Bristol-based pop-rock band Chandra is back with their latest single “Lifted,” a song that promises to become the anthem of the summer with its feel-good, singalong vibes. Following their March release “I’ll Be There,” “Lifted” continues Chandra’s tradition of delivering catchy hooks combined with positive, uplifting messages.
“Lifted” is more than just a song; it’s a celebration of life’s perfect moments. Whether it’s catching your train on time and getting your favorite seat, enjoying a sunny day off, or experiencing the joy of a live gig with friends, “Lifted” captures the essence of those blissful experiences. Frontman Chandra explains, “We wrote this song so that wherever you are, whatever kind of day you’ve had, you can sing along and feel awesome.”
The track embodies the infectious joy that comes from having a great day and aims to spread that feeling to everyone who listens. It’s a reminder that while not every day is perfect, the positivity of others can lift us up and brighten our outlook. “I challenge you to sing along to this song and not be beaming by the end of it,” Chandra adds.
Chandra, a pop-rock quartet composed of Keith Jones (drums), Chris Wong (bass), Rock Cheung (guitar), and frontman Chandra Nair, has quickly established themselves as a notable presence in the music scene. Their unique brand of guitar pop tells rich stories of the human condition, tackling themes such as self-belief, confidence, and the ups and downs of mental health.
Their previous singles, “Pretty,” “Smile (No Fox Gibbon),” and “I’ll Be There,” received acclaim from press and curators alike, setting high expectations for their debut EP, also titled “Lifted,” which is set to release later this summer. “Lifted” was co-produced by Chandra and Elliot Vaughan, showcasing a polished yet authentic sound that complements the song’s uplifting theme. The band’s collaborative efforts ensure that the track resonates with both long-time fans and new listeners alike.
Accompanying the release of “Lifted” is a heartwarming music video that perfectly captures the song’s spirit. Chandra describes the concept as simple yet powerful: “The music video for ‘Lifted’ isn’t big, isn’t clever, and isn’t complicated. But we wanted it to be an honest reflection of what the song is all about; the infectious power of joy and the undeniable glow that surrounds us when we have a great day.” The video is a compilation of real people’s joyous moments, collected and shared in a four-minute celebration of happiness.
Chandra’s “Lifted” is poised to be a standout track of the summer, with its infectious positivity and relatable lyrics. It’s a song that encourages listeners to embrace the good days and spread that joy to others, making it the perfect anthem for any summer playlist.
As Chandra continues to rise in the music scene, “Lifted” is a testament to their ability to create music that not only entertains but also uplifts and inspires. Be sure to catch the release on July 19, 2024, and experience the feel-good vibes that Chandra brings with their latest single.
