With a sunny disposition and sleek execution, the new single *[Slot Machine](https://onthemappr.us14.list-manage.com/track/click?u=866374f77c3243c8b4c6c2e65&id=415a6e0890&e=220f1bd8bb)* out today from singer-songwriter *Veronica Fusaro* is an addictive sonic ode to real-world modern addictions; an effusive blend of alt pop and modern rock that also signals a brand new creative chapter for the talented Swiss-born artist.

Opening with a jangly swagger, à la other confectionary earworms like *Portugal. The Man.*’s *Feel It Still*, *Slot Machine* quickly takes shape as a confident and enigmatic ode to digital addiction. Dominantly channelling the likes of *Vasco Rossi*, *Black Pumas*, *Alabama Shakes* and *Avril Lavigne*, *Veronica Fusaro*’s masterful vocals perfectly thread the underlying musical elements, emerging with an infectious yet meaningful creation that also acts as a delectable entreè to her, as yet unnamed, upcoming second album*. “I took it back to my roots with this one,”Fusaro* shares. *“I was listening to a lot of the rock music that I grew up with when I wrote this song. The song is about the little ‘magic box’ we all carry with us – our phones – and the constant stream of entertainment and information they provide. I realized how dangerously addictive they can be, almost like a slot machine, constantly pulling us in. It tells us what to think, what to wear, what to watch, how to look etc… The song is a reflection on that relationship and how even with all that entertainment, all that content I do not feel content at all. Therefore the: oh no, help me! Why do I feel so down?“.*

An artist passionately honest and curious, with unwavering focus on lyricism and the power that music can impart, *Veronica Fusaro *amassed an international team to bring *Slot Machine* to life, with some fitting connections to her own heritage, born to a Swiss mother and an Italian father. *“I wrote the song myself and sent a demo to Kim Wennerstrøm, a Swedish songwriter and producer based in Berlin, who handled the production and mixing,”* explains *Fusaro*. *“The mastering was done by Jonas W. Karlsson from Finland.”*

Armed with powerful vocals, an inbuilt gift for storytelling and hues of alternative pop, soul, rock and more, *Veronica Fusaro *recently enamoured with her 2023 debut full length *All the Colours of the Sky*. Reaching #5 on Swiss charts, *All the Colours of the Sky* also come amongst *Fusaro* ticking off over 500 live performances, including opening for *Dire Straits* legend *Mark Knopfler*, performing on the iconic stages of Glastonbury Festival, at the Montreaux Jazz Festival, and closing out 2023 with a sold out appearance in Zurich. With a formidable live presence, *Fusaro* seamlessly balances joy with powerful undertones in her incredible sonic output; and her driving passion stems from finding a love for music at an early age as well as a gift for fusing her inspiration into her music. *“Great music makes me tick, but really it could be anything*,” *Fusaro* reveals. *“A conversation I have with a stranger or a good friend, something I see on TV, something I read, something I observe… anything really. And I somehow feel the need to transform this inspiration into words and music. I’m not the best talker, so I guess music is the way I get to communicate and feel safe and good about what I feel. And I got into music as a little kid, I just always enjoyed singing, eventually started playing guitar and writing songs in 4th/5th grade and well… here I am today!”.*

With plans set for 2025 to release a follow up to her debut 2023 album, *All the Colours of the Sky*, *Fusaro*’s first step into this brand new era is vividly heralded by *Slot Machine*; and there is definitely plenty of magic set to come from *Veronica Fusaro* going into 2025. “*It feels strange to be releasing this new single, but in a very exciting way,” Fusaro *concludes.* “I’m definitely a bit nervous since it’s been a while since I’ve released new music, but I’m also really proud of Slot Machine. It’s the first chapter of a project that I’m incredibly passionate about. I really can’t wait for everyone to hear it.”*

*Slot Machine *is out today.
