ViVA Trio Interview

Symphonic pop trio ViVA Trio are set to share their latest single “WILD and FREE” on Friday, September 24, 2021. The track was produced by multi-platinum producer Ryan Louder, known for his collaborations with Dua Lipa and Dido, who also co-wrote the song alongside the group. Their new music breaks boundaries, blending a vibrant mix of genres that all come together in ViVA Trio’s unmistakable style.

With its powerful operatic vocals, “WILD and FREE” captures a bold, cinematic energy that feels like the anthem of a fearless heroine. The song is part of a concept album inspired by Russian and Danish folklore, where ViVA Trio bring to life a rich fantasy world through sound and storytelling.

We had the chance to chat with ViVA Trio to learn more about their creative journey and the inspiration behind it all.

So, what's up with the ViVA Trio? What's on your mind?
As we speak right now, we are away in Pennsylvania USA for our Nothing Else Matters show.The next set of shows we are booked for are our Christmas shows with full orchestra in California and Boston as well as the production of our upcoming album set to be released in 2022.

Tell us everything about your new single 'WILD and FREE'?
WILD and Free is a feature track on our upcoming album WINTER LEGENDS. It is a departure from the music we have put out before, but we are loving it! We collaborated with the super talented producer and writer Ryan Louder from the UK on this song, we love what he brought to the table. We love the electronic, ethereal vibe that it has going on.

When did you start writing music?
We have been writing for a few years together. On our debut album, we featured 2 originals and we have had the amazing fortune to perform them live with full orchestra all over the world! We are excited that this next album will feature all original music.

Really liked the video. Share with us the concept behind it.
Our next album WINTER LEGENDS is a concept album that tells a story of a fusion of the Danish folklore character The Snow Queen and Russian folklore’s The Snow Maiden; so this song is a part of the story and helps to introduce the characters. As for the video, which was edited and created by our ViVA Trio member, Katya Tchoubar, she aimed to bring the winter vibe, which is central to the story of the album and you will see that Anna (The Snow Maiden) and Katya (The Snow Queen) are always seen in ice and snow. Whereas Erin’s character (an explorer) is always featured by the mountains or the sea. The animals were an important element to bring the fantasy to life and represent each character’s persona.



Who are your musical icons?
We each have our personal faves but all agree that our fellow Canadian singer Celine Dion is at the top of the list. We also love Sting, Adele, Sia and have our own personal faves from every genre spanning opera to pop.

What was the first album you purchased?
Katya: Abba’s Greatest Hits
Anna: Madonna’s True Blue
Erin: TLC’s Crazy, Sexy, Cool

Which artists are you listening to right now?

What does the rest of 2021 hold for you?
