Brooklyn-based nine-piece band Turkuaz recently released a new album entitled Life In The City, which includes the track “Make You Famous.” Turkuaz shared a video for the song filmed at guitarist Dave Brandwein’s Galaxy Smith Studios in Brooklyn.
Earmilk premiered the video and shared a statement from the band about the song:
It plays on the topsy-turvy world of touring and making music for a living. There are some references to the ups and downs of the road, the “hurry up and wait” lifestyle, and some of the well-known pitfalls of the industry. It’s meant to display a lot of the chaos we can feel day to day, and I think the music does a good job of simulating that feeling for the listener. The lyrics remain playful but like with a lot of the record, they explore the negative as well as the positive. Overall though, it’s a fun track, both on the record and the in-studio live version we did.
