- Interview: "Will I" by Sammy Ave
Q: 'Will I' is a pretty catchy song! Can you tell us what the meaning of the song is? Sammy: Will I is actually a conversation with myself about taking the next step forward to be better. I talk about the possibility of doing things that will hold me back such as certain people who have come across my life, holding back the truth of my passion for music, or even battling my own worst enemy which is myself. Q: What made you decide to become an artist? Sammy: Music is one thing that has always made me hopeful and feel great. A few years ago, I got really sick, and the doctors didn't know what was going on and it is something I face to this day. I always loved to sing so I thought I would take a stab at recording. It is safe to say that music is something that saved my life during this time as it is the one thing that made me feel better and allow myself to heal. From that point on I knew that I wanted to make an impact on other people's lives and change the world. That is the goal for me. To make a difference in people's lives. Q: Who are some of your biggest inspirations and why? Sammy: My biggest personal inspiration is my brother. I see someone like him do what he loves and wants to do every day. This is something that inspires me to chase my dream and do exactly what I love everyday. In terms of music, a major inspiration of mine is Juice WRLD. I used to sit in my room when I first started music and listen to his music figuring out ways I can sound like that and mimic his style. I would do whatever it takes to get my music to sound more professional and through being inspired by someone like Juice, I eventually built off that to create my own unique style of recording. Q: What would you say was one of your favorite moments in the process of creating 'Will I'? Sammy: There is always a point in recording a song when I just smile and know I have something special. When I was done recording all the layers for the pre-chorus, I just listened back and immediately went crazy knowing I had a song I would be extremely proud of releasing. When I record, I never write lyrics because I don't like to commit to something that might not sound great when being recorded. I always freestyle my lyrics when recording and then pick and choose. I ended up freestyling that entire pre-chorus and when I was done, it made me so excited that I banged out the rest of the song shortly after. Q: What is your favorite song of all time and why? Sammy: My favorite song of all time is easily Runaway by Kanye West. This is a song I can always listen to and never get bored. In terms of a production standpoint, I feel as it is perfect with piano intro and even the catchy chorus. Something I strive to do in music is create unforgettable choruses so when it comes to a song that has a great chorus, it will always be something I love. Q: Can you tell us what else you have in store for the future? Sammy: I currently have two other songs recorded that will be my next releases. My next one is called Goosebumps and has a surprise feature. As good as Will I is, Goosebumps takes my music to a new level. The music is going to continuously get better. For now, people can expect music videos, live sessions, and much more to come. Written By Kaitlyn Nicole FOLLOW SAMMY:
- Interview: "Scorpio Season" by Hunter Blair Ambrose
Q: 'Scorpio Season' is your debut album, how exciting is that! Can you tell us what the experience of creating your first album was like? Hunter: The process of creating Scorpio Season wasn’t linear or really planned at first at all. After I left college at Berklee College of Music, I just randomly began writing pop songs on my piano, with no concept or plan to create an album at that point. That was 5 years ago, in early 2017, and one of those first songs I wrote ended up becoming my very first single called “Right Now” which is featured on the album. Through the years, since 2017, it has truly been an experience of a lifetime creating this project. I learned so much about what it is to create music just by watching and collaborating with my producers. I really can’t speak to their praises enough. It was my first time collaborating on music to that level and I had an absolute blast. Making this album was also rather cathartic and healing for me considering it was inspired by a former relationship of mine that went wrong and really affected me for a long time. Q: What was the moment you