Love of the written word and a desire to tell powerful stories is at at the core of Sam's work as an artist. As a teenager he wrote plays, volumes of poetry, short stories and composed his first songs sat at the out of tune upright piano his mum used to play. Music, and the discovery of new artists shaped his free time as an adolescent, and every weekend he spent any and all of his pocket money, and hours of his time listening to and buying records in the 'Staff picks' section at HMV. Creativity continued to be a refuge for Sam, a catharsis, and eventually upon moving to the capital from a small rural town in south west England he released his own music into the world with the support of a small independent label in 2013. Sam thrust himself into songwriting, collaborating, experimenting sonically and touring. He eventually decided the bureaucracy of the label was limiting his own creative visions so broke away and began self funded his own work and studio time. Notable live dates included a cross-country UK tour, 14 dates with friend and fellow songwriter Anna Pancald, his first festival spot in Somerset at 'Somersualt' and on the main stage at Bristol Summer ball. His self funded debut, an EP of 5 original songs all written and co-produced by Sam was entitled 'Architect' and after a rigorous approach on social media to his peers the news spread within and beyond his social circle to help the EP reach the top 15 in the UK singer songwriter iTunes Charts. From 2015 til 2019, Sam released 10 singles, 3 official music videos, played live in LA and NYC with Sofar sounds and at the Rockwood Music Hall and was featured in Mahogany sessions much coveted 'Covers' project with his live acoustic rendition of 'Without Me' His first real breakout song in terms of streams, 'Interlude', was a pure piano composition, and it began doing the rounds on the classical, neo-classical, office instrumental and study playlists.

Yodel Dodel Boogie Man, how did this come together? Well me Guy Chambers (Songwriter and Producer for Robbie Williams) Oliver Hoadley and Richard Flack Producer for Florence and the machine, Robbie Williams and many more have been messing around in Sleeper Sounds Studios, London thinking about what music to produce and in which direction to go. And Guy Chambers said, like, well I always wanted to make a yodel song and I said OK! Well sometimes when you are a producer and when you are composer and you want to do something but you don't have the budget for doing it well you have the budget but you just not wasting your own money and doing it and you won't find a client that will pay for it so that was the point. I wanted to make something crazy and well and I was crazy enough to fund it we then got one of the top UK comedians, Steve Furst in for his creative lyrics and that's how we produced this song Yodel Dodel. It's about actually well I wanted to bitch about Austria for many, many reasons because it's a lovely country as we all know but Guy said you shouldn’t criticize an entire country it better to criticize yourself because you're not perfect at all and it's way better to say you are the stupid boogie woogie player then speaking about Vienna or Austria or the justice system but whatever they were messing around with you whatever they did to you to for a reason no? It didn't come from out nowhere it was not a surprise because you've been looking for that and went out for it so make it about yourself and take it that way and this is how yodel Dodel started in the first place. Then we got some amazing crazy brass bands and well, it ended up being a mix of country folk, schlager music, I got no clue how to categorise it. It's funny mix up of many things and then we got the yodeller in, we have crazy crazy funky parts in it, I love it, Jazzy, how would you call the? I don’t know. So this is Yodel Dodel.

In an absorbing follow-up to Soul Song, his recent collaboration with guitar great Lionel Loueke (“a scintillating and sun-struck combination of ringing, gentle jazz and percussive African highlife that can only make you smile” — freq.org.uk), bassist and composer Yosef Gutman Levitt of Jerusalem is back with a new and invigorating release: The World and Its People, available from Levitt’s recently formed Soul Song imprint. Leading a drum-less, chamber-jazz-newgrass foursome influenced in part by The Goat Rodeo Sessions (with Chris Thile, Yo-Yo Ma, Edgar Meyer and Stuart Duncan), Levitt draws from deep within his soul on a collection of beautiful melodies, in deeply felt renderings from all involved. The tracks are Levitt originals cowritten and arranged by producer Gilad Ronen, with sterling contributions from Levitt’s close musical associates Tal Yahalom on nylon- and steel-string acoustic guitars, Omri Mor on piano and Yoed Nir on cello. Yahalom and Levitt have made two captivating duo albums, Tsuf Harim and Tal Yasis; Mor released his own Soul Song title earlier in 2023 called Melodies of Light and appeared with Levitt on the 2022 trio release Upside Down Mountain. “Everybody worked so hard in bringing creative ideas to this session,” Levit recalls of The World and Its People. “The music is very much inspired by our prior interactions—I feel excited about taking our conversation into different styles and opportunities to connect and communicate.” The album was mixed by Richard King, whose Grammy-winning work on The Goat Rodeo Sessions has served as an inspiration to Levitt and his colleagues. “The musical color that those musicians bring to the world is something pure and delicate and honest and lovely and luscious and warm,” Levitt remarks of Goat Rodeo. “These are the qualities I wanted to surround myself with: creating a classical crossover, dipping into country, using tools of the language to bring a light, bouncy, folky aspect to the music that I typically play, which is improvised jazz.” A religiously observant Jew, Levitt has endowed all his music with a sense of spiritual searching and depth, whether he is interpreting Hasidic nigunim on such releases as Ashreinu and Chabad Al Hazman or exploring original music with a jazz trio on Upside Down Mountain. On The World and Its People he focuses again on originals, animated by truths gleaned from Hasidic teachings. “All of my albums begin with a notion of spiritual development, a connection to God and those around me, and how to translate the various things that I’m working on, internally and externally, into melody and music.” He explains the album title as follows: “When we make a space for the world, and we make a space for its people, we infuse it with light and we make an impact—not just socially, but through being honest and open, doing what we’re meant to be doing.” As on previous releases, Levitt imbues The World and Its People with the sound of upright bass as well as his unique five-string acoustic bass guitar (built by Harvey Citron, Steve Swallow’s luthier), on which he’s developed a signature voice: a warm, singing, bell-like high-register tone with a focus on simple, direct, expressive melodies. The solos and unison passages on the two advance singles, “Awakening” and the title track, cut through the ensemble with a singing legato that is emotionally rich, intense yet delicate. “It’s very precious music,” Levitt says. “It’s very alive when I listen to it—I feel a magical sense of life and humanity and relationships, and I hear the depth and excitement of the other players in the room.” musicalnews.com writes…..But how beautiful is “The World and Its People”, the new album by Yosef Gutman Levitt. The album consists of 11 tracks that draw inspiration from “The Goat Rodeo Sessions”. The work was mixed by Richard King, who won a Grammy for his work on Goat Rodeo. “The World and Its People” is instrumental and brings within itself very different colors, from jazz to country to folk. A reflective sound in which the piano and the vibration of the acoustic guitar take us to a distant world.

