SIERRA PILOT - “HORIZONS”

"Horizons," the latest single by Canadian rock band Sierra Pilot, is a hard-hitting anthem that delves deep into the emotional journey of overcoming addiction and finding renewed purpose. The single serves as a testament to lead vocalist Taylor Leith’s personal struggles and ultimate triumph in his battle for sobriety.

With a powerful blend of driving guitar riffs, pounding rhythms, and raw, emotive lyrics, "Horizons" captures the intense turbulence of inner conflict, offering listeners a gripping sonic journey from darkness to clarity. Leith’s vocals soar above the stormy instrumentation, delivering lines like “There’s something inside of me, gonna cut it right out of me”—a declaration of his relentless pursuit to purge negative influences and find freedom. As the song progresses, the chorus “Hate standing in one place, wanting more, I’m chasing horizons” reinforces the anthem's central theme of pushing past limitations and seeking growth, no matter the odds.

"Horizons" is more than a personal story; it’s an anthem of resilience for anyone fighting to reclaim control of their life. Leith reflects, “The song was born out of my own battle with addiction, but it has grown into something much larger. It’s about the fight to move forward and not letting your struggles define you.” The track's relentless energy serves as both a cathartic release and an empowering message for anyone facing their own personal battles.

Sierra Pilot closed out 2024 with their first major U.S. tour as direct support for rock heavyweights Pop Evil and Bad Wolves on the “Animal Instincts” tour. The 21-date tour gave the band a chance to introduce their explosive sound to a broader audience.

“We did a short US/ Canada tour with Pop Evil in April 2024 and were absolutely blown away when they asked us to join them on this tour with Bad Wolves and ONI” explained Leith. “The tour surpassed all of our expectations. Every audience showed up ready to bring it and showed us so much love. We saw people singing along to our songs, and lots came to meet us after the show. Our first US tour was an overwhelming success and we can’t wait to come back and do it all over again."
