Melbourne-based artist TRYHARD has been making waves in the dance pop music scene of Australia and beyond with a sound that always pushes the boundaries of his distinct sonic vision. Having previously worked with some of Australia’s top artists, he’s recently ventured out as a solo artist and quickly made an impact with fans and tastemakers alike.
Delivering the first taste of his pop-focused electronic sound, in 2020 he dropped his debut single called “Dopamine”. Continuing to share a string of well-received singles over the last two years, he now brings us his latest release with his new single “Taxi” following months of studying abroad and co-writing for several other artists.
Linking up with producer Matt McGuffie, part of Gold Coast indie pop outfit Ivey, together they spin an infectiously catchy electronic pop outing full of bright melodic leads and a danceable rhythm. Taking inspiration from Lorde’s sophomore record Melodrama, on “Taxi”, he crafts a heartwarming and uplifting sound.
Commenting on the single, the artists shares, “Taxi is the song people ask about the most. I sent an early demo of it to a few friends to check out and someone leaked it. Somehow the demo ended up getting shared around and played at parties, so I thought it was about time I released it myself.”
As the hype around TRYHARD shows no sign of slowing down, “Taxi” showcases and exciting artist on the rise at the top of his game on a song that’s as memorable as it is charming.