“Feels familiar, Sounds new” Loud, energetic and know for a wild, emotionally resonant live show. East LA rock quartet Lone Kodiak makes a spicy cocktail using the modern classic ingredients they grew up on. While the sharp listener may hear traces of The Cure, Hum, The Smashing Pumpkins or Deftones, the band made the most of the pandemic by carving out a sound uniquely and mistakably their own by dialing in tones and challenging their own routine songwriting habits. Regulars on the east side circuit at venues like Bootleg Theater (RIP), The Echo, Moroccan Lounge and having shared the stage with local legends like The Marias, Night Talks and The Dumes. Parker (vocals, guitar), Alden (bass), Josh (drums) and newest addition Ben (guitar) are scene veterans on the verge of breakthrough with their forthcoming debut album “ Inside Voices”. Produced by Kyle Mangels and recorded at Big Bad Sound the record will be their first LP launching in July with their lead single “The Corner Booth. (Feat. Hunter Leigh Allen of Chase Petra)”. “Committed to the sound”, Lone Kodiak’s top priority is to give their belabored debut its best chance of success and support it with as many live performances as possible in 2024.

The QuestionThis is the darkest song that I have ever written, but it's unfortunately about something very real, and I felt like it needed a voice. The characters in the song/video were inspired by actual events local to me. Teen bullying, substance abuse, suicide, etc.. are all avoidable circumstances and no one should ever have to experience getting the news that their child has been taken from them. For any reason. Period. I wanted to also give voice to the taboo theological questions that surround these events. Sometimes the tiniest forms of healing can come through just asking the honest questions to the divine. The freedom to ask "the whys" often get suppressed through bad theology and replaced with even worse cliches. There are things that will always remain a mystery on this side of eternity, but the promise of Jesus being present through our suffering still holds true. If you are reading these words and have gone through something similar, or are going through it now, my heart breaks with you. I hope that you can find some form of comfort in these words. I wrote this song with you in mind. It's okay to not be okay. It's okay to be angry. It's okay to ask God "WHY"!?!

In the eclectic landscape of contemporary music, where artists often tread the line between innovation and tradition, Bit3R [Biter] emerges as a beacon of authenticity and artistic depth. The brainchild of Michigan's own Cameron Navetta, Bit3R isn't just another project on the music scene; it's a profound exploration of personal trauma, societal norms, and the very fabric of human emotion, all set against a backdrop of genre-blending soundscapes that defy easy categorization. Navetta, with his rich background in songwriting, producing, and engineering, has cultivated a musical persona that resonates deeply with listeners. His work, particularly through standout tracks like "Boy Made Of Glass" and "Party In The U.S. Of A.," showcases a unique blend of yacht rock, disco, retro pop, and indie influences, underscored by funk-infused bass lines, rhythmic percussion, and grand orchestral arrangements reminiscent of '70s disco and Motown. What sets Bit3R apart, however, is not just the infectious melodies or the lush, vibrant arrangements. It's the raw, unfiltered emotional honesty that Navetta brings to his music. "Boy Made Of Glass" dances on the edge of vulnerability, wrapping heavy-hearted lyrics in upbeat, dancey tunes, creating a compelling dichotomy that captures the listener's imagination. Meanwhile, "Party In The U.S. Of A." offers a darker, more introspective look at the American dream, juxtaposing anthemic grandiosity with a narrative of disillusionment and search for purpose. Navetta's willingness to delve into his personal struggles, including his diagnosis with Dissociative Identity Disorder, adds a layer of authenticity and advocacy to his art. This personal touch not only enriches the music but also fosters a deeper connection with his audience, turning Bit3R's songs into a shared space for reflection, understanding, and solace. Lyrically, Bit3R navigates the complexities of the human condition with a deft hand, weaving stories that are at once deeply personal and universally relatable. The intricate narratives, combined with Navetta's understated yet evocative vocal delivery, create a musical experience that is as thought-provoking as it is enjoyable. In an era where music often leans heavily on production values and gimmicks, Bit3R stands out for its focus on substance and message. Navetta's approach to songwriting and composition reflects a meticulous attention to detail and a profound understanding of music's power to convey emotion, tell stories, and provoke thought. For fans and critics alike, Bit3R represents a refreshing departure from the norm. Navetta's commitment to exploring challenging themes through a diverse musical palette has not only carved out a unique niche for Bit3R but also positioned him as a voice of his generation, unafraid to tackle the nuances of mental health, identity, and the search for meaning in a complex world. As Bit3R continues to evolve, Navetta's journey is one to watch. With each new release, he pushes the boundaries of genre and narrative, inviting listeners to embark on a journey of discovery and introspection. In a music industry often saturated with sameness, Bit3R shines as a project of genuine innovation, emotional depth, and artistic integrity, proving once again that music's true power lies in its ability to connect, challenge, and inspire.

Who sounds American, sings folk songs about coming out, love, society, and family, is female, and reminds you of great voices like Joni Mitchell or Dolly Parton? Certainly not a German artist! But what if she is? What if there's a scene that has already arrived everywhere but is just awakening in Germany? And what if this scene has already found its voice? That's when we talk about KAH! KAH stands for independence, celebrates her love for music, and packages longing and freedom into melodies, feelings, and thoughts in sounds and messages, and views in songs that come from the soul and go to the heart, no matter from which perspective you look at them. KAH is much more than just a singer. She is a storyteller, an artist. Independence is central to KAH. As a singer-songwriter and music producer, she has retained creative control over her music. Her songs are marked by authenticity and personal experience. This is reflected in her lyrics and melodies, which tell stories from life and allow listeners to connect with their own experiences.

Janus 4-14 is an Indie Pop/Rock band from Mount Airy, NC. Janus 4-14 consist of Chad Barnard (songwriter, rhythm guitar, vocals), Shane Mauck (lead guitar, background vocals), and Brett Beardsley (drummer, background vocals). Formed in 2009, the band have released an EP and two albums, consisting of what Jack Rabid from Big Takeover Magazine refered to as "coffee 'n' uppers vigor" fusing both punk and new wave together. The band was never supposed to be a band. Songwriter Chad Barnard was so painfully shy that when he would perform his songs for friends, they would have to go into a room, close the door, and turn off the lights, while he would perform his songs with a breathy whisper of a voice. With some encouragement, he decided to get some friends together and perform one show, just to say that he did it. Fourteen years, an EP, and two albums later, Janus 4-14 are still at it. Through an unlikely collision of influences: 90s lo-fi indie rock (Chad), Hendrix and Zeppelin (Shane), and all things Rush (Brett), Janus 4-14 have come through with a sound that's hard to put in a tidy little box. Looking to expand their sound from their previous two full-lengths and wanting an old-school producer experience, Janus 4-14 sent producer John Agnello (Dinosaur Jr., The Hold Steady, Horsegirl) their 50-song backlog, sought his advice on arrangement and song structure, and got him to pick his favorites, to be released in a series of six-song EPs.

