Vienna Vienna is always waiting for his next chance to take the stage, to electrify the audience with glimmer rock: performance is an essential part of the equation. The multi-instrumentalist sees performing as “a chance at vulnerability without all the pressure.” His debut EP Wonderland reflects his journey with queerness and self-acceptance, creating a space of shared catharsis at his shows. Growing up anxious and conflicted about his identity, Vienna Vienna found solace in music, which evolved from a coping tool into a means of self-expression and self-love. Now signed to PULSE Records and co-released by Pete Wentz’s label DCD2, Wonderland blends ‘00s pop-punk, queer pop, and soft-rock ballads, celebrating strangeness and authenticity.
