Lead by vocalist and front-woman Taylor McAuliffe 'Operator' is an ode to safe spaces in music venues and the importance of calling out toxic behaviour that can sometimes go unchecked. Co-written by Fletcher Matthews (Clews, The Buoys, and Dear Seattle) 'Operator' is just one of the multiple releases that DROVES have in store for 2021 and a call out from their EP that will be out on the 15th of October.
“This song to me was written as a call to be confident, be loud and be heard. It’s a way to put aside the everlasting negative impacts some situations and experiences have for a few minutes to celebrate, dance, and let go instead.” Taylor elaborates, “We’ve always made it imperative that our shows are a safe space for everyone to be comfortable in. It’s a value that we, as a band, hold very closely. We will always stand in solidarity with anyone who has been impacted by harassment or abuse and the constant fear that comes with it. There’s been enough silence around subjects that make people uncomfortable, and this is our chance to use our platform to voice this.”