Crash The Net is a pop punk power trio from New Hampshire that formed in 2022, though truly their origins go a lot farther back. Seth (bass, vocals), Tim (guitar, vocals) and Carter (drums) are childhood friends who have been playing music together since their elementary school days. Through their teenage years they played covers of their favorite bands locally, as their original band Fatal Force. Now, over ten years later, they are still together now writing music influenced by a wide range of their favorite bands such as Green Day, Fall Out Boy, Four Year Strong, A Day to Remember, Foo Fighters, The Wonder Years, and more. The name Crash The Net stems from a hockey term, referring to when offensive players rush towards the opponents’ goal to deflect any rebound that comes off the goalie. This strategy is usually employed as a last ditch effort when there are only minutes left in the game. For Seth, Tim, and Carter, this band is a final effort to make their childhood dream of releasing their own music and touring the world a reality.

Leoné Murphy’s ‘Oh no I’m in love’ is a heart-on-sleeve anthem about falling for someone when you least expect it. The song captures the mix of excitement and fear that comes with love, especially if you’ve been hurt before. The track is playful and catchy with a steady bassy beat, and the lyrics are highly relatable. Leoné Murphy invites listeners to connect with the messy but beautiful journey of falling in love.

Born and raised in Leicester but now residing in London, Riya has fully launched her career in 2023 after silently developing for the past 5 years. With an unquenchable thirst for knowledge, she has graduated with a degree in songwriting and performance. Riya almost feels like she is from a different era being an old soul living in a technology driven and forever advancing world which has led her to embody an alternative pop sound and style with conventionally classic undertones. Her music will transport you to a variety of dimensions filled with mind and soul pleasing melodies, emotion in its rawest form and lyricism brimming with heart felt messages. Sonically speaking, Riya mines her material from the past and refines it in the present to create a sound that will ultimately shape her future.

My effort this time is also a (freestyle). I call this one 3 things. I have several more, stay tuned. As in the past post I really appreciate all of the shares and the feedback both glows and grows. Writing a rhyme and freestyling a rhyme presents it's self totally different from an Artist perspective. Just thinking out loud. My goal with the freestyles is too perfect the flow as much as possible and the content so that the track and can be heard to as a freestyle song/rap and just not a lot of bostering on the MIC like some freestyle are. I tell stories, sometimes my own, but stories. Thanks Groovers, I appreciate all of you!

Never Met My Dog is an indie/bedroom pop song by Efro, it will be her 7th single release and it is inspired by the likes of Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits and Julia Jacklin. It talks about a relationship that never progressed and the love interest quite literally not meeting the singer's dog. However the singer is confiding to their dog about the other person, even though they don't think the dog will ever meet them. By the end, all hope is lost but at least the dog won't be crying about them since they never met, contrasting the singer's situation. The instrumental behind the story is simple, ever evolving by adding little elements and reaching its climax with the saxophone solo, only to break down at end and therefore achieving a sense of prosody.

No Thanks, Man is the complete work of Geraldine Espino - musical vagabond, modern beatnik & polite revolutionary. Her deep vocals cut through percussive melodies and unexpected instrumentation, as a world of influences coalesces into 3-4 minute singles. No Thanks, Man has released two other singles to date. The previous single “Away Already” was the featured song of the week on Pandora’s AMP: Fresh Cuts Radio from Sept 30, 2022 to Oct 7, 2022. Empty & Awake, the debut, full length album is coming out in the next few months. The songs on the album are about finding joy in light of suffering, hope in light of pain, and rebirth in light of destruction. About the Recording Artist... Geraldine Espino has always lived life to different rhythm. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA, her wanderlust would lead her around the world - from DC to NYC to Italy to Mexico to Argentina and so many places in between... She currently lives in Austin, TX. Espino was first introduced to Jack Kerouac in high school, which opened up her eyes to a different way of seeing the world. She longed to be a dharma bum, to roam from place to place, keeping everything sacred. While she strived on an intellectual level to understand these deep concepts rooted in zen buddhism, what struck her most was the authentic nature of the texts and the struggle of adopting eastern philosophy in the western world as one integrates it in the catholic faith. Over the years, Kerouac’s struggle was her struggle and she grew to understand the concepts of emptiness and awakedness. Kerouac served as a gateway to another way of explaining the events of the universe. From there, she expanded her world to include taoism, buddhism and stoicism, existing right alongside her catholic upbringing. These words are just words and some things are out of word reach. Every religion or philosophy has a language to describe the same world — all concepts are valid and exist intertwined with each other. So what is Espino now? It’s out of word reach … a little bit of this and a little bit of that because there is no one way to explain the world or one doctrine to follow. The idea of labeling oneself is more detrimental than helpful to the person self-identifying. There is no word to describe this — modern beatnik, at best. The concepts of the void and no-thing also rang true, featured often in Kerouac’s work. The void is the space all around us, quite literally. It is empty space that we are cutting through… but the catch of it all is that we are mostly empty space. So this world is not as solid as we think, it’s not as objective. What is seen, heard, tasted, smelled and felt requires an observer. We are observers. We create this world through the perceptions of the body and filtered through the mind. There is only a sky because I am looking at the sky. About Creating The Music... The music of No Thanks, Man was borne out of nothingness…of silence. There was no goal, there was just an internal musical compass that wandered up and down the keys until there was sound. From that sound became music and every layer revealed itself after the one before. It was like following a road map where you can only see the next leg in front of you… you don’t know where you’re going or how long it will take… Instruments were selected like colors on palette. Using virtual instruments allowed Espino to pick and choose from a 96 color crayon box instead of an 8 pack. Every song is a little bit different, but some common threads remain… pitched percussion, deep vocals and the form of popular music It’s difficult to categorize this music… it’s little bit of this and a little bit of that…just like Espino herself. How do you capture every sound that one person has ever heard? There are times for taking in sounds and times for putting them out. For decades Espino took in music and sound until one day the cup spilled over and there was so much music inside that it would come out every single morning. In the mornings, she would just play freely… only listening to the voice or melody that just seemed to flow one note after the other. In many ways, she believes that it is God speaking through her. That when she sits down she has no goals or ideas for songs to hash out. It’s just flowing. Where else could this music appear from? At nighttime, she would sing whatever came into her mind to fill the void. And there’d always be this moment in which the tune from the night would somehow fit with the music of the morning. That’s when the real work came in — so perhaps that’s why in the afternoons the real work happened… in the afternoons when the morning and night were edges of reality and the detailed compositional work would be free. What followed is an authentic musical expression that transcends classification. No genre, no gender, no race… No thanks, Man. About Marimba & Pitched Percussion: The work of No Thanks, Man is rooted in pitched percussion, highlighting the marimba in particular, and is heavily influenced by the many years spent working as a lead sound engineer at PASIC. Espino studied Music Theory and Composition at the University of Maryland, where she first fell in love with pitched percussion. She spent countless hours playing her roommate’s marimba and really opened up her ears to what the instrument could do. This passion was later re-ignited when she found herself working as a lead sound engineer at the Percussive Arts Society International Convention (PASIC). Espino had the pleasure of working with many percussion ensembles and international artists, introducing her to other world instruments as well. As Espino worked with hundreds of artists over the years at PASIC, she deepened her understanding of dynamics, overtones and spatial imaging. Taking these musical ideas back home, she then created a sound that is both true to popular music and true to pitched percussion. Instead of guitar and piano, expect to hear marimba, vibraphone, kalimba and other world percussion instruments. No Thanks, Man hopes to introduce the marimba to a mainstream audience by expanding the role of pitched percussion in popular music.

