Blace has released his first official single, “Crash and Burn,” a pop-punk-inspired track delving into themes of emotional chaos during a relationship. “Crash and Burn” is available now to stream and download everywhere.

“Crash and Burn” combines a punk rock edge with emotionally vulnerable lyrics to create a unique and passionate rock piece. Pulling from his real-life experiences regarding the decision to stay in a tough relationship, Blace dives deep in hopes of reaching an audience that has been through something similar. The track opens with enticing vocals and powerful lyrics and then quickly explodes into a high-energy call-and-response style chorus. The single is reminiscent of the early 2000s pop-punk/emo scene, parallel to the sounds of My Chemical Romance and Taking Back Sunday. “‘Crash and Burn’ was a song I wrote a few years ago,” says Blace. “This is a special song, and I knew I wanted to release it. It is very relatable in the sense that lots of people have experienced or are still experiencing being in with someone who makes their life harder. And even though they are in turmoil, they still choose to stick around.”

With an artist moniker that pays homage to iconic figures of rock and roll, Blackie Lawless (of W.A.S.P.) and Ace Frehley (of KISS), Blace officially began his music career three years ago when the pandemic sent him home from college. His nomadic upbringing from Maine to North Carolina and Minnesota ultimately led him to establish roots in Los Angeles, where he cultivated his artistic legacy. Drawing inspiration from the raw energy of Motley Crue and early pop-punk bands like Green Day and Sum 41 to the theatricality of KISS to the dark allure of Ozzy Osbourne, and the lyrical contents of MGK, Juice WRLD, The Kid Laroi, Blace’s sonic landscape traverses the contours of rock, punk, and alternative genres with effortless fluidity. Through passion and perseverance, Blace embodies the transformative power of music to transcend boundaries and inspire greatness.

On its surface, “Crash and Burn” is a catchy and exciting new pop-punk song, but looking deeper, one can see that it is a story about the trials and tribulations of love.