knew you wanted to be an artist? Hunter: I can remember being really young, in the early 2000s, watching artists like Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, etc. perform and just being awestruck by how the music and performances made me feel. I’ve always looked up to artists that implement strong visuals and staging and that have larger than life personas. There were several moments through my childhood where I would watch all of these iconic performers on MTV or YouTube and think to myself, “I want to be like that.” Click here to watch the 'Alone Together' Music Video! Q: How has living in NYC influenced you and your music? Hunter: New York has influenced me to no end and in countless ways. From the way I walk, the way I dress, the way I talk, and the kind of music and moods that I create in my art. This city is like no other, and being unique and artistic is so appreciated here - I never run out of inspiration. A lot of my music and the soundscapes that I used on “Scorpio Season” were inspired by the NYC nightlife scene and some of my most vivid memories in this city. Q: What is your songwriting process like? Hunter: I suppose my songwriting process is different depending on the level that my initial idea for a song is conceptualized in my mind. Usually, I start with the lyrics and go from there. I think the reason I approach songwriting in that way Is because I won’t be able to understand the mood or the chord progressions or the emotional core of the sonics until I fully understand what the theme of a given song is going to be lyrically. Q: What was your inspiration behind the theme of 'Scorpio Season'? Hunter: “Scorpio Season”, from its title, to its visuals, lyrics and production, are all directly inspired by a former relationship of mine that began and took place during the period of “Scorpio Season” (October/November) of 2016. I met my former love interest on his birthday and he happens to be a Scorpio. He fully embodied many of the characteristics that are key to the sign of Scorpio, as did the relationship itself. I wanted to create an album and universe that reflected that time and experience in my life so vividly for the listener, that they feel like they’re actually living the story themselves. Q: I know this is a hard decision, but what song off 'Scorpio Season' is your favorite? Hunter: Out of all of the songs that are on the album, my personal favorites would have to be “Alone Together”, “Baby Goodbye”, “Division”, Goodbye (4 Now), and “November” of course.

- "Alone Together" by Hunter Blair Ambrose
If you’re like me, then the pandemic has thrown your plans and your sanity into pandemonium. Disruptions in daily life. Isolation from friends and family. And the loneliness that results. ‘Alone Together’ by Hunter Blair Ambrose illuminates the sophisticated emotions surrounding lockdown, coupled with the artist’s love life reflections. “In this world, it’s like it would end; I try to go on my own, it never works". We often want to leave friends and lovers behind, but we can’t bring ourselves to go through with it. This song is for the hopeless romantics and those whose social lives have been in disarray (aka, everyone). Click here to watch the 'Alone Together' Music Video! The song’s signature synth-pop, disco production combines pure nostalgia with an uplifting, refreshing melody. “Your elevation is the sedation, but this introduction is pure song seduction". The lyrics from the post-chorus alone speak volumes. We often place the worth of our social connections above ourselves, and Ambrose eloquently describes that misconception. Reverbs and synths enhance the feeling of longing and represent how love can distort our perceptions. Ambrose’s vulnerable vocal performance flows beautifully with the grooves of synthesized instruments. It’s a story of heartbreak with the vibes of finding peace in your daydreams. What a relatable contrast! Hunter Blair Ambrose is a singer-songwriter and recording artist based in Manhattan, NY. She completed her education at Berklee College of Music for Professional Music. For the past few years, she has been collaborating with producer Jason Strong to create sensational hits for the underground pop scene. Her sound is distinctly crafted out of Pop/R&B, synth-pop, and timeless ‘80s classics, to name a few. ‘Alone Together’ is the fourth single off her debut album ‘Scorpio Season’ which is available now on all digital streaming platforms!