Pleasantville is a new band featuring Aaron David Gleason and Emma Freeman, Produced by Daniel Gleason (Grouplove). Moody, cinematic, joyful, bold. We hope you dig it. (NEW YORK, NY – February 2, 2024) Aaron David Gleason, a favorite among musical theatre fans has begun a new venture – founding the new rock outfit Pleasantville and debuting a new video single “Steel Eyed” for their brand-new album THESE EMBERS. Aaron David Gleason has been a rocker, a punk, and an edgy outlier in the New York music and theater scene for over 17 years. His songwriting is a thick thread connecting each moment to the next, and his voice a beacon of hope for rock music’s ongoing importance. Through his music, Aaron seeks for greater understanding not only of himself and his place in the world but the agency the listener can only ever uncover in the healing power of the arts. On THESE EMBERS, Aaron coos, wrestles and barks a set of nine new existential crisis’s set to song. Joined by singer, song writer, actor and model, Emma Freeman, the two create a moody, but pop sound backed by a hydra of folk tones. THESE EMBERS was born as a follow up to Aaron’s 54 Below show Hell and High Water back in 2021 which was directed by his mother, famed Tony-Award winning performer, Joanna Gleason. Hell and High Water chronicled Aaron’s deeply personal journey of dealing with pandemic-related stress and crisis. The show proved cathartic and inspired Aaron to rediscover his creative process and begin writing a slate of new songs.

Swerning MemoriesHey I'm MALU and looking for some support on my new Single "Swerning Memories" "In MALU's debut single, Swerning Memories sets in motion an emotive journey of electronic pop, future synth and ardor. Adorned with delicate nuances, emotionally intelligent songwriting and powerful dynamics that build, drop and breakdown at all the right moments. Equipt with pert drums and personified by softly rich and tender vocals that absorb you into the moments, engaging your inner feelings. Executed with tidy, full bodied production and futuristic sound design which gently contrasts the embedded organic guitar elements."

Nashville-based Indigo Zebras started their journey as a post hardcore band in 2016 with local shows being the stepping stone to a greater future. Brothers Justin Turner and Jacob Turner co-wrote and performed their self-titled EP released in October 2018 at various local venues. After some time to reflect on their first release and gain some momentum the band then put together their first LP titled, Surely We Will Fall released in November of 2021. With songs such as “Fixated” and “Only to Comply” the band took a more emotional approach to their writing style emphasized by melodic and dynamic influences from The Mars Volta and Circa Survive. This new refined sound would catch the attention and eager ears of avid listeners. With more opportunities presenting themselves for the band’s direction Justin and Jacob took some time to evaluate the future of the group and what it would take to reach further successes. After a partial hiatus and lineup change including the addition of Mikey Stevenhagen as lead vocalist and RJ Vail as their new drummer, Indigo was once again filled with motivation. After building their second-to-none chemistry, the four members would go on to play several shows and events performing their previously released music. During this process the band would then collaborate to write and release Only in Absolutes on December 29th, 2023.

Toronto Canada based musician/film composer/producer/engineer Jeff Vidov is well known in Toronto as a session musician/conductor/keyboardist Canadian born composer/pianist Jeff Vidov has started releasing new music singles from his upcoming 2cd rock/pop album in 2024, a mammoth project in the working for years. His 2 most recent singles are “Baby can u dig your man?” and “The timelessness of our love”, which were preceded by “A Little less love”, all recorded at his recording studio in Toronto with Canadian musicians. Jeff’s songs are 100% Canadian Can-con-MAPL, are Socan/BMI, and do not have explicit lyrics, and have been released for purchase/streaming at all music platforms, and each have a video on Jeff’s Youtube channel. All his songs also have an instrumental orchestra version available as well. Jeff Vidov first attracted attention by winning the SOCAN Composer’s Award for his first orchestral work “AWAKEN” in 1994 and received his BM as a scholarship student at the prestigious Eastman School of Music and his Masters degree at the Manhattan School of Music and had private lessons with Pulitzer Prize winning composers Christopher Rouse and Joseph Schwantner. Jeff is a well-known pianist/composer/choir conductor/session musician/church organist/musical theatre director/film-tv composer and teacher in Toronto and has had a 27 year career in the city in which he was born. “Baby can u dig your man” takes it’s title (but not it’s lyrics) from the song in Stephen King’s novel “The Stand”. “I found it intriguing that in the novel that the ‘made-up’ song in the book is the last ‘hit single’ before the world is wiped out by a virus. Of all the great songs in history this was the last big ‘hit’ on the charts, according to King’s fictional novel. So I came up with my own lyrics as an ‘ode’to the book and wrote an original upbeat pop/rock song” states Vidov.

The musical project known as The Ryan Express was originally created in 2006 following the dissolution of the prior grunge band, known as Wave on the Barrage. Initially, The Ryan Express started out as an acoustic singer-songwriter project. At this time, exploration went into sound engineering which resulted in the creation of the recording, mixing, and mastering studio known as Fountainworks Recordings. The studio, operated by Ryan Hubener, provided a creative environment for the production of the first album titled “Please Be Seated” which was released in 2008. Over the next 10 years, songwriting evolved and new compositions were self-produced culminating in the 2nd studio album titled “Let’s Not and Say We Did”. With this album, instrumentation was filled out to create a full band production. During this time, Fountainworks Recordings also experienced advances and upgrades in technology which boosted the production quality. January 2021, a close friend passed away under traumatic and unexpected circumstances. This fueled the creative writing process, and many new compositions came forth again from The Ryan Express. From 2021 – 2023 recording, mixing, and mastering took place to self-produce the album titled “Underground” which was released December 2023. This album performed solely by Ryan Hubener, reflects on the emotions and internal turmoil during this time. Music by The Ryan Express leans towards the raw and edgy sound of the 90’s alternative rock genre and could be described as genuine, authentic, powerful and melodic. The music is available on all major streaming platforms. You’re invited to listen, and enjoy this refreshing new music!

