Copenhagen Based R&B Sensation Jada Releases Her Hotly Anticipated New Single, ‘Something to Say’

November 12, 2021

Jada first came to my notice with the powerful ballad ‘I’m Back’ earlier this year but anyone who has been following her social media knows that she has been quietly kicking up a storm in her home country Denmark with releases like ‘On Me’ and ‘Nudes’. Her quite mesmeric performance on the Zulu Awards Show highlighted just how incredible she is as a live act and it’s no surprise that she will be headlining at the legendary Orange Stage at the Roskilde Festival next year.

Coming from Ukraine and already garnering critical approval from The Independent and Headliner magazine, Alex, the 23-year-old behind Marineris, has really managed to take his inspiration from his beginnings in an industrial town in Ukraine to something that is globally applicable.

Sofia Lafuente Releases Her Highly Anticipated New Single, ‘Good Intentions’, And Chats To EP About What Inspires Her.

October 29, 2021

Sofia Lafuente’s name translates as ‘the fountain’ and it seems that she’s at a point in her artistic life where her music is flowing in a very powerful way. Out on all platforms, her stunning new single ‘Good Intentions’ is certainly more introspective than her debut EP ‘Control’. It marks a new direction sonically for this talented multi-faceted artist as she sings in her native Spanish for the first time and this track really does serve to illustrate her ability to tell a story and bring it to life in a dramatically relatable way.

Nicki Nicole Releases ‘Parte De Mi’, An Album That Will Make You Rethink The Way You Consume Music

October 29, 2021

One of my favourite artists is Zucchero and I understand virtually no Italian but love the songs. To stop listening to the words is like losing one of our senses in that it heightens the others; suddenly we are not listening to the words but to the emotion, the tone of the voice, the way the words are delivered. This could not be more apparent than in today’s release from Latin sensation Nicki Nicole.

Dave Vargo Releases ‘Fault Lines’, The Second Single From His Forthcoming Album.

October 27, 2021

Dave Vargo graduated from one of the most prestigious musical institutions in the world. Coming away from Berklee College of Music in Boston with honours is an outstanding accomplishment. Just spend a second looking at the famous graduates of this incredible college and you will see what I mean. This set the artist up as a touring performer and session player who went on to perform with the likes of Whitney Houston and Vonda Shepard, to name a couple, before starting to play solo.

US Pop Sensation Nadine Releases New Single ‘Missed Call’ Today And Chatted With EP.

October 22, 2021

Nadine Bloch, known professionally as Nadine, is set to release her third single today. ‘Missed Call’ follows on from the excellent ‘My Way’ and ‘Three’ which both showcase the diversity and quality of this artist. Having graduated from the prestigious popular music program at USC, where she added to her already outstanding natural ability developed from the age of 5 in musical theatre, Nadine has hit the ground running with the high quality of her output. ‘Missed Call’ is a further development along the path of musical female empowerment; it’s very clear that Nadine self-empowers with her lyricism as she writes very definitely from the perspective of a young modern woman, but the music is also hugely empowering to the listener whatever the age or gender.
