Vineyard Chicks create emotional triumph on “Power in the Pain”
With “Power in the Pain,” Vineyard Chicks deliver their most profound and emotionally resonant release to date, a stirring step forward from a trio already known for their charismatic live shows and uncanny musical chemistry. Released on August 29th, 2025, the track reveals a depth and artistic maturity that expands far beyond their classic rock and pop-leaning covers, proving that these Southwest Michigan sisters are evolving into powerful storytellers in their own right.
Clocking in at four minutes and eight seconds, “Power in the Pain” unfolds as a thoughtful, restrained rock song that’s unafraid to sit in stillness before rising into something cathartic. It’s a track built around emotional honesty, with the band channeling the weight of depression and the slow crawl toward resilience. The narrative is raw but purposeful, never bleak for bleakness’ sake, but instead pushing toward something triumphant.
Recorded at Jack A Gregory Studios in Paw Paw, MI, the production brings a lush but grounded sound. Heart-wrenching piano lines act as the emotional anchor, establishing the song’s contemplative core. From there, thick guitar and bass riffs surge through with controlled momentum, and the drumming adds just the right amount of force without overwhelming the vulnerability at the center.
The true star, though, is the vocal performance. Kayla, Trie, and Bunkie blend their voices with the kind of seamless harmony only siblings can conjure, creating a warmth and intimacy that makes every lyric feel lived-in. Their delivery captures both fragility and strength, walking that delicate line between sorrow and the determination to step back into the light. The sisters’ harmonies elevate the storytelling, transforming the track from a personal reflection into something universal.
Vineyard Chicks aren’t interested in theatrics or over-polished sentiment, rather they let the emotion breathe, giving listeners room to feel every moment. The instrumentation is cool and subtly textured; the vocals glow with earnest conviction; the entire track radiates a quiet but undeniable power.
For a band that burst onto the scene in 2023 with vibrant covers and youthful verve, “Power in the Pain” marks a bold artistic milestone. It’s heartfelt, beautifully constructed, and brimming with authenticity. They’ve got something incredibly special here that’s worth listening to!
