TVD Premiere: Vanessa Silberman, “Written in the Stars”

PHOTO: MICHELLE LOBIANCO | If you’ve ever wondered what comes next after introducing you to a new band or artist under the umbrella of our First Date feature, quite a number continue to stay in family as it were. Such is the case with Vanessa Silberman who we introduced you to way back in the good old days of September 2016. Today we’re delighted to premiere her fifth single of 2020, “Written in the Stars,” a gem of an earworm which was self-produced, engineered, programmed, performed, mixed and mastered by Vanessa with additional creative input, drum consulting, and backing vocals by Ryan Carnes, and additional gang vocals by Skylar Funk-Boorman.

For us it evokes the perfect backdrop and soundtrack for Fourth of July fireworks, but the track has its origins with another set of fireworks entirely. “The inspiration for ‘Written in the Stars’ came from someone who I fell in love with. I asked them to tell me their favorite songs, Vanessa tells us. “I also got inspiration from pop and hip hop drum sample beats to varied artists like Sia, The Beatles, Muse, the Goo Goo Dolls, Enya, Led Zeppelin, and Nirvana as well as bands my drummer Ryan Carnes suggested. The song lyrically is about having trust and allowing yourself to fall in love.”

“Love can be so absolutely beautiful but it can also be scary to be so vulnerable and let someone in. The message is all about chasing whatever you’re afraid of and really just taking a leap of faith. Now more than ever I feel like we must all take a leap of faith on the heart, especially after everything that has happened the last few months. Anything that’s in your heart is always worth taking a chance on or taking a risk for…”

“Written in the Stars,” the new single from Vanessa Silberman, arrives in stores tomorrow, July 3, 2020 via A Diamond Heart Production / Success Records through Symphonic Distribution. “Written in the Stars” continues Vanessa’s release of 1 song a month, leading up to an album release by the end of this year.
