MCMILLIN – FEEL

MCMILLIN’s new single ‘FEEL’ captures something a lot of people are wrestling with right now: the desire to feel, the instinct to put up walls, and the uncertainty of how to process it all. He leans into that tension with vulnerability, delivering it in a way that feels both honest and refreshingly new.

​The track opens with the sound of a tape clicking on, a subtle touch of nostalgia that contrasts beautifully with the polished, modern production. Blending pop synths with a live drum feel, the sound mirrors the emotional push and pull at the heart of the song.

‘FEEL was released on Friday, 1st May across all leading platform. Listen below…

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.

‘Bummin’ Cigarettes’ was released on Friday, 1st May via all leading music platforms. Listen below…

Mariam Davina’s new single, ‘Couldn’t Imagine’, is a heartfelt Christian ballad, a love song of gratitude to Jesus. It honours His sacrifice, constant presence, and faithful friendship.

A Quick Chat With…Peter Lord

Introducing – or should I say – reintroducing PETER LORD. He’s the founding member of the genre-defying collective The Family Stand who helped shape the sound of generations with genre-defiant classics like ‘Chain’, ‘Moon in Scorpio’, ‘Connected’, and the timeless anthem ‘Ghetto Heaven’.

Now the trailblazing artist makes a powerful return with ‘BOOM,’ the explosive first single from his long-awaited solo album, ‘Songs From The 8th Dimension’, set for release next month, 29th August.

NLM: Hey, thank you for taking part in an interview with NEW LEASE MUSIC. It’s such a pleasure having you here. How is 2025 treating you so far?

PL: 2025 has been excellent. I have reconnected with the musical/sonic side of my creative instincts. During the last decade plus I have been primarily focused on the film and TV/streaming projects that I have written and am developing.

NLM: You recently released your single, ‘BOOM’ (on 4th July)’. What is the public’s perception of the single so far?

PL: The reaction has been extremely positive and receptive. And I have truly appreciated the fact that despite my recent inactivity in the music world, my new project feels relevant, and has resonated with new audiences, in addition to those who knew my music before.

NLM: What inspired you to produce the single?

Well the single “Boom”, as was, as all the songs on the album, were part of a musical TV/Streaming series I’ve written called “Love Junkies.” While that long process is still underway to bring it to the screen, I felt these songs also stood up on their own and needed to be heard.

NLM: How would you describe the single’s sound to potential fans?

PL: I would say it’s an electric mix of modern music, with elements, of rock, hip hop, soul, “alternative pop’, grounded in story telling through song. It ties together one’s personal/emotional battles with those struggles going on in the world as a whole. Each of us often forget the lessons learned previously in our lives, as the world and various societies often do… and then everything goes “Boom.” – exploding, with consequences we subsequently have to deal with, and find hard to control.

NLM: Back in the 90s, you were with The Family Stand, which was one of the groups that helped re-shaped modern soul, R&B and hip-hop. How do you compare your sound now with The Family Stand?

PL: I would say the thematic elements are the same, in terms of the stories I want to tell, but sonically and creatively I refuse to stay stuck. I’m not trying to bring back the 90’s or early 2000’s. I am not trying to be nor am I “old school” anything.

NLM: What message would you like the listeners to take away from your single?

PL: No message. I only hope the listener resonates with what’s being said, lol and unsaid, and find their own “message” that serves them in a way that awakens their “higher self” and a deeper, truer, perception of themselves in this dimension of existence.

NLM: If you had to feature one mainstream artist on ‘BOOM’, who would it be and why?

PL: One of my musical heroes, one who just passed, Sly Stone, and my childhood creative north star, Stevie Wonder.

NLM: So what are your plans for the rest of the year?

PL: To support and put out my new album “Songs From The 8th Dimension.” Which will include putting out at least two more singles. I may even do a few “unplugged. performances” I’ll post on social media. And I will continue to work on my TV & Film projects.

NLM: How can potential fans contact you?

PL: The best place is INSTAGRAM.

NLM: Finally, if music did not exist, what profession would you do?

PL: I would be an ASTROPHYSICIST! Or pro pickleball player. F it BOTH! LOL
