Local Spotlight – Detra

by Joshua (J.Smo) Smotherman September 30, 2012 9:19 am Tagged With: Pop, Rock

Detra

Born and raised in this beautiful land of Middle Tennessee, Detra is Breaking Dawn with her newest single.

More and more each day the world realizes that Nashville is more complex than country music.

“Lyrically my songs sometime tend to be a little daring and I have to tame them down a bit,” she admits. “The lyrics just flow from my heart and deep within my soul.” she says. “I’m very excited with some of my latest songs and can’t wait for my CD to be complete,” she continued. “Lots of very exciting things happening with a couple of my songs but not at liberty to discuss right now Just stay tuned……the best is yet to come….I am a very blessed woman.”

It feels like Pat Benatar teaming up with Evanescence to show Lady Gaga who’s really the boss.

Detra’s music is a mixture of elements from pop, rock, and industrial that blend to form a tasty batter. Once the cake is out of the oven and delivered to the party, Trent Reznor emerges from the top tier to join the jam.

Detra grabs the mic, throws down icing in the form of mesmerizing, powerful vocals, and everything is complete.

I don’t even need to comment on the production quality. I just need to say that Michael Wagener (Ozzy, Metallica) mixed this track.
