Bio
With an attitude-laden snarl, guitar slung low, and no fucks given, Vera Bloom cranks the honesty and emotion all the way up in her music. The Washington State-born and Nashville-based singer, songwriter, and guitarist holds nothing back in her addictive hybrid of alternative, grunge, and punk. Instead, she beckons audiences to not only sing, but scream along with her, partaking in the kind of catharsis that only takes place in a haze of distortion. After building up buzz organically, Vera delivers a dose of reality on her 2023 independent EP, It’s Me. Focus single “Eyes On You” storms out of the gate on a galloping drumbeat. As the momentum increases, Vera sinks her teeth into a hypnotic hook punctuated by a promise, “My eyes are always on you”. On the incendiary title track “It’s Me,” tense hi-hats quiver as a hard-hitting guitar riff underlines a confident and charismatic chorus, “It’s me, all of me, take it or leave it.” Elsewhere on the EP are the tracks “Say Goodbye,” “Mud”, “Serenity,” and “Boxes.” Since debuting in 2021 with her self-titled debut EP, Vera has earned acclaim from No Country For New Nashville, Spill Magazine, East of 8th, and Nashville Scene, who named her its “Best Rock Transplant of 2021,” and has even hit the road with the legendary L7. With uplifting energy, Vera Bloom gives rock ‘n’ roll the kick in the ass it needed.
