Champagne Ambassadors by VAST ASTEROID
Vast Asteroid occupies a special place with their unique blend of heavy Spacegaze music. Hailing from Los Angeles and formed by frontman, James Poulos, best known as a political columnist with The Week, bassist Mimi Starr, and drummer Mark Reback of The Warlocks and Slaughter and the Dogs respectively; their self-titled debut, released in mid 2018, successfully captures their love and talent for melodic exploration along with memorable hooks, recorded at the Rancho de la Luna Studio in Jashua Tree (CA), owned by the charismatic Dave Catching of Eagles of Death Metal.
Following the recent COVID-19 outbreak, the band returns with the quick and enduring new single, CHAMPAGNE AMBASSADORS, a song of accurate perspective and the coming together as a sort of summation of all the band's been through, transcending instantly recognizable moods as something nature often does with its grandeur and subtlety. The new track is accompanied by a video created by Christian Stephen, who drew inspiration from both the pandemic quarantine and the song's lyrical content.
Champagne Ambassadors is a meditation on saying goodbye to the waves, and saying goodbye to the feeling of being pulled underneath their mercurial weight. The weight of love, the weight of regret, the weight of guilt shared, and futures split in two.
