Velvet Vision is the new synth pop project from Betty Taylor; a singer from Santa Fe, New Mexico. With the project’s first single Springtime Buzz timely released on the 11th March, Betty’s project is flowery and uplifting; sweet but not twee and with a hint of tongue in cheek, depressing honesty.

Betty Taylor is a new artist releasing music under the moniker of Velvet Vision. Hailing from Santa Fe, New Mexico, she began working on this project during pandemic. This week she released her debut single, Springtime Buzz, which she tracked in her bedroom studio. Her sound is a fun mix of downtempo dream pop and analogue electro pop tones, with lush vocal harmonies.
Explaining the song, Betty shares that Springtime Buzz is about the “irrational nature of emotions… the kind of emotions that can make you sing ‘you’re just another boy who made me cry’ and ‘there was something in your eyes” in the same line.'”

It depends on where you live, but here in New York City, “Springtime Buzz” takes on more intensity every day. Add a romantic fling, and you have the perfect material for an upbeat pop song. Santa Fe-based musician Betty Taylor aka Velvet Vision took the cue and created a bright, glittering synth-pop tune that gets you in the mood, with or without romance. While being a musician for a long time, Betty took on electronic music production just a year ago and taught herself the necessary skills.