- Interview: "Party Down" by Connor Kirk
Q: ‘Party Down’ is an extremely catchy song! Can you tell us what it’s about? Connor: I wrote Party Down as a depiction of communication breakdown. Some may see it as somewhat nihilistic perhaps, but I tend to view it as more of an exploration into the broken means by which ideas are articulated in popular discourse. Q: How would you describe your unique style of music? Connor: The way I've been thinking of my style at present is "art-funk." It anchors itself on heavy bass and deep grooves but is simultaneously very skeptical/inquisitive about why one may want to dance to it. Q: If you had to pick a favorite song of your own, which song would it be and why? Connor: The one that I write tomorrow—As soon as I finish writing a song my interest immediately shifts. Q: What first got you into writing music? Connor: Around the age of 13, I began to feel an incessant urge to organize the thoughts in my head into a coherent form. I began playing the guitar and writing as a means of inquiry into the things that interested me—the things that tapped at the windows of my skull. Plus it made me feel a bit more like Jack Kerouac in the process. Q: What is your songwriting process like? Connor: I try to be as disciplined as I can when it comes to songwriting. Rarely do ideas come to me unless I violently seek them out, so I sit down every day with an instrument and work at it until I come up with something. I then take the initial idea (be it a melody, a phrase, a chord progression etc) and expound upon it until it feels complete. Q: What is one of your favorite memories from a performance? Connor: I love performing so much that most all moments on stage feel rather euphoric. But whenever the crowd knows the words to one of my songs and sings it with me the moment becomes truly spectacular. Written By Kaitlyn Nicole FOLLOW CONNOR:
- Interview: "Good Old Days" by Kelly Floyd
Q: Can you tell us what 'Good Old Days' is inspired by? Kelly: I wrote ‘Good Old Days’ during a transitional period in my life - I had just moved from my childhood hometown. While unboxing and trying to find stability in the new house my mom and I had just moved into, I couldn’t help but feel nostalgic. I was sitting in an empty living room thinking about when life was a little easier and more predictable. I thought the experience could make for a good song and then the phrase “Whatever happened to the good old days” came to mind. From that point, I started jotting down different memories and emotions from a period in my life that was more peaceful. I then was connected with Joey Auch, he produced and mixed ‘Good Old Days.’ I first began working with him in June 2021 - and this was also my very first time in a recording studio! Q: You have a really beautiful voice! Can you tell us what first got you into music? Kelly: Thank you so much! I’ve always been fascinated by the storytelling that goes on in songs and have been writing lyrics since I was 9 years old. Granted, most of my songs at age 9 were about my elementary school experiences and what I ate for lunch that day at school. Fast forward a few years, I began singing covers of some of my favorite artists and uploading those songs to my Instagram in high school. Then, during my first two years of college, my relationship with music shifted. It wasn’t so much a source of entertainment anymore as it was a guide for me, and a way to understand emotions I was feeling. My goal through my music is to help others understand and analyze emotions and experiences they’re going through. Click to listen to Good Old Days! Q: Who are some of your biggest influences? Kelly: There are so so many artists that I look up to. I really admire JP Saxe, Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo. I also love Fleetwood Mac. Q: Do you have any hobbies outside of music? Kelly: Outside of music, I really enjoy just writing for fun. I love journaling in my notes app on my phone or in physical notebooks I carry around. I’m also still in college (marketing major) so outside of music, I’m studying to finish my degree. I have a pretty large family which keeps me busy - and a cat and a dog who consider me their go-to person for everything :) Q: What would you say is your favorite line from 'Good Old Days'? Kelly: I think my favorite line from ‘Good Old Days’ has to be “Remember when a Monday, felt like the weekend?” I think it really encompasses how life has changed so quickly for me - a few years ago I could wake up on a Monday and not think much of it. Now, my schedule has changed and a Monday definitely doesn’t have the same feel as a weekend. With that being said, I actually really enjoy having a planned, scheduled week now. I’m really grateful for everything and everyone in my life right now and wouldn’t change anything. Q: What's coming next for you? Kelly: More music! My next single ‘4Walls’ comes out on January 28th, 2022. I’m really excited to put this song out as it shows a side of me most people don’t know. It’s very different from ‘Good Old Days.’ It tells a story I’ve never opened up about before, but I’m ready to share now. Through this, I hope those that listen think “yeah, I get what she’s saying and I’ve been there.” Written By Kaitlyn Nicole FOLLOW KELLY:
- "Zero" by JUNO
Fun and Funky. Those two words are the best way I could explain 'Zero' by JUNO. We've all had a time in our lives where we let what people say get to us. This song is exactly what we wish we could go back and say to all those haters. This song is the theme song of empowerment. We come to a time in our lives where we realize those haters don't matter. The only thing that matters is how we feel about ourselves. "I'm too expensive for your cheap talk; you can't touch what you can't afford". Think of yourself as the king / queen you are! This is the overall message of 'Zero', all while keeping the music itself playful and fun. The funky influence on the song makes you want to get up and dance around your room. This song will take any bad day and turn it into a party. Kahlia Brooke's playful and rich vocals send a message - don't take those meanies so seriously! Even in the bridge, the melody of the backup vocals almost sound like mockery - like a child saying "you can't catch me!". The mixture of horns and classic electric guitar add a soulful sound to the music, giving the music an almost old-fashioned feel. This Australian, Indie-Pop Duo are clearly a great match for each other. 'Zero' is JUNO's debut single but they are no strangers to music. Both Kahlia Brooke and Sam Woods have years of experience and happened to meet each other while playing in a different band together! They soon realized that between both of their extraordinary talents, they could go on to make something incredible together. They've got another single planned so stay tuned!

