Award-winning composer Steph Copeland and “violin girl” Brigit O’Regan have collaborated to create “Gas Light,” a beat-driven, classically inspired, dark-pop single carried by delicate vocals, brooding lyrics, and contemporary violin. This unique tune is one of the best pop songs we’ve ever heard! The song comes with an outstanding video that would definitely give you a better experience while listening. The production of this song is polished and sounds very professional, and the atmosphere is unique. Copeland has a charming voice and this incredible masterpiece shows off all of the melodic tones of her stunning voice. She has so much talent when it comes to singing and songwriting, and her original music sets her apart from the crowd. We hope you love this song as much as we do!
WHAT THE ARTIST SAYS ABOUT THIS SONG:
“The song’s inspiration comes from our own unique experiences of being gaslighted. We wanted to incorporate both meanings into the lyrics, leaving it open to interpretation for the listener. Watching recent leaders use gaslighting techniques and trigger tactics to push their agenda leaves us (and many) asking questions like: ‘Does everyone see how crazy this is? Am I the crazy one? Has the world gone crazy?’. We also drew from personal experiences with ‘gas-lighters,’ mostly in professional settings, both in and outside the music industry. Since the goal of a ‘gas-lighter’ is to make you question your sanity so they can manipulate you, we felt this was a relevant topic in a post #metoo, politically polarized climate.”
