Blue Medusa, the project featuring core members Alissa White-Gluz (DragonForce, ex-Arch Enemy, etc.), Alyssa Day (Mindscar) and Dani Sophia (ex-Till Lindemann) alongside live members Alicia Vigil (Vigil Of War, DragonForce) and drummer Delaney Jaster (Stitched Up Heart), have premiered a new video for their new song “Flying Monkey.” That track will be included on the group’s upcoming album.

Sophia commented:

“‘Flying Monkey’ was written in this really liminal space, this waiting area in between chapters in my life, and the melodies reflect the themes of the nightmares I was having at the time. No matter where I was, I kept hearing an out-of-tune music box playing in the distance…”

White-Gluz continued:

“‘Flying Monkey’ is exactly the kind of music I want to be making. I am so inspired by Dani and Alyssa. This Blue Medusa album is almost like writing my memoirs and I have loved every aspect of creating it.”

Day added:

“The bridge section of ‘Flying Monkey’ gave me a fun space to stretch outside my usual harmonic comfort zone and play with some scales and sequences I don’t always reach for. It turned into this quirky, sassy, techy little solo that I genuinely love playing. We had a blast shooting the video too, and I’m really excited for everyone to finally see and hear this one.”
