Saint Rien Reveals Spectacular Debut Single – “Tell The Truth”
Australia-born and LA-based multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter and producer Saint Rien has just dropped his debut single, “Tell The Truth,” a spectacular cocktail sitting at the intersection of nocturnal neo soul, sarcastic alternative, and hip pop provocations. The song addresses the corruption of mass media and political structures, a phenomenon described with a rare mastery by this incredibly talented soul.
The eclectic artist unveils his signature style, a complex layering of multiple genres into one coherent and very personal sonic structure, all the while developing his vision of the current state of the world. He puts it best and says, “The message itself is neutral, not necessarily singling out a single party, affiliation or ‘side,’ but more so the whole system. The aim of this video is to be a symbol of the Youth pointing out how broken the whole system is as we’ve unfortunately found out the hard way this year.”
An artist who might very soon become the voice of an entire generation, Saint Rien breaks illusion and creates a kind of music that goes beyond any form of genre categorization, powered by a vocal range that spans 4 octaves (F2 to F6). The music video released alongside the song visually points out what it feels like to be ushered violently through the fear and hate being spread via all news and social media channels.
At 16 years old, Saint Rien joined the Australian band Storm the Sky as frontman and emerged as its key songwriter. For the next eight years, the band quietly became a phenomenon Down Under, touring with everyone from Sleeping With Sirens and The Used, to Pierce the Veil, earning the endorsement of Rolling Stone.
