Church of Trees
Fri Jul 12, 2024
Cashbox Canada

Former Spoons and Honeymoon Suite keyboardist, Rob Preuss has whipped up a sizzling summer banger for Canadian synth band, Church of Trees!

It's Over (ft Heather Brazeau) mixes a touch of British New Romantic with a hint of 80's Spoons, all deftly wrapped in ABC-style production.

Off their latest album release, Transience, It's Over may have listeners thinking it's another 'bad relationship' song but, in fact, it's a comment on the state of the world.

"I was interested in penning something that sounded like one thing but is, in fact, about something completely different" says CoT songwriter, Bernard Frazer.

"But there's no one left to say goodbye
no one, cause it's over, yes it's over
There's no time to hide
No time for lovers
Because it's over, it's over"

Beautifully sung by Church of Trees' powerhouse vocalist Heather Brazeau (Pet Sematary, Where Is Love), "It's Over" pulsates with a high-powered beat as Rob Preuss' patented pianos and synths cut through like diamonds.

The It's Over single officially drops Friday July 12 on most streaming services.

ABOUT ROB PREUSS
Originally from Ontario, Canada, Rob joined Canada's best known synth band, The Spoons, (at age 15!), helping them garner several hit singles, including Romantic Traffic and Nova Heart. He later signed on with rock band Honeymoon Suite and toured across Canada, the USA, Europe, and Asia. His love of musical theatre led him to play piano and keyboards for several high profile shows, including Phantom Of The Opera, Beauty And The Beast, and Miss Saigon, which eventually took him to Broadway and the position of Musical Director for Mamma Mia.

Rob was also piano coach to the actor Rami Malek, for his Academy Award-winning role as Freddie Mercury in the film Bohemian Rhapsody.