- Interview: "Cursed By Your Love" by Tricia Lo
Q: I really love the powerful and haunting sound of 'Cursed by Your Love'! Can you tell us what the story is behind the song? Tricia: Sure! "Cursed by Your Love" is a poetic story of a deep feeling of one's love & desire for someone who isn’t good for them, the person who brings out the worst side which they try to refuse at first but have no power to fight - “Can’t even think of the things you made me do”. The influence of love eventually transforms their identity entirely and there’s nothing else left other than just accepting it. Q: You created and filmed the music video 'Cursed by Your Love' entirely on your own! That's really impressive. Can you tell us what this video means to you? Tricia: When I started writing lyrics, I already had an idea in mind about the music video! I knew that I was going to direct it, film it and edit myself because my goal was to deliver the story behind the song not only sonically but visually as well! The song and the video "Cursed by Your Love" are indivisible personally to me. Q: Besides your own, what would you say is your personal favorite song to sing? Tricia: Such a good question! I don't think I have a favorite song to sing but my favorite song of all time is "Wicked Love" by Chris Isaak! I truly enjoy singing it of course! Q: When did you first start getting into music? Tricia: I've just always loved singing since I can remember myself but I started my first attempts at performing in front of the school audience around 13 years of age. I haven't been able to stop since then, haha! Q: You graduated from the Academy of Contemporary Music in the UK. Can you tell us what your favorite learning experience was there? Tricia: Let me be really honest here...Even though it might seem super exciting to study music and do what you love, in reality, my degree wasn't the best learning experience. Prior to my degree, I studied 2-year Music Diploma at London & Hammersmith College which I'd joined as a 17-year old foreign student from Latvia. That was an incredible time for me as I had learned so much & made friends so my expectations for higher education were quite high. However, I found that the degree wasn't so exciting and it was hard to make personal connections with fellow students because our class groups changed every term. Not being local, completely new to the city (Guildford, Surrey), and having fewer chances of making friends/personal connections due to these group changes made my stay there rather frustrating and lonely! Though, I have to admit that I explored all the possibilities of my voice that I wouldn't have been able to do by myself. Q: You are a singer, songwriter and a producer as well. If you could only choose one thing to do for the rest of your life (sing, song-write or produce) which one would you choose and why? Tricia: Funny enough...Despite my love for singing I'd prefer to be a producer if only got to choose one option! With singing, you're limited and even vulnerable - you can get sick, you can get vocal trauma, you need a separate space for singing and a certain time in the day for practice because neighbors won't be happy to listen to your singing at night, right? Being a producer you have so much more freedom because all you need is your DAW, a cheap microphone & a pair of headphones! You can sample sounds from literally anything, you can have a cold or flu and still produce at ANY time of the day. Besides, if I'm unable to write and sing - I can always find another singer-songwriter and still deliver my vision through collaboration. Written By Kaitlyn Nicole FOLLOW TRICIA:
- Interview: "Roman Holiday" by Skylar Lee
Q: I seriously can't get 'Roman Holiday' out of my head. Can you tell us how the song came to be? Skylar: Aw thank you so much! 'Roman Holiday' was so fun to put out. The song is based off of one of my favorite all-time movies, Roman Holiday, starring Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck. The premise of the film encompasses two people in Rome who fall in love at the right place but the wrong time. Even though it doesn't work out for them in the end, they still cherish the love that they had in that moment. I woke up with the idea for the song literally at 3am in the morning last summer, and knew I needed to bring the song to life! I ended up finishing it later that week, and I stepped back only to realize that I had something great in my hands! Q: What would you say your favorite lyrics are from 'Roman Holiday'? Skylar: I think my favorite lyrics are "An era that lasted one night." I love how it perfectly captures the life of Rome not only in the imagery, but also with its energy of a rushing love-affair. Q: What is your songwriting process like? Skylar: It's funny, because sometimes it's not always the same. In most cases, I'll get an idea of a melodic hook, or even a phrase to incorporate into a song. I'll then get my voice memo app