### **Salt Lake City Singer-Songwriter/Multi-Instrumentalist/Social-Activist TALIA KEYS Releases Sultry and Scorching Cover of Eurythmics’ “Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of These)”**

**[Stream The Single Here](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=22032253.57748.1.7601472767823767b7f8b364275f64f7)**

With an infectious dose of sultry and a scorching serenade, Salt Lake City-based**
Talia Keys** unleashes a fresh new sound with this scintillating take on a timeless
chestnut.

[[

The woozily intoxicating **“Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of These)”** finds the singer-
songwriter/multi-instrumentalist/social-activist pivoting to a different lane than
some fans may be familiar with; tapping into **Eurhythmics’** eternally-ethereal
vibe while still mutating the soundscapes with futuristic synths, industrial guitar
tones, shuffle on the snare and assertive kick drum thump. At once nihilist and 
inspirational, the track offers observations of the quest for inner fulfillment,
and muses on the desires that motivate us all.

“Sweet Dreams” transcends the label “classic”; the song has long levitated in a 
rarified air of pop music royalty. Iconic Eurythmics vocalist **Annie Lennox’s**
pioneering androgynous style no doubt a North Star for Talia in more ways than one,
and within Keys’ stacked, stirring vocal harmonies lies an unspoken passing of the
torch at play. Talia’s performance embodies the vulnerability inherent in the original
number, yet her trademark bluesy verve swiftly bubbles to the surface, injecting
a dash of authentic defiance.

She was ably-assisted on this single by Ryan Conger, the first of a trifecta of 
crucial covers on the way from Keys.” -B. Getz
