Michigan’s Own Upon Wings Unveils New Song ‘You Are My Weapon’ [Video]

Upon Wings is a great Lansing-based band, and has a new EP and single out for us all to enjoy. Anne Autumn Erickson is a classically-trained vocalist, and frontwoman for the band, and if you like bands like Nightwish, The Gathering, Epica, and other gothic bands, you'll really enjoy Upon Wings!

Upon Wings released its new single, "You Are My Weapon," earlier this month from the EP Afterlife.

They told Metal Hammer:

(It's) about having faith that someone you lost is still with you, giving you strength in this world.You Are My Weapon is really a victorious song. It’s about love and hope and healing, and I think it’s something everyone has experienced. This song really changed over time, and I like the fact it had a mind of its own."

Upon Wings' latest single, "You Are My Weapon," features vocals from Anne Autumn Erickson, guitars by Kevin Jardine and drums by Peter Tzaferis. The song is produced by Kevin Jardine and Glenn Brown, mixed by Corey Lowery and mastered by Glenn Brown (Kid Rock's engineer).
