With an alt-pop uniqueness, Argentine-American artist Pilar Victoria’s career started with virality. Catching the attention of labels with over two million streams, Pilar found an opportunity to collaborate with Grammy-award-winning and multi-platinum-selling industry powerhouses. Still backed by the press and streaming editorials, Pilar breaks down the walls of her initial entry, showing herself to have true quality and staying power.
With her latest single ‘Dancing In The Sand’, Pilar offers an elegant, acoustic-driven three-and-a-half minute track of neo-soul vibrance, the subtle leaning towards folk-pop allowing for a gorgeously ethereal and expressive balance. Stirring up the performance with her vocals, Pilar floats from phrase to phrase, building a dreamlike sensibility with the occasional let-loose reverb effect. The graceful layers of acoustic guitar and glittered synths are radiant, whilst the force of the drums makes for a punchy backdrop.
Pilar adds, “Dancing in the sand was a song I wrote about realisations I had when being in a relationship that wasn’t meant for me.” This feeling of realisation and self-reflection is present across the track, the artist choosing a delicate lyrical approach that allows a wistful dive into the internal conflict around leaving the relationship.
