” has a riffy guitar intensity throughout the whole song. Chris pounds on the drums with traditional heavy metal style, captivating fans with the hardcore beat. Chase Enriquez also has a typical rock voice and he shows off his impressive range in “Silent Death.” The modern spin comes from Rising Elijah’s unique vocal trills and the guitar riffs. Both Peter and Ian display their musical talents with impressive riffs and solos. As a group, Rising Elijah effectively holds true to conventional aspects of hard rock while mixing in their own personalities. - BuzzMusic
Hard Rock band from LA, Rising Elijah, definitely deserves a listen. Formed only last year, Pete “Raz” Razo, Chris Blackaver and Chase Enriquez already have a debut album set to be out winter of 2020 and we can’t wait. Until then, their lead single “Shoot ‘Em Down” is out and it does not disappoint. Heavy guitar riffs backed with a complimentary, and equally engaging, rhythm section, gives their music a mix of vintage and modern feel.
Right off the bat, a powerful start to the song in the guitar and the vocals immediately grabs your attention. “Shoot ‘Em Down” keeps up high energy throughout the song but changes pace in the bridge. The change of rhythm in the drums introduces a new groove before seamlessly transitioning back to the original rhythm to lead into a guitar solo. The execution of the solo is precise, clear, and the wailing adds a very classic element to it all. If you’re feeling down and need to listen to a song that will build you back up and give you strength, this is it! “Shoot ‘Em Down” spreads the message of staying authentic and continuing to believe in yourself and that’s something we all need to hear every once and a while. No more letting other people’s opinions or expectations hold you back! Rising Elijah has already played numerous gigs and venus including Universal Bar & Grill, the Garage Bar, and the Viper Room. We hope the album continues to bring success to this band. - BuzzMusic
