Early on, I committed to really being my own person outside of my fathers legacy” says Electra. 'We all have that little rebellious streak about us. She has received accolades from tastemakers like SPIN Magazine, PopCrush, Loudwire, Rolling Stone, Idobi Radio and Consequence of Sound while building a rabid following on TikTok and Instagram.

Her 2021 releases “Evergreen” and “Society Talk” along with a deconstructed cover of Garbage classic “I Think I’m Paranoid” were well received by critics and fans alike, paving the way for a full length release in 2022. Her notoriety as a singer grew with a powerful performance at the 2016 CMA Music Festival and continued to blossom in the years following as she garnered massive attention for viral renditions of Megadeth songs “A Tout le Monde'' and “I Thought I Knew It All”.Įlectra has begun to hone in on a unique identity as a musician, eschewing genre expectations and pursuing a sharp edged exploration of modern pop in lieu of sticking to her metal and country beginnings. The song also includes a cameo by country guitar great Steve Wariner, whom Mustaine met when he was recording a steel-guitar part for her father’s band.Electra Mustaine has always been an artist and entertainer that commands attention - not just from the weight of her lineage but by effusing knowledge of self by unapologetically embracing who she is.Įlectra got her start at an early age as a co-host on Animal Planet’s show Faithful Friends and soon began traveling the country performing in musical theater troupes and at small festivals.

“And I wanted to introduce myself to the country world with something that showed my personality.” Times right now are really crazy, with all the things going on in the world, and people need to feel good,” says Mustaine. To the 18-year-old vocalist, “ it don’t get much better than this / life is good.“ Written by Mustaine with Nathan Chapman and Blair Daly, “Life Is Good” is a slice of optimistic contemporary country, with Mustaine singing about sunshine, blue skies, Ray-Bans and summer smiles.

After delivering an unexpected but satisfying cover of “I Thought I Knew It All,” originally recorded by thrash-metal kings Megadeth, Electra Mustaine announces herself as pop-country singer with the new song “Life Is Good.” Mustaine, the daughter of Megadeth founder Dave Mustaine, filmed a lyric video for the single, premiering on Rolling Stone Country today.
