Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors have gone southern rock with their brand new song "Suffering", which marks the band's first new single of 2024 year and arrives as they plan to hit the road for a U.S. headline tour.

"I had Dale and Roy come in and play along with Steven and I to some riffs, then I took those sessions and figured out what parts would work and wrote new music to fit. This isn't a studio approach we've ever taken. Usually we have the songs written BEFORE we start recording!" (continue)

Singer-songwriter and actress Belle Lundon just released "Space Cadet (Remix)" and to celebrate we asked Lundon to tell us about the track. Here is the story:

Space Cadet (Remix) was written by Belle Lundon and produced by Kalani Ware. The song is an energetic statement of endurance and resilience in the frustrating and oftentimes threatening music industry. Right from the beginning, the track is firmly in the grip of these repeated piano chords that serve for personal endurance and as a powerful cry against the status quo. Lundon's resilience is reflected in her adequacy, and her opponents deserve respectful nods; her stance is permanently stable and unchangeable. It is not just a song. It is a true hymn of those who courageously look for their light everything within their professional world. (continue)
