Story Behind The Song
After pining through the heartbreaks of sweet turned sour relationships the lead character in the song is ready to get revenge on past lovers by turning into the classic Halloween villain Freddy Krueger to haunt them in their waking and sleeping life. The playful hyperbole adds a fun and catchy element against the spooky Halloween backdrop.
Song Description
"Trick or Treat" is an indie pop/rocker that pays homage to the likes of Monster Mash, complete with haunting melodies, taunting background vocals, sound effects, and a snappy 1950s groove in a Halloween style. Recorded in her home studio in Nashville with members of local rock band Stray Nova and Parasocial Club, there is also a modern edge along with the spirit of fun and creativity among friends. This version has no lead vocals, only background harmonies, sound effects and laughs.
