Aunt Vicki – “Different Suits”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: Different Suits talks about the many life paths you can try out. Erin (the songwriter for this one) has been a sculptor, jewelry maker, clothing designer, life coach, and most recently a musician. So the chorus and bridge talk about trying things on literally, and casting them off if they aren’t working for you. The verses are more focused on trying to find that one right thing that will make you stand out and feel accomplished.

Cohen Sieg – “Will You Ever Come Back?”
Country: Canada
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: “Often when artists write about love and relationships, it is about how great things are in the beginning, and how they love their significant other, and how they are the best fit for this particular person. Or on the flip side, when a relationship ends they talk about how sad they are, how they are a victim, woe is me. But if you’ve ever been in a relationship (especially for a long period of time), you will find that things are not always that black and white. Sometimes you think you are the protagonist of your life, but when you take a step back you can see your flaws. That’s what I wanted for this song, to frame it as “I’m so sad, my relationship has ended, why would they do this to me” but then to take a step back and see “oh, maybe it’s because I was manipulative, and didn’t commit enough, or show enough attention.” I realize writing a song like this will make me look very bad (haha), but I really do feel in this culture some people need to hear this message and realize if they relate to the “protagonist (storyteller)” that maybe they need to take a step back in their relationship and look at it a bit more honestly.”

Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: Just in time for the spooky season, “I’m Not In The Right Mind” is the single ending a multi-year hiatus from alternative indie rock band Maudlin Strangers.

This single breaks a long silence, as well as begins a year-long steady release schedule from Maudlin Strangers, eager to make up for lost time.

Lipstk – “Solidarity”
Country: US
Genre: Indie Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: Written after a romantic partner moved across the country, this song was written in reflection on how they had changed my perception on life and love. Feeling proud of them for moving and chasing their dream was selfishly bitter sweet to know we wouldn’t be in each others lives on a daily basis anymore. Musically it felt like it just fell together perfectly and with out a whole lot of effort.

Gaby Elsol – “Save Me”
Country: US
Genre: Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: This heartfelt song delves into the depths of my life’s struggles, exploring themes of despair and thoughts of hopelessness. It touches upon the anger I harbor towards those who have wronged me. I express the turmoil within, finding solace either in the fleeting moments of temporary relief or in numbing my pain with worldly pleasures. The lyrics convey a sense of pleading for help, almost like a prayer to a higher power, yet accompanied by a feeling of surrender and giving up. The song speaks from a place of perceived failure and a sense of missed opportunities in life. It oscillates between moments of introspection and a raw, intense release of emotions towards those who have caused me pain. It also mourns the feeling of wasted time and a deep sadness when looking back at my life.

Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: The second single from Safari Inn’s debut EP, ‘The Sun Sets Slowly in the West’ embodies the heavier side of the duo. A mellow opening builds to Sabbath-sequel stabs and a frenzied tempo change that brings the song to an epic close.

Jared Adams – “You Are Not My Enemy”
Country: Canada
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: Written during pandemic lockdowns this song is about the division we were starting to see in the world.

Originally released in late 2020 as download only with all sales going to Red Cross to aid in the pandemic. After being well received by fans at shows, it’s finally getting a streaming release.
