Vocalist Brian says about the new single:
“‘Shades of Winter’ was the second song we recorded for the album. It’s got a little bit of everything in it, you can hear our influences shine through. One of my absolute favorites”.
John Howser (keys, piano) comments:
“‘Shades of Winter’ represents what happens when all five of us collaborate evenly. Soaring guitar work, keyboards creating an emotive atmosphere, dramatic vocals, and lyrics that tell a story. In my opinion, this track in particular really hits the right balance of our shared vision”.
The release follows TRANSCENDENCE’s recent signing to Cosmic Fire Records, marking a new chapter for the band as they prepare to share more music in 2025. “Shades of Winter” was recorded and produced with the same meticulous care as their earlier work, featuring new vocalist Brian Dixon (Resonance Theory), whose commanding performance elevates the track to new heights.