"drop in the bucket" is the first single off Tamar Berk's upcoming album tiny injuries, out August 18. "drop in the bucket" refers to the small grievances that can accumulate during a relationship over time. Over time, these tiny things can add up to a lot of resentment between two people in a relationship...little digs, insults, remarks, behaviors. When discussing the new single, Tamar Berk writes: "I wanted to release this song first because the album title is actually in the bridge, hinting at the album's theme. A professional ballroom dancer is featured in the video! After working with her for several months, I choreographed a dance that I thought would be interesting, fun, and a little bizarre. She (Ksenia Stavrica) would represent my female side, and I would represent my male side. Dreams actually inspired the idea! One morning, I awoke from a dream in which I was ballroom dancing and I thought, “Well, maybe that should be the first video! ”

Exploding onto the effervescent hard rock and metal scene, Marcus Ryan combines his inspirations from the golden ages of the genres with his own unique twists on instrumentation and storytelling. Inspired by legends such as Eddie Van Halen and Ozzy Osbourne, the artist prides himself in dark emotional, and melodic sounds that he has refined for years. With a keen emphasis on individualism and making each piece of music produced his own, Marcus Ryan ensures that his musical process is unique and true to himself in order to ensure the best possible listening experience for his audience. Hailing from San Antonio, Texas, Marcus Ryan was a curious child whose musical journey started when he was about 10 years old. At that point, he began to receive some rudimentary guitar instructions from his father. From the age of 14 onwards, he began to write his own original songs at which point he discovered the melodic dark expanses of heavy metal. During that time , he became utterly enamored with the genre and perpetually immersed in the likes of bands like Anthrax and Slayer. Later on in life , he traveled to Florida to assist with the aftermath of Hurricane Charlie .Witnessing the devastation , he became inspired to start writing and found a studio to begin recording his first album “Walk To The Light” Marcus Ryan’s inspirations are manifold. From blues to the glorious rock ballads of the 1980s, the artist draws upon a wide range of sounds from an even wider range of eras. Each song is heavily layered with each layer featuring a variety of keys, masterful electric guitar, and myriad percussion instruments. This layered nature of the artist’s music means that the listener will discover something new to focus upon during each subsequent listen. Accompanying these grand instrumentals is some deeply introspective lyricism. An excellent example of this is the song “Different Than You” which discusses notions such as being coerced into a state of mind as a consequence of bullying and then rising out of that mental state by defying the odds. Another instance is the song “I Believe” which examines the life within a broken home where you cannot rely on anyone and are cast into the world fending for yourself and the ones you love. An important element of Marcus Ryan’s music is that he only writes and produces music that he truly believes in. If he doesn’t feel a story to be genuine and heartfelt, he doesn’t chronicle it in his music. This ensures that each piece of music is authentic and truly resonates within the strings of his listeners’ hearts. Most importantly, his deliberate effort to be true to himself is what defines him. Marcus Ryan is currently focused on further refining his craft to the finest of edges and garnering a loyal audience. His acute attention to detail, an eclectic selection of instrumentation, and intensely insightful lyricism are sure to make waves in the contemporary metal and hard rock scene.

Settle for Sleep is the pen-name of Matt Kondoff, a Montreal-based singer/songwriter who started releasing singles in Spring of 2023. With a unique sonic quality that mixes fast melodic guitar-driven punk rock with elements of metalcore, Settle for Sleep draws influence from bands such as "A Day to Remember," "Senses Fail," and "The Wonder Years." Growing up in Columbus, Ohio during an explosion of new pop punk and metalcore bands from the area, Matt was immersed in the scene from a young age. Settle for Sleep’s lyrics often wrestle with one’s sense of home – reconciling the love of where you come from and the frustration of searching for more. With his upcoming single "Decades and Lightyears", Settle for Sleep is ready to connect with listeners and musicians who have experienced the same emotions and uncertainties. All of Settle for Sleep's material is written and recorded by Matt Kondoff.

After spending way too long in corporate America, I was one of the first to spearhead the ‘great resignation’ after watching the craziness of covid and the riots in Seattle area happening blocks from my house. I put my affairs in order in the spring of 2020 and re-prioritized my life. Since then I spend my time making fine guitars @celestialinstruments, writing / performing a mix of originals and covers for and traveling the Pacific Northwest and beyond with my partner, usually living in my tent out of one of my landrovers @adventuringdefenders. Recently I’ve started bringing my music with me on our travels and record live from cliffsides, tide pools and other interesting locations. In past lives I have recorded and performed with members of Golden Halos / Doll Factory, the singer from ‘murder weapons’, ‘iron butterfly’ (yes that iron butterfly)…

Songwriter in a lyrical life. Pouring it all out, surrendering to her cathexis. :) Currently hailing from Virginia, Jody has lived all over the US from coast to coast...and feels fortunate to have met some kindred spirits along the way that she now considers friends and family. Jody has been writing songs since she was 15 years old but recently with the sudden loss of her father has stepped into an entirely new realm of prolific writing and creativity. She infuses all her emotions and lessons learned from life and love into the fabric of her music. Her desire is that her songs will help her connect with others through these shared or similar experiences on a much more personal and deeper level. Jody is constantly writing, producing and recording new songs or collaborating with other musicians. She has recently settled into the pace of writing at least one new song each day!

Faith Groves, 19 years old and originally from Odessa, Texas. Faith comes from a very musical family where country music wasn’t just a genre, but a way of life. She received her first real guitar when she was nine years old, and started writing songs in secret at the age of thirteen. Growing up she always knew that being a country music singer would be a future career, although it took some amazing people really believing in her that gave Faith the courage to chase her dream. Faith now lives in Nashville absolutely living the dream. Her first single "Get the Hell Outta My Way" on November 3, 2023, her EP is set to release on December 1, 2023. Her music is honest, real, sometimes too real, but it’s country as hell with a little rock n roll. Her hope in this industry is to share the ups and downs from her life through her music and to help others celebrate and overcome theirs. For Faith, it’s music or nothing and she'd love nothing more than for y’all to follow along and support this journey.

