Upon Wings Releases New Music Video For "The Dream"

Operatic metal act Upon Wings has unleashed its debut music video for “The Dream.” The video can be viewed via the group’s YouTube channel or in the player below.

“This was a huge accomplishment for Upon Wings, to release our first music video,” frontwoman Anne Erickson said. “We've received such a warm response for ‘The Dream,’ and I’m glad we were able to put together a music video to compliment the song. We are honored by the positive response and can’t wait to release new music soon.”

Upon Wings recently recorded new music at the Johnny K-owned Goovemaster Studios in Chicago with a producer who will be announced soon, and the band plans to release the debut this fall. The band also commented on its sound and history:

"Upon Wings hails from the U.S. and can be described as operatic metal with a classical influence. After creating the idea for Upon Wings, Erickson — who is also a music journalist for Gannett, Gibson, Loudwire and radio host and managing editor of Audio Ink Radio — entered the studio with Michigan-based, Grammy-nominated producer and engineer Glenn Brown to put the ideas onto tape. The result is music with a strong Euro-classical influence, showcasing Erickson’s classically-trained mezzo soprano vocals."
