What do you get when you marry ready-made pop melodies with a house beat and a singer with real chops? If the past three years of charts are any indication, you have a hit on your hands. The formula remains undefeated on “Wasteland”, the latest from New York City’s VÉRITÉ.
There are echoes of past chart-toppers here: Rihanna’s “We Found Love” jumps immediately to mind, with its similarly propulsive beat and its fixation on love in hopeless places. Listen below, and be sure to catch VÉRITÉ this summer at The Great Escape and Dot to Dot Festival.