Ten years in the US have deeply influenced my musical culture. This said, my inspiration sources are multiple, nourished by popular and classical music, from blues to pop rock, country, electro pop, jazz and classic. Four albums have been published so far that illustrate that eclectism. They are: ‘Eclectic’, ‘Perspective’ ‘Evolution’ and 'Escapade'.The two first albums are essentially instrumental. The last ones, ‘Evolution’ and Escapade', gathers songs written and interpreted some in French, some in English.

Formerly a 3-piece, The now 4-piece band is comprised of Jason the drummer, JC the bassist, Brennan the lead guitarist, and Elisha the lead singer and rhythm guitarist. Inspired by bands like , , and , also-ran aims to bring something new to the listener's ear while still paying homage to the groups that came before them. Not quite Pop-Punk and not quite Alt-Rock, also-ran uses chunky power chords and blazing guitar solos as building blocks to write music that simplifies complex emotions and encourages self-expression. With the release of their demo and their upcoming single Capital Hell, also-ran hopes you join them as they continue to create music and carve their path.

Lee Neitzel makes rootsy alt-rock music. This new project is his first solo venture, and finds him inspired a lot by time – the time he has spent pursuing a career away from music, and now, on his return to writing and recording, learning to live in the moment and not wait for any more time to pass to pursue his dreams. Born in Chicago but based in Charlotte for the past 15 years, Lee was the frontman of Transmission Fields (Spectra Records), who Shuffle Magazine called “a little gem for those who like their pop rock like R.E.M. or Built to Spill … a little angular, a little obscure and a lot of fun”. The band enjoyed a hectic year touring the east coast of the USA, and then Lee spent the next seven years learning to grow sunflowers and absorbing himself in the routine of a day job outside of music. An afternoon noodling on some Wilco songs found Lee with a pen in his hand hooked on a vocal melody, and a complete song followed in less than an hour. He knew right there it was time to get back in the game. Swapping pop-rock for a more rootsy sound influenced by artists like The Shins, Benjamin Gibbard and The Decemberists, his solo writing still finds a little of the edge from his Transmission Fields days, but with a more organic, mature feel. After so much time away from the scene he is working on squeezing as much music as possible into the humdrum of daily life, with his debut EP due out mid summer 2023.

"Holes," serves as a metaphor for the internal and external damage that I faced. It's a symbol of the voids and imperfections in my life during that period, represented by "holes in my sweater." The phrase "Try being me" invites listeners to step into my shoes and empathize with the emotional turmoil I endured.

Camilo EG will release his fourth single, “Victory March”, from his roaring debut EP, Spark and Gasoline, on Friday, March 12th, 2021. The song will cap off the artist’s year-long quarantine project that began with the late-summer single and video release of “Home”, which has drawn over 315,000 views on YouTube to date. “Victory March” was written by Camilo EG in celebration of creativity and the human imagination. Its composition was fueled by the pandemic’s limit on physical travel, and how individuals have had to increasingly rely on the power of imagination to stimulate the mind. The song was recorded in San Diego, California and produced by Kris Towne of Capricorn Studios. It features veteran musicians such as Gregg Montante on the electric guitar, Damon De La Paz on drums, and Kris Towne on bass. “My upcoming EP, Spark and Gasoline, will cover the emotions and experiences that I went through after returning to San Diego from a multi-month long Latin America trip in mid-2019 up to the first few days of quarantine in 2020. A spark is a momentary element that, once fused with fuel, causes a bright, beautiful, and sometimes deadly chain-reaction. As fast as it comes to fruition, it also fades into memory—something which, to me, represents our very existence.” -Camilo Born in Colombia and raised in Texas, Camilo EG explores themes of adventure, love, loss, and the human spirit as he blends elements of Heartland Rock, Folk, and Pop into a contemporary sound. He does this by exploring the “power of song” through evolving narratives that bring about burgeoning sonic landscapes. Camilo EG’s newest single release will also coincide with the premiere of a new video made by a yet to be announced director. With over half a million YouTube views to date, his channel has grown a significant international audience that includes the United States, Mexico, Argentina, and Colombia. On Friday, March 5, 2021, “Victory March” will be sure to add more fans to this expanding fanbase. Camilo EG’s previous three singles can be streamed through Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, YouTube, and as well as a whole slew of other prominent music outlets.

Nach dem Debütalbum “PYROLYSE” vom Herbst 2022 und 35 Shows in Deutschland und Österreich brennt AYMZ auf mehr… Über eineinhalb Jahre entwickelte sich das neue Musikprojekt rund um Frontperson AYMZ auf der Bühne und hinter den Kulissen zu einem gefestigten Live Act. Ob auf Festivals á la LIDO Sounds und dem Reeperbahnfestival, auf ausverkauften Shows mit YAENNIVER, CSD Paraden im gesamten deutschsprachigen Raum, beim Klimastreik oder in kleinen Clubs - die dort gesammelte Energie wurde zu den Songs der neuen EP komprimiert. Nicht umsonst trägt diese den Artistnamen, enthält sie doch kondensierte Emotionen und ehrliche Hooklines, die umso tiefer in das musikalische Flechtwerk von AYMZ eindringen lassen. Mit neu gefundenem Selbstvertrauen und dem Gefühl, zumindest vorläufig zu sich selbst gefunden zu haben, bestreitet AYMZ auf dem Tonträger fünf Dramen und begibt sich als Antagonist*in zum Publikum auf

