Victoria Victoria’s stunning music video for new single “Magic”
Victoria Victoria is based in Winston-Salem and is the project of Tori Elliott. The indie-pop outfit draws from disparate influences including Regina Spektor, Imogen Heap and Feist on the new EP. Elliott musters up tremendous strength with the glossy, vibrant anthem “Sanctuary,” while simultaneously setting aside the synth-pop sounds and baring it all with the piano ballad, “Magic.” While adhering to her well-known sassy and rambunctious spirit, the songs on the new EP run the gamut from playful and childlike, to honest and contemplative. Her work is an exemplary display of fine-tuned attention to emotional detail, often exposing every raw nerve, while her stunning voice is front and center on every track.
