Karen Harding recalls a warm feeling of acknowledgement in new single, ‘Invisible Stranger’

Taken from the fourth single from her eagerly anticipated album ‘Behind The Mask’, KAREN HARDING‘s new single, ‘Invisible Stranger’ rages with emotion, as the Australian singer-songwriter deftly dramatizes the familiar moment of feeling the warmth of acknowledgment…only to realise it’s for another, not for oneself. Teamed with the mesmerising sounds of the piano and richly layered vocals, Karen sings with an amalgamation of a soulful bluesy essence and a style of pop’s signature.

‘Invisible Stranger’ comes on the heels of the talented production of Daniel Nieberg, bringing to life Karen’s introspective lyrics and songwriting, written back in the 2021 Covid Lockdowns in Melbourne.

Karen Harding entered Melbourne, Australia’s vibrant music scene when she released her debut single, ‘I Didn’t Realise,’ released May 2021. Since then she has explored uncharted sonic waters by teaming up with artists and producers internationally.

Song of the Day: No Escape – KeeZY

Los Angeles based Hip-Hop meets pop artist KeeZY, also known as “Black Bieber,” is known for his incredible versatility and non-traditional approach to music. Defined by years of fighting for his acceptance, the artist uses innovation and unpredictability to confidently showcase his talents. A natural at singing, rapping, and crafting hooks, KeeZY is very strategic when it comes to songwriting. There are many artists who have tried multiple styles of music to show their versatility, but KeeZY has made it a point to master and embody two completely different genres of music as KeeZY himself and his alter ego, “Black Bieber.”

Raised in Cleveland, Ohio, KeeZY took to music at an early age – writing, producing, mixing and mastering his first song by the age of 12. By learning all aspects of the recording process, the artist learned invaluable skills which eventually led KeeZY to open his own recording studio chain, Pulse Studios.

His sound encompasses themes including lust, empowerment, and navigating the industry while reaching for success. In a world full of generic artists, KeeZY constantly pushes the envelope with his experimental yet palpable songwriting that connects with listeners around the globe.

Amelle Rose shares her experience with postpartum depression in new single, ‘Congratulations’

AMELLE ROSE‘s new single ‘Congratulations’, sees the indie rock singer-songwriter delving into the depths of her experience with postpartum depression. Amelle crafts a melancholic piece that bravely confronts the unspoken struggles many mothers face. Through hauntingly cinematic melodies and poignant lyrics, the song opens a raw dialogue about the internal conflict of embracing motherhood while grappling with a profound sense of loss and identity crisis.

‘Congratulations’ serves as a courageous testament to this taboo subject, offering solace and understanding to those who find themselves silently struggling. Simultaneously, this invitation into Amelle’s world of vulnerability sparks conversations about the often overlooked struggles of new motherhood, pushing boundaries and challenging societal norms through evocative storytelling, ultimately resonating on a deeply human level.

Transforming songs into a powerfully introspective and atmospheric experience, Amelle Rose is able to navigate dreamy soundscapes inspired by deeply intimate memories and experiences, alongside gutsy indie rock songs that take advantage of fiercely honest lyrics and a distinctive, rebellious sound. Described by Clout as “creating a vulnerable and honest energy”, both sides of Amelle’s music are as wistful and brooding as they are strong, bold, and unapologetic.

Amelle is a 27 year-old singer-songwriter from France now making a new home for herself in Bristol. A lot of her work is focused around mental health and the human condition, which pairs beautifully with her distinctively open approach to composition and songwriting. Her debut album, ‘Conversations with Louise,’ released in 2022, marked a significant milestone in her artistic journey, showcasing her talent for fearlessly vulnerable and introspective storytelling. Now, with her latest offering, ‘Congratulations,’ she continues to delve into these themes, navigating the conflicting emotions and grey areas of postpartum struggles with raw honesty.