Following the release of his debut EP A Second Glance in 2022 and a busy 15 months of live performances, Sydney troubadour Pete Campbell returns with 'Nest For You', the first single from his forthcoming second EP Parley, due out on November 24th. 'Nest For You' is the first taste of the next stage in the evolution of Pete Campbell as a solo artist. Prior to his debut EP, Pete had undertaken a musical sabbatical from the local scene, previously having played lead guitar with 90s/00s Sydney bands including Brave and Crazy and Maryanne Rex Band. Pete has co-written, collaborated and shared the stage with many. In a sense he's a musical journeyman but one who, up until fairly recently, hadn't told his own story. The new single finds Pete leaning into a beautifully swaying acoustic guitar and heartstring violin folk rock sound, as he sings about the universal theme of conflicting goals and opportunities in relationships. Even though it's a song that pre-dates his debut EP, it wasn't until recently that he found the right way to capture the song in the studio. It's a perfect example of how Pete's approach to his music has matured and his natural strengths of mood and melody have become increasingly focused and refined. Parley is defined as a 'conference between opposing sides in a dispute, especially a discussion of terms for an armistice' – a meaning that ties in symbiotically ties in with many of the themes Pete sings about the EP. "Many of the songs are conversational, some with a little conflict, he explains. "That seemed to tie-in strongly with the concept of parley and I've also always loved the word, in a language sense." Again working with producer and bassist Marc Scully (Studio 57 Recording), Pete utilised the talents of a number of Sydney musicians to realise his vision for the new EP, including the talented violinist Marcus Holden and James Swanson who returns to add his light, intuitive and spacious drumming. Opener 'Bottom Of The Lake' features haunting harmonica from Reuben Alexander as Pete sings of desperation and resignation. Jadey O'Regan provides some evocative tone and colour on piano and organ on 'Away', and Ben Thomas adds a distinct Appalachian banjo feel to the closing track. Pete describes Thomas's playing as "giving bones to 'My Door'. It's the real glue in that song!" Ellen Soffe's (Ellen and the Ooroos) voice can be heard right across the EP but it's 'Silence', a song about being perfectly different together and complementing each other, where she really shines. Her low register and unique airy vocal complements and contrasts with Pete's keening, searching singing style, their two voices mirroring the theme of the song in exquisite unison. Pete's debut EP of last year, A Second Glance, featured the singles 'Bring To The Dawn', about early morning thoughts and fears and putting on a brave face when battling shadows and doubt each day, and 'Waltz For The Common' which also featured the mesmerising and heartfelt sway of Maya Simmons's voice and Marcus Holden's mandolin and violin playing. Campbell's blend of acoustic and electric folk styles – from Appalachia and London, to the streets of Sydney – combined with blues, country and Americana, show that his influences are wide-ranging, from iconic artists such as Joni Mitchell, Nick Drake, Bob Dylan, The Beatles and The Allman Brothers, to contemporary Antipodean songwriters such as Paul Kelly, Neil Finn and Bernard Fanning. The results of Pete's musical discussions between the past and the present prove comprehensively that Parley is a conversation worth having.

It was the soundtrack to her journey: Katharina Busch offered with „Ten hours on a bus“ her debut album. Its poetic songs rattled well known folk music clichés with at times intimate orchestral mixes. Two years later, in 2016, her second album «Blue silver diamond light” followed with unique and precious compositions, lined up like pearls on a necklace. Katharina mixed colours of folk, pop and jazz in order to tell her stories. Both albums have been supported by the city of Zurich and songs such as “Try Try” and “Over you over me” have been and still are on rotation at numerous radio stations. So is her song “Du weisst nicht warum” from her third release – an EP entitled “Neue Worte neuer Wind.” This EP was her first project in her native tongue German, yet remained true to her style. Katharina grew up in a musical family. She started early playing the piano and xylophone, before she began producing electronic music as a teenager. It was during that time Katharina discovered her passion for singing. After completing her hotel management studies, she set out on a journey to travel the world. „I am a curious person and I love to pack my bags and leave, not knowing what to expect. “Katharina worked in a sushi-restaurant in the Bermudas, travelled with her guitar for six months through South America and finally settled down in Zurich. Hundreds of song ideas arrived with her and eventually turned into her first album.

“I aspire to being madly authentic,” singer-songwriter David Hobbes says. On his forthcoming debut album Searching for a Home, his songwriting is by turns tender and clever, often within the same song. There’s diversity in the instrumentation and musical styles, but never for ornamentation’s sake alone. In the stories of his songs, you can hear his evolution as a songwriter and a human being. He doesn’t pretend he had the answers all along. Even when he dips into escapist fantasies like “We Are Wild,” (on upcoming album) the lyrics serve to further a real-world situation. In these ten songs, it’s apparent that Hobbes doesn’t just aspire to authenticity so much as he can’t escape it. The album’s first single, “Measure of Degree,” releases September 28, 2023.

AUTUMNS EYES, the gothic metal one-man outfit helmed by Daniel Mitchell, is pleased to share the first offering from the band’s upcoming studio album. The new song, “Follow the Embers”, is accompanied by a music video and comes off the new full-length, ‘Grimoire of Oak & Shadow’, which will be released in January 2024. With more than two decades of creative passion and meditations on horror/the occult as the foundation, Autumns Eyes celebrates the ilk of brooding and unvarnished luminaries. Commenting on “Follow the Embers”, Mitchell shares: “We are only as good as what we surround ourselves with, but how do we reconcile our trajectory in life when some of those things turn abrasive? It's never easy to let go of what you've grown so accustomed to, but many times it's out of sheer necessity, so as to ensure sanity and stability. Follow the Embers channels those thoughts, and reminds us that no matter how difficult it may be to let those things go, it won't be nearly as difficult as letting them stay.”

Hypnotised is a unique song that combines Lofi, Pop and RnB styles. The distinct desirable aspect of Hypnotised is the heartfelt and vulnerable lyrics. Hypnotised is a song about liking someone who does not want a relationship, and having the patience to wait for them until they are ready for love. The song creates a captivating, dreamy atmosphere. The catchy lyrics and melody are easy to sing along with. With this campaign, I hope to bring Hypnotised to as many young people who can relate to the feelings in the lyrics. These will be young adults and teenagers who are starting to enter the world of romance and love. Fans of Pink Sweat$, Keshi and Thuy are likely to enjoy Hypnotised, which is a calm and relaxing style of song. Korean listeners may also enjoy NEUL's Korean style of production in Hypnotised.

From Columbus, OH Easy Tiger is an electronic dance-rock 3-piece composing to understand and to be understood. Jonathan Hayes plays guitar, keys, and sings. Josh Wydick plays bass, while Tyler Dunham drums. Easy Tiger’s self-titled debut EP, featuring the single Rag and Bottle, is introspection into those parts of us that wonder why people sometimes leave us in different ways, what we choose to do about that, and the results of you know, trying. Sometimes the story is positive, sometimes it’s not, and sometimes it’s neither. Rag and Bottle, itself, is about finding the positive in a negative when all you can do is try to maintain and how liberating that can be. Easy Tiger was conceived intact in the earlier months of the pandemic. It’s been a time of gut punches and uncertainty. Through that, Easy Tiger was awarded a grant from the Greater Columbus Arts Council and found itself on the other side of a months-long process of stop and go that’s resulted in a record others can hopefully appreciate as we do.

