Weather Happy – “It Leaks Out” (Song Premiere)

Today is a great day to share the new single from the UK Alt-rock duo, Weather Happy, called “It Leaks Out.”

”This was one of the first songs we wrote for this project,” the band explains. “It’s a song about masking and bottling up negative thoughts and feelings until they inevitably find a way out. The enigmatic “corridors” featured in the song represent the journey and impression those feelings make on and around our bodies with the constant need and pressure to reassure everyone that everything is fine. We loved writing this track. We were still working out which direction to take the band but rather than just ease in we kicked it off with this angry, angular, frustrated track and it perfectly reflected where we both were at that very moment in our lives.”

Weather Happy is the duo of Holly Carter and Harry Carter, and their great chemistry as friends boils over on this vibrant new single. If you’re enjoying the track, keep your eyes peeled for the band’s debut EP, called Moth, that releases on October 30th via Easy Does It Records.

Today I’m excited to introduce everyone to singer-songwriter, Andy Koh, who is stepping out on his own after many years in playing in Alt Rock band Coloring Tunes. Today, Koh is launching the news of his debut LP called Taking The Long Way and the lead single/lyric video for “Everything.” “‘Everything’ is what I think of as a hybrid song,” Koh shares, “The chorus was written in my youth, but new and more developed musical ideas and lyrics, shaped by decades of experience, finally brought it to completion. In many ways, it reflects where things eventually landed rather than where they started.” If you’re enjoying the new single, please consider supporting Andy Koh here.

Tightwire’s singer, Tane, shared, “Canadian Rifle’s side of the split is really good! Funny story, I wrote ‘I Need You Here Tonight’ on the same day as ‘Anyone But You’ (song from previous LP), and it’s about the same person, but from the opposite perspective.” Tightwire is also gearing up to hit the road later on this month with Teenage Bottlerocket and The Drowns, with tour dates found below.

Today I’m so excited to share the latest single from indie pop duo, CA in LA, called ”Clarity”. The track comes from the artist’s forthcoming reissue their latest record, called Hindsight: Deluxe Edition. CA in LA is the creative partnership of best friends Courtney Birk and Ashleigh Coffelt, two longtime collaborators whose artistic world blends music, film-making, visual art, and storytelling into one universe. Originally connecting in Maryland through independent film-making, the duo later relocated to Los Angeles to pursue their creative ambitions while building a loyal online community through years of weekly live music streaming on Twitch. Influenced by artists like PVRIS, Daughter, Flyleaf, and Lydia, CA in LA has developed a distinctive alternative rock sound that reminds me a bit of The Cranberries, Snarls, and Beabadoobee. The band shared, “‘Clarity’ marks the beginning of a new music era for us. Getting sober, leaving self-doubt behind, and focusing on listening to our intuition, we had so much fun playing with song structure, guitar tones, and layered harmonies. We’re excited to share our hopeful, introspective love letter dedicated to everyone going through it and wanting to be better. We see you.” If you’re enjoying the new single, please consider pre-saving the track here.

Today I’m so excited to bring everyone the latest single from songwriter Candace Hastings called “Call Your Mama.” The deeply personal song is sure to evoke some sort of emotions from anyone who takes the time to listen to it. When asked about the inspiration behind the new single, Candace Hastings shared:

This song was written by Mary Beth Schaefer, who is a talented songwriter and just happens to be my daughter. And the backstory behind the song is almost as good as the song. I can’t even remember why I had called my daughter, but she didn’t pick up and didn’t call me back for several days. At the time, I remember thinking, ‘I’m glad I wasn’t having a heart attack or anything,’ but honestly I know she’s busy and didn’t give it too much thought. She told me she had that reminder rolling around in her head—call your mom, call your mom—but when she sat down to write, it turned into something different. What she came up with was a song about those exes who like to circle back after everything is over—calling to check in, keep tabs, or ease their conscience, when really, they ought to call their mama instead. I released the song as a single because it’s an ex-song that has a take I’ve never heard before. There’s no revenge keying of the car, no yelling, just some good old-fashioned boundary setting by a strong woman who’s had enough.

Today I’m thrilled to bring everyone the latest single from Texas folk duo, Crow and Gazelle, called “The High Road.” The track comes from the band’s new album, Truth Be Told, that will be released on streaming services on May 15th. When speaking on the direction of the new single, the band shared:

We believe we have a soul contract together. As a couple, as friends or comrades, we have reincarnated together before, many times – millennia and centuries before and after, always seeking the higher road to find and feel real freedom. For us, that high road means we’re here to balance and harmonize the feminine and masculine for divine love. And we see the characters of Truth Be Told as the same. Remembering, when one is empowered, we both are. When one is oppressed, we all are. So we need to work together. In a place of balance, time itself is non linear, not a rigid straight line. Time, and life herself folds in and upon itself, giving us another chance (if we’re lucky) to take the high road to freedom. We set this as the first track to set the tone, that perhaps we’ve all been here before – our ancestors certainly have – in this place of being able to right the course and bring love and life back to the center. Into focus. This was the last song we wrote for the album; it came in a flurry to Mike, one night in our last days of recording the album.

If you’re enjoying the track, please consider pre-saving the album here.

Today is a great day to share the latest single from NYC-based rock band, Princess Goes, called “Stranger.” Princess Goes features Michael C. Hall (vocals), Matt Katz-Bohen (keys/synths/bass/guitar) and Peter Yanowitz (percussion/additional instruments). The band explains: “‘Stranger’ is song about meeting each other with kindness and curiosity. A seminal 90’s grunge bass intro lead us into 90’s Britpop dance blur. We finally meet each other in the massive, epiphanic, glorious, and soaring finale, no longer strangers, but as….friends.” If you’re enjoying the track, please consider following the band’s updates here.
