“Bittersweet” by Roman Tragedy is one of the most addictive indie pop songs I’ve heard so far this year. The song has a fantastic beat, with soaring harmonies, and guitar riffs for days.
And my favourite part is that Roman Tragedy call themselves a “Female Fronted Boy Band From Western Sydney,” reminding me a bit of bands like Toronto’s The Beaches.
The duo came together in 2018 when lead singer Maz met guitarist Josie in a Japanese bookstore, and since then they’ve been perfecting their “neo-poptimist” style.
“Bittersweet” was produced by Chris Blancato (Northlane, Hellions, Bare Bones) and the band says they take inspiration from “the likes of Jack Antonoff’s Bleachers and early Panic! At the Disco”.
