Dear Stella releases power pop debut EP
"Time Zones" Nov 13, 2020
Nostalgia of the past, heartfelt emotions, child-like playfulness, tasty melodies and colorful productions paired with the singer’s unique voice define the enchanting sound of Dear Stella’s 2020 debut record “Time Zones”. The young Austrian singer, songwriter and producer Stefanie Drexler, who goes by the artist name Dear Stella, has collaborated with some of her musical favorites and power pop icons from different time zones.
The eclectic opener “Time Machine” was co-written and produced in Los Angeles by pop wizard Bleu (L.E.O., The Major Labels, Jonas Brothers, Demi Lovato) and features Jesse McGinty (The Lickerish Quartet) on a variety of instruments. The melancholic “The Last Kiss” was co-written and co-produced with Boston’s power pop darling Eric Barao (The Cautions, L.E.O.), the upbeat “What’s The Meaning of Love?” was produced by Germany-based power pop talent Kai Danzberg (Lisa Mychols, Drake Bell) and curated by Swedish pop song doctor David Myhr (The Merrymakers). The playful “As a Child” was co-written and produced by multi-instrumentalist and producer Matt Appleton (Reel Big Fish, DreamWorks) in California. There are two touching ballads on the EP, “Take Care Out There” (co-written by Welsh singer and songwriter Steve Balsamo) and “Brighton Beach” which were entirely produced and recorded by Stefanie Drexler in her own 'Time Capsule' studio.
