JULIE EDDY – BUMMIN’ CIGARETTES FT. JAKE MATTHEW

JULIE EDDY is back with a song that truly stops you in your tracks. ‘Bummin’ Cigarettes/ pulls you in from the very first note, setting the scene with ease. It carries that classic country feel, layered with nostalgic, smoky undertones that linger throughout.

Featuring Jake Matthew, his raspy voice slips in early, hinting at a past chemistry between the two. As he sings, “Been a while since I’ve been back here / Only gonna stay ’til the end of this beer… You were comin’ back up from fallin’ too hard / I was livin’ it up with a locked down heart / We both know we could take it too far / ’Cause we’ve been there before,” you can feel the weight of their shared history.

Julie’s voice enters on the pre-chorus, and from there, the two blend effortlessly into a catchy, memorable chorus: “I offer you a drag / You bummed a light / We got to talkin’ all night / Then one led to another / Seein’ nothing but each other… / Ain’t no flame to put out when it ends / It’s just bummin’ cigarettes.”

​The songwriting is sharp and witty, adding depth to an already compelling story. By the time Julie takes the spotlight in the second verse, you’re fully immersed in the rekindling of their connection.

​Paired with crisp, radio-ready production, ‘Bummin’ Cigarettes’ stands out as a strong single for Eddy. It’s the kind of song that feels both timeless and current, and one that showcases exactly why Eddy is an artist to watch right now.

JENNA DEVRIES – FLAT EARTH

Nashville-based singer-songwriter JENNA DEVRIES‘ new single ‘Flat Earth’ isn’t flirting with conspiracy theories — it leans into them, using them like a funhouse mirror to show how heartbreak twists reality. The “flat earth” isn’t just a wild idea — it’s a metaphor for doubt, for the way your mind stretches to make sense of something you thought was solid but wasn’t.

The verses — “Maybe there was no man on the moon / Maybe birds are too good to be true / Powers that be aren’t what they seem / And you never really loved me” and “Maybe aliens built the pyramids / And Atlantis is where they all hid / In the depths so nobody believes / And you never really loved me” — float through impossible scenarios, almost playful, before folding back into that one quiet sting.

The conspiracies aren’t literal — they’re the emotional logic of someone trying to explain love that never existed. When the thing you trusted most turns out to be false, suddenly even the strangest ideas start to feel possible.

‘Flat Earth’ was released last Friday (24th April) across all leading music platforms. Have a listen below…

DAVE LENAHAN – FIRST

DAVE LENAHAN‘s new single ‘First’ is a heartfelt country ballad that explores love through the lens of vulnerability—the quiet fear of losing the person who means everything. Rooted in a traditional country sound, Dave’s emotional delivery shines throughout, especially in lines like “Hand in hand together till the end of time / But we can’t live forever, life is so unfair,” and the striking chorus confession, “I don’t wanna live a day without you on this Earth / I wanna go first.” The track also features Taylin Rae, whose harmonies add a beautiful emotional counterpoint.

‘First’ was released last Thursday (23rd April) via all leading music platforms. Have a listen below…

DANIEL LEYES – HA HA WEED IS LEGAL + STONER MATING CALL

DANIEL LEYES shares two singles – ‘Ha Ha Weed Is Legal’ and Stoner Mating Call’ – for your pleasure!

‘Ha Ha Weed Is Legal’ is a celebratory anthem about cannabis legalization and cultural change. Inspired by New Jersey’s legalization and shaped by humor and social commentary, the track embraces freedom and challenges outdated prohibition with playful defiance.

‘Stoner Mating Call’ is a soulful, lighthearted love song built around a simple opening line: “Mama – if you wanna smoke some marijuana, honey I’m the man for you.” It blends humor and warmth into a relaxed, character-driven track.

Why not brighten up your day and check them out below…

XO SOUNDTRACK – CLOSE

‘Close’ was released last Thursday (23rd April) via all leading music platforms. Listen below:

STARSPIRE – UNCLAIMED BAGGAGE

London-based creative strategist and Managing Director Ranj George steps fully into his artist identity with the release of his debut album under his multi-genre project, STARSPIRE. Titled ‘What Is Meant For You’, the record is an ambitious and emotionally resonant body of work spanning 13 genres, from hip-hop to country, pop to indie, unified not by sound, but by storytelling.

The album’s lead single, ‘Unclaimed Baggage’, is a sharply observed country-pop reflection on modern male loneliness, following a mid-40s divorced man navigating dating apps, emotional fatigue and the quiet pressure to stay confident while feeling overlooked. Warm but unresolved, the track carries a lived-in quality, with intimate husky vocals and stripped back acoustic textures that mirror its bittersweet honesty. Have a listen to below…

DANI IVORY – NO OTHER WAY

DANI IVORY is back with her four-song EP ‘No Other Way’, a raw, unfiltered exploration of love, loss, and devotion. The project is a collective of soul, R&B, rock, country, and folk-pop, blending organic instrumentation with emotionally rich storytelling.Opening with ‘Looney Bin’ Ivory sets the tone immediately — messy, self-aware, and emotionally charged. Bright on the surface but layered with heartbreak underneath, the track blends organ, twangy guitars, and soulful textures that evoke Maggie Rose and Marcus King while staying rooted in Ivory’s signature sound: “I’ve been beating down every single door / I got no good shoes left to throw I’m looking for some more / I just can’t wrap my head tight around the thought / You’ve had enough of my love, don’t want me no more.”