My new single Lovers Rock is out now! As a songwriter, Lovers Rock is one of those songs that you wish came along more often. Once I had the idea of lover’s rock being a place (a hill or a mountain and not a reggae sub-genre) the song pretty much wrote itself. It is about a young couple with amorous feelings who do not have a place of their own. Maybe they still live with their parents, there’s no room or privacy, so they go to lover’s rock. Two-and-a-half minutes of indie pop escapism. Sometimes you can struggle with a song but this one was a joy to play and I threw some colour into the mix: flute, glockenspiel and a squelchy synth sound. My brother Julian says that you can be a technically brilliant musician (I'm not and he's much better than me), but having a distinctive sound is the real game-changer. He reckons I have found my sound. Playlist curators and music media outlets via Groover think so too. Here’s some feedback for my previous single 'Oh Yeah.' • Vtcontar, Brazil: “’Oh Yeah’ is a piece of art. An interesting and innovative style. I think it has the potential to reach many people.” • UKI Radio, UK: “This sounds like Radiohead crossed with David Bowie to my ears and a great tune. A very strong atmosphere too.” • Eoler, Italy, said: “Wonderful … it makes the person who is listening feel amazing.” • XO la Factory, Italy: “Really a very interesting song. Finally, something fresh and original and, above all, personal.” • Treehouse Music, UK: “Luscious atmospheric song. We like the dreamy vibe.” Well, it happened pretty much by accident. I wanted to make music but not pay money and watch the clock in a recording studio, so I bought an 8 track Tascam digital recorder and started recording at home with the limited equipment I already had: a condenser mic, a Yamaha keyboard and a Martin guitar. It turns out the core of my sound is acoustic guitar combined with synths which I put through guitar pedals (flanger, delay, chorus and Ibanez tube screamer).

"If you are angry, you are not alone." In an age where monotony overshadows art, and numbness suppresses raw emotion, Savior emerges as a balefire, guiding us back to genuine human depth and authenticity. Beyond a confluence of fast notes and intense lyrics—the music is a visceral reckoning. The world has been swathed in layers of pretense and safety, where many have forgotten the power of raw intensity and emotion. Savior challenges this status quo, pushing boundaries and questioning our numb complacency. M.L.H.'s vocals are a raucous reflection of a journey through psychosis, delivering unfiltered accounts from the very precipice of human despair and rage. Neural Blade's guitar work is a manifestation of the unyielding power of fast, supermassive riffing. Together, this French-American duo breaks the chains of the insipid, breathing life back into a dull, rigged post-pandemic society. "Evil Rising,” the band’s first single, is a window into a soul grappling with its darkest shadows. It speaks to those moments when anger blurs the line between sanity and madness, and the world turns starkly black and white. Our darkest emotions are a crucial part of the human experience, they must be confronted. Each line penned by M.L.H. is a harrowing recount of the anger and violence that once consumed him—a journey many silently endure but seldom voice. Through "Evil Rising", Savior grants us the license to confront our own demons, to stand face-to-face with our most potent emotions without judgment or fear. But beyond the raw, powerful riffs and heavy drumbeats, Savior's mission is evident—to awaken a world lulled into passive acceptance. Through their art, they challenge us: dare to feel, dare to rebel, and dare to save ourselves from the shackles of the mundane. With this debut, Savior doesn't just offer us a song; they give us a movement—a call to rise above the safety of the ordinary and rediscover the raw, undiluted essence of life and art. In their resistance to the norm, Savior embarks on a journey to preserve the sanctity of metal and to remind us all of the fierce, burning power of true emotion. Embrace the chaos, for in it lies salvation.

Miles East’s highly anticipated second album Between Lightning and Thunder is a voyage through the dark waters of a relationship in crisis. Some songs serve as distant beacons of light guiding the voyager through that darkness, while others are the dark water itself, portending imminent danger or its ever-present threat. The voyage begins with a promise couched in desperate optimism, and ends with a redemption profound in its quiet simplicity. Recorded and produced by acclaimed artist/producer Blake Morgan, Between Lightning and Thunder navigates a sonic landscape mapped by the longitude and latitude of Beck’s Sea Change and Paul McCartney’s Ram. Its songs summon recollections of Iron & Wine, Ray LaMontagne, and Jason Isbell. Of the album’s lead single, “Better Than Here” (out October 17th), East says, “It’s an ode to the boldness of buoyancy and hope, and to the promises we make to those we love when weathering dark forces.” Following more than a decade atop New York City’s recording scene as a premier session and touring drummer, Miles East (vocals, acoustic guitars, drums), was joined in the studio only by Morgan (bass, electric guitars, keyboards, backing vocals) and musical-polymath, arranger, and producer Justin Goldner (electric guitars, baritone) for this new record. “Blake and I have worked in the studio together countless times––as we did on my first record,” explains East. “But we wanted to add a new flavor to the stew this time with Justin, who is as accomplished and stunning a musician as you’ll ever have the privilege to meet. The resulting aural stew, its scope, and depth, is an exquisitely rich one rendered by only us––three musicians.” East’s first album ‘Ghosts of Hope’ was heralded as “A sparkling debut” by No Depression, and “Haunting,” by Vents Magazine. ‘Between Lightning and Thunder’ arrives in early 2024, with lead single “Better Than Here” out October 17th on ECR Music Group.

Deirdre, the musical alias of Joakim Johnsen, is a Copenhagen-based songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Drawing influence from 90’s slacker-rock, emo, grunge and shoegaze combined with a contemporary - experimental, layered and electronically manipulated - take on folk-rock/singer-songwriter, Deirdre (named after a tragic heroine in Irish folklore) creates boundary-pushing, melodic and intimate modern indie rock for the present day. With a warm and confessional - yet sometimes slightly absurdist, wry and detached - tone of voice, Johnsen’s lyrics offer unfiltered and immediate everyday observations comprising unique personal perspectives on otherwise familiar feelings such as longing, loneliness and doubt.

Hailing from Medellin and now based in Boston, Ra is a songwriter and vocal performer who has been shaped by a unique blend of influences, combining her classical training as a Soprano with a deep affinity for diverse genres such as Spanish rock, Colombian folkloric music, electronic music, and film scores. With a background rooted in her experiences as a Colombian woman, Ra's artistic ambition lies in harmoniously melding the storytelling and vocal techniques of opera with the emotive styles of other musical genres. Ra's highly anticipated debut album, "The Llorona," serves as the centerpiece of a larger creative endeavor, sharing its name with a novel she's concurrently crafting. Through the album's intricate compositions, Ra embarks on a personal journey, encapsulating themes of self-discovery, love, fear, and transformation. Drawing inspiration from the Latin-American myth of the weeping woman, La Llorona, Ra's reinterpretation of this narrative breathes hope into its fabric. Ra stands as a multidimensional artist with a strong academic foundation, having been honored with the Creative Entrepreneur Fellowship from the Arts & Business Council of Greater Boston. Ra's musical compositions, while broadly appealing and danceable, also possess an experimental edge, seamlessly blending elements from classical and commercial domains. Her vocal delivery shifts between lyrical and popular techniques, at times intertwining with spoken word akin to poetic recitation. These vocal intricacies are further complemented by electronic arrangements, inspired by revered artists like Björk, Emma Shapplin, Kate Bush, and Billie Eilish. Ra's musical narrative radiates empowerment, self-awareness, critical introspection, and hope, inviting listeners to engage with the complexities of the world.