out on my iPhone and try to hum into it (in these scenarios I might be in public at the grocery store or at an appointment, and I guarantee you that people look at me like I'm the craziest person on Earth which is hilarious). I'll then go back to my ideas and work from there. Sometimes I might get ideas from a line from a movie, or a book that I read. It really just depends! But the key is to always remain open to the ideas of the world around you - you never know what you might expect to find! Q: If you could switch lives with any other artist for a day, who would you switch lives with? Skylar: Oo that's a great question! I mean my go-to would have to be Taylor Swift...she's incredible, and I'd love to know what it's like in her day-to-day life. Q: You've been a musician for a really long time. What first inspired you to become an artist? Skylar: Well I would always be singing as a kid, really no matter what! In fact, I remember singing so much in school as a child, that some of the students would tell-on-me to the teacher because I'd sing too much! Although it wasn't until I was about 10 or so when one of my teachers told me that I had perfect pitch (in a nutshell it's when you can identify notes by hearing them - Charlie Puth talks about it all the time!) that I realized that music was something that I should really pursue. Q: What is coming next in your musical journey? Skylar: 2022 is gonna be super fun! I have more music coming on the way, so be sure to stay tuned, I'm super excited for you guys to listen!

- Interview: "Rome" by Arin
Q: We are in love with your song 'Rome'! Can you tell us the story behind it? Arin: Awesome yeah I’d love to. So ‘Rome’ was actually inspired by two close friends of mine who always had a bit of history between them. They both knew there was a bit of a spark but thought it best to maintain their friendship over everything else. I decided to write about the ‘what if’ and how it would be to venture into something previously forbidden. Q: Can you tell us what inspired you to start making music? Arin: Ever since I started playing guitar I’ve been entranced with trying to write songs as a form of expression for myself. I love how songwriting works as an outlet for emotions as well as a fun creative process where you can delve into a story. Q: What would you say your favorite line in 'Rome' is? Arin: For me it’s gotta be the lyrics in the bridge when it goes “falling deeper in, gotta sink to swim so let’s learn to drown together” Q: If you could collaborate with any artist of your choice, who would you choose and why? Arin: I’d love to work with Jeremy Zucker to see how he goes about creating music because I really appreciate his attention to detail especially within his production Q: What are your interests outside of music? Arin: I really enjoy bouldering and climbing, especially in the summer when it’s hot out. And also cooking, nothing beats a lovey homemade meal after a long day. Q: You have an EP coming out January 14th! Can you tell us what you have in store for us? Arin: Totally! So I’m very excited for this as this EP will be my first body of work out and for me it is a journey through my own exploration of emotions I’ve encountered in relationships. There’s 6 tracks in total so I’m excited to see how everyone reacts to the project and to see their favourites! Written By Kaitlyn Nicole FOLLOW ARIN:
- Interview: "Someone New" by Nicholas Joubert
Q: Can you tell us what 'Someone New' is about? Nicholas: I wrote Someone New after going through a breakup and navigating through all the emotions that goes along with it. It was very on and off at the time and this seesaw effect created a lot of mixed emotions. Managing the emotions almost seemed impossible at the stage, so I wrote down what I was going through - it was like my own personal therapy. I was in a very contemplating state of writing, and I did loads of self-reflection. Q: What was your favorite experience from filming the music video for 'Someone New'? Nicholas: The whole experience was a great learning curve for me and working with a great team who have such awesome energy really made this experience for me very memorable. I really enjoyed filming on set and feeling the excitement build to the actual release of the music video. I enjoyed learning choreography but I also realized I have two left feet, LOL. I need to work a lot harder to develop the skill. Q: What first got you into music? Nicholas: I've always had a passion for singing. When I was younger, I always sang myself to sleep, but that was mostly because I enjoyed singing. In primary school our choir teacher asked me to audition for our school choir. It was only towards the end of primary school that I considered pursing a career as a singer. By the time I was in high school, I was taking singing lessons to improve my voice. In 2020 I was scouted and presented with a great opportunity to live my dream. I was introduced to