The song captures the exhaustion, disbelief, and chaos of realising the love you’re giving isn’t wanted, with a chorus that makes the unraveling fully visible: “I turn into a wreck, a nasty mess / Mascara dripping, big hair flippin’ party bitch / I drink too much wine, I stay up all night / I’m a different woman when you’re roaming / Yeah I’m losing my mind to the looney bin.” Listen to ‘Looney Bin’ below…

VIANNA ROSE – I’M A GOOD WOMAN

Taken her new EP, ‘Echoes of Time’, available now on all streaming and download sites, VIANNA ROSE unveils focus track, ‘I’m A Good Woman.’ Channeling the bold attitude of Barbara Lynn’s original, pairing Southern soul grit with a warm R&B groove, ‘I’m A Good Woman.’ hooks listeners early with its turning-point lyric, “Now I know what I’m going to do… I’m gonna leave you,” before landing its emotional payoff through a striking, repeated outro refrain.

Check out the video for ‘I’m A Good Woman’ below…

Entirely written and produced by Sheyna herself, the project serves as a bold artistic statement—one that captures lightning in a bottle while showcasing her undeniable depth as both a songwriter and producer.

The EP’s title, ‘Two Weeks’, reflects the intense and deeply personal creative sprint during which Sheyna brought each track to life.

INDIGO SYNDICATE – DND

Nashville-based trio INDIGO SYNDICATE steps into 2026 with ‘DND’ (Do Not Distrub), a sleek, R&B-leaning departure that trades their usual alt edge for something darker and late-night ready. Built on a pulsing groove and moody production, the track moves through mixed signals and emotional stalemates, anchored by the hook: “You haven’t heard a thing I said / I’ve been getting left on read / I’m stressing, now you’re messing with my head, I’ll come around so wait on me.” The repetition of “wait on me” becomes the heartbeat of the song — a phrase that feels equal parts defensive and desperate, capturing the toxic push-and-pull at its core.

Comprising of Preston Pospisil, Samantha Sanford, and Jharyss Granger, Indigo Syndicate became quickly known for their genre-fluid blend of alternative, pop, indie and soul. The band continues to carve out a distinct space within the modern alternative music landscape.

Their rapid rise includes multiple placements across Apple Music’s New in Alternative and New in Indie, along with several singles featured on Live Nation’s Ones to Watch playlist.

XO SOUNDTRACK – TALK ABOUT ME

Nashville-based pop-rock/alternative outfit XO SOUNDTRACK‘s latest single, ‘Talk About Me’ sits in that familiar grey area where feelings linger longer than commitment. XO Soundtrack keeps things grounded sonically, with production that echoes glimmers of Walk the Moon, The 1975, and other indie rock darlings, pairing a clean synth line with a subtle pop-rock edge that lets the emotion while keeping intentional polish.

“Talk About Me” is inspired by the all too common “situationship.” The song tells the story of a couple who have been seeing each other off and on, and when the breakup happens, one person keeps talking about the other, even though THEY were the one to end it. I think everyone can relate to a “what are we?” kind of situation, and this song describes the emotions that come from it all.” – XOS

Renowned for high-energy, emotionally immersive live performances, XO Soundtrack – comprising of drummer Kai Clark, guitarist Austin Henderson, and vocalist Rock- has captivated audiences at notable Nashville venues including The End and The Basement. With a clear vision and a modern, emotionally driven sound, the band continues to carve out its place in the pop-rock/alternative landscape.

BEKRATIVE – LET IT BREATHE

CLARITY LIAO – LIKE I DO

Written as an English assignment before evolving into a fully realised studio release, ‘Like I Do’ captures the ache of unrequited love through the vivid metaphor of wandering endlessly through a desert. Stripped back and intimate, the track places Clarity’s delicate yet commanding vocal performance at the forefront, allowing her lyrical maturity and emotional nuance to shine.

“‘Like I Do’ was a song written just as homework given from my English tutor at first. The song really brought out my emotions from the current situation I was in at the time, also exploring a genre I’ve been liking but never really got to pursue, so I decided to take it to the studio. This song has so far been one of my favourite tracks to sing and listen to, also being one of the best expressed in my lyrics.” – Clarity Liao.

San Francisco-based singer-songwriter CLARITY LIAO continues to establish herself as one of pop’s most promising young voices with the release of her latest single, ‘Like I Do’. The mesmerising piano-led ballad follows the poignant alt-pop debut “Hurt My Heart” and further cements Clarity’s transition from award-winning band songwriter to compelling solo artist.

BELLA WOOD – DIRTY CHERRY

Rising pop artist BELLA WOOD returns with her most defining release yet in the intoxicating new single ‘Dirty Cherry’, a lust-fuelled, sharp-edged alt-pop statement that announces her arrival as one of 2026’s most compelling emerging voices.

Bella learned early that “home” isn’t always a safe word. At just thirteen, she was forced to leave behind instability and move in with her grandparents in Kelowna, trading chaos for quiet nights and the hum of crickets. But even in the stillness, music never stopped playing in her mind. By seventeen, determined to carve out her own future, Bella packed a duffel bag and moved to Vancouver with one goal: make it in music.

I wrote this song at a time when the gap between who I was and who people said I was felt like a really big jump,” Bella explains. “Instead of internalising my frustration, I write – it’s kind of like keeping a diary for me. Songwriting is the only way I really know how to process my emotions. Me and my producer Nic Charuk explored several iterations before landing on the final version.” – Bella Wood
