Despite the impressive streaming numbers, many independent artists put up across platforms that doesn’t always translate to a hefty payout. For a sense of financial security, musicians must look elsewhere—including syncs.
Electronic duo DRAMA (producer Na’el Shehade and vocalist/songwriter Via Rosa) just landed one major sync. The pair’s 2021 track “Dark Rain” was featured in Justin Baldoni-directed film co-starring Blake Lively, It Ends With Us.
DRAMA took to their official Instagram page to pen a message of gratitude. “It is an honor to have our song ‘Dark Rain’ featured in such a powerful film,” they wrote. “One of our dreams has always been to score movies, so hearing our song in this context on the big screen was beyond exciting. It struck our heartstrings in ways neither of us were prepared for! Be sure to check out the movie in theaters, but we warn you… bring your tissues.”