the right team to make my dream a reality. Q: What would you say is your favorite line in 'Someone New'? Nicholas: "You lied to me, so casually, do you lie to him too?" This is my favorite line because it is the ultimate reason that I've been kept for a fool. It's the eye opening point in the song. Q: Who are some of your biggest influences? Nicholas: Taylor Swift, Shawn Mendes, HRVY, and Michael Jackson. Q: What do you have in store for the future? Nicholas: I am planning to release more music in 2022 and to build on the success of my debut single. I really want to engage a lot more with my fans on social media. I'll be doing covers as well - I'm singing the songs on my own anyway so I thought maybe it's a good idea to show the world the music I like singing and what it sounds like when I sing it. It is a fun way to engage with fans and meeting new people. My website is also launching in 2022. Written By Kaitlyn Nicole FOLLOW NICHOLAS:
- Interview: "Always Almost" by Nicolette Capua
Q: I really admire your raw lyricism in 'Always Almost'. Can you tell us what the story behind the song is? Nicolette: 'Always Almost' is about feeling like you can never catch a break with things going wrong in your life. It's always one thing after the other. I feel like this is always happening in my life, just a nonstop cycle. Nothing can just stay consistently okay. I think this is something a lot of people can relate to where they are always almost there but never quite make it. You feel like you have to constantly fix who you are because something is always going wrong. Q: What would you say is your personal favorite part of 'Always Almost'? Nicolette: My favorite part of 'Always Almost' is the chorus because I love how I start singing the lyrics in a sarcastic way, such as when I say "Guess I gotta be dishonest, maybe make my body flawless, for everybody to believe, it's always almost stopping me." These lyrics are saying well if you can't accept me for who I am I guess I have to be untrue to who I am and change myself because just being me isn't enough apparently. Q: What is your songwriting process like? Nicolette: Before I start writing any song I always like to write down specific concepts that I have experiences in so I am able to be authentic and original in my lyrics. I then either create a melody off the top of my head or pull up a type beat of YouTube and create melodies based off that beat. I write to the beat and then sit down with my producer to make a new beat to the lyrics and melodies I created. And then it's time to record ;) Q: How do you think growing up in New York has influenced you and your music? Nicolette: I think growing up in New York has influenced me and my music a lot because of the wide diversity of sounds New York provides . Traveling from Staten Island to NYC everyday and experiencing different genres of music at my old high school (Professional Performing Arts Highschool) has really inspired me to add different elements in my own music and expand on my vocals in my recordings. New York is the best place to be as an artist because there's so many opportunities right in front of you to go out and show the world what you have to offer. Just bringing in New York gives you the extra push to chase your dreams because of all the hustle and hard working people there are here. Q: When did you know you wanted to become an artist? Nicolette: I knew when I was 9 years old that singing was my passion in life and that I needed to start taking it seriously because I truly enjoyed it and I wanted to just sing all the time for everyone. It's always just been music for me. I started taking professional vocal lessons at age 10 and never stopped from there on. I started singing classical music with my vocal coach because "classical vocal training is the best training for singing any genre of music." I then went on to singing in a church choir for a few years then went on to singing pop music and recording my original songs at Etstudioprodictions. I auditioned for PPAS where I studied vocal as well and now I am at NJCU majoring in Music Business. Being an independent female artist has always been what I aspired to be and I'm so grateful that I'm able to write, record, and perform my music in New York City. Q: If you were a song, what song would you be and why? Nicolette: If I was a song I'd be 'Fix You' by Coldplay. I have always loved this song because I feel like it represents my life. The song deals with wanting to always help someone, learning from your mistakes and being in love but not knowing how to express it. I feel like I'm always trying to help others instead of focusing on my problems and dealing with it myself. A line in the song says "stuck in reverse" like you're doing the best you can but at the end of the day you're not successful. Although there's always someone there wanting to help you even if you don't see it. Written By Kaitlyn Nicole FOLLOW NICOLETTE:
