MADDIE LENHART – LET HIM FLY

MADDIE LENHART‘s take on ‘Let Him Fly’ feels less like a cover and more like a quiet moment you’ve been invited into. Recorded live in a single take at Treehouse Studios in Nashville, Tennessee, her version strips everything back to its emotional core, honoring the songwriting of Patty Griffin while gently nodding to the familiarity of The Chicks.

Maddie has written hundreds of songs, earned over 40 independent cuts, and released her debut single “Sober,” which has surpassed 800,000 organic streams. In 2025, she released eight new songs, all landing on Spotify and Apple editorial playlists, performed at CMA Fest, was named one of Holler’s 10 Artists You Need to Know, and earned a Billboard feature for her breakout track “Drive Me Crazy.”

‘Let Him Fly’ was released on Friday (17th April) across all leading music platforms. Check it out below…

PAUL MINNICH – YOUR CLOWN

PAUL MINNICH returns with a sweet, refreshing take on the classic love song in ‘Your Clown,’ leaning into the quiet truth that love isn’t always expressed perfectly. Somewhere between the silliness, the everyday ups and downs, and the unpolished moments, Minnich offers a “bouquet” of words – a reminder that even imperfect expressions can carry real meaning.

‘Your Clown’ is released last Friday (17th April) across all leading music platforms. Check it out below…

JAENESE – RIDE

There’s something immediately disarming about JAENESE‘s “Ride.” It doesn’t try to oversell itself – it just settles into a mood and lets you live there for a while. Built on a soft, hazy groove from Noturmood, the track leans into that dreamy, neo-soul space where indie textures meet quiet intimacy. You can feel a faint lineage that brushes past the emotional honesty of Willow and the airy, romantic pull of Alvvays, but Jaenese keeps it personal and grounded.

‘Ride’ was released last Thursday (16th April) across all leading music platforms. Check it out below…
