Song of the Week: High Priestess ::: Active Child

I heard "High Priestess" for the first time last week and was blown away by the fusion of canonical music with electro-pop.  The song is by Active Child (a.k.a Pat Grossi) a 28 year-old choir-trained singer operating out of Los Angeles.  His work blends layers of soaring falsetto, beautiful harp runs, and a wide variety of synths, sounds, and vocal effects, to create unusual and emotive pop tracks.  You can definitely hear the choir influences on this track, not to mention a distinct New Wave feel reminiscent of Tears for Fears.  Check out the first single from his debut album, You Are All I See, as well as fantastic live version of the song.
