Nicholas Antonucci, the mastermind behind rock act The Shadow Self, is onto something—something big. His worldly/middle eastern style and aesthetic in music is captivating to say the least. Modern Frequency is premiering his latest, the epic rock opus “ENRAPTURED”, which details his experience with Catholicism and faith as he belts out “You’re not a lover/not an idol/treading water to just keep up the cycle”.
His music reminds me of the Canadian rock outfit The Tea Party, as Antonucci admits that they were a profound influence on him. We talked about his influences, the instruments he uses, and how the 90s alt rock scene made an impact on him. Check out the interview below along with the premiere of “ENRAPTURED” below.
