Glassio shares transformative new rendition of “Atlantic City”
London based musical mastermind Glassio has released his rendition of “Atlantic City” and it is irresistible. The song originally penned and performed by Bruce Springsteen shares universal themes including desperation, taking risks, chances and more. Glassio is closing out the year by giving listeners a textured and cinematic indie electronica banger.
“Atlantic City” is one of Bruce Springsteen’s most evocative and striking songs of his catalog. Glassio understands the importance of the song’s meaning and feels that it is just as relevant today as when it was first written. He shares, “This is my melancholy-disco take on Bruce Springsteen’s acoustically-produced track ‘Atlantic City,’ a song about desperation, and one last chance. I feel like many of us are feeling this way with the world at large. I wanted to realize this song with the modern day in mind.” The remake feels both intimate and expansive with stacked synths, dreamy, introspective undertones and nu-disco infused grooves. Glassio’s cover is fresh, important and enthralling.
Glassio has spent over a decade creating music that combines elements of indie electronica, pop, rock, disco and more. His artistry lies in crafting songs that are both easy to get lost in and easy to relate to, making him one of the standout indie artists of his generation.
