GRAMMY-nominated group Trivium have teamed with the legendary Portuguese artist Toy to release a reimagined version of his song "Coração Não Tem Idade (Vou Beijar)." Available now on all streaming platforms, the recording finds Trivium and Toy joining forces to deliver a heavy a take on the classic track sung entirely in Portuguese.
Trivium and Toy first connected after Trivium vocalist/guitarist Matt Heafyshared a cover of "Coração Não Tem Idade (Vou Beijar)" on his Twitch channel back in 2018. A year later, Toy joined Trivium on stage in Portugal at VOA Festival 2019 for a performance of Trivium's "Until The World Goes Cold." A bond was cemented, and discussions of a collaboration began to build. "The collaboration between Toy and Trivium has been nothing but unexpected and incredible - every step of the way," says Heafy. "From its beginning, starting from a Twitch raid into my channel; into me doing a cover that would soon find itself on Portuguese national radio and national news; into a live duo that created madness not unlike a riot at a festival; then finally into a true, full band cover with a cameo by Toy himself."
Trivium will finish out 2019 with a series of festival performances in Australia, which will include stops in Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane, as well as a headline performance in Canberra [full itinerary below]. Tickets for all dates are on sale now. For more information visit www.trivium.org.
