Earth to Cheska exudes “Power” in her latest single. Helmed by Cheska Zaide, this indie pop project is influenced by the likes of Weezer, Green Day, and Olivia Rodrigo, and it shows in the dynamic and electrifying energy of the song.
From the playful opening that feels like a poltergeist peeking mischievously, Cheska’s high vocals draw us in, commanding attention with every intriguing note in sync with the instrumentals. As the song progresses, it only gets more dynamic, with explosive drum beats and electrifying music that get your head nodding. Cheska sings with sass and attitude, imbuing the track with a teenage emo quirkiness that is undeniably infectious. She gets us empowered but also under her spell as she reigns over us like she is actually our higher power.
But beneath the bravado lies a vulnerability that adds depth to the song. In the bridge, the rhythm changes, softening into a gentle guitar melody as Cheska’s voice takes on a more vulnerable tone. With lines like, “Heaven’s gone and I don’t know what to do/Cause heaven looks a little bit like you,” she sings of lost love and longing, revealing a softer side that contrasts beautifully with the fierce energy of the rest of the song.
Cheska’s debut single, “Emily (Better Days),” was met with critical acclaim, and “Power” is sure to follow suit. Expect more releases in 2024 and also expect a tour across Europe and the USA.
So get ready to feel the power of Earth to Cheska with her latest single.
