Country Rocker Cameron DuBois Shows Softer Side With Gut-Punch Country Ballad “Let Him Miss Me”
Country rock singer-songwriter Cameron DuBois returns with “Let Him Miss Me,” her soulful and riveting new country ballad available now across all major digital music and streaming platforms [linktr.ee/CameronDuBois]. Originally written by hit songwriter Jimmy Yeary (Rascal Flatts, Joe Diffie, Martina McBride), and recorded at Skaggs Place Studio just outside of Nashville, this melodic tune shows Cameron’s softer side, standing out among the rising star’s diverse song catalog. The Montgomery, Alabama native is also introducing “Let Him Miss Me” to the 650 AM WSM audience as the current featured Artist Spotlight this week: wsmradio.com/wsm-artist-spotlight. ”Let Him Miss Me” tells the story of being in love with someone who didn’t initially put you first, and who now wants you back. However, before taking them back, you want them to understand the same feeling you felt when they left. “What I learned from this song is understanding your own independent worth first, no matter how much it hurts,” DuBois said. “It is so easy to appear strong and independent to the public’s eye, even though you may be hurting deep down inside. What I love about this ballad is it paints the picture of being emotionally strong and weak at the same time. You understand everything Yeary was feeling when he wrote it.” Single Name: “Let Him Miss Me” Release date: February 15, 2021 Label / Distribution: PCG Artist Development / DistroKid Songwriter: Jimmie Yeary ISRC#: QZFZ62110062 Audio Produced by: Michael Curtis Buy/Stream/Listen at linktr.ee/CameronDuBois Official Lyric Video: youtu.be/OVwoEDk5Kts DSP Embedded Codes: […]

Indie-pop artist, Payson Lewis, gets nostalgic in his new single “Only Yesterday.” As the world continually changes, it can be easy to focus on gloom over memories that remind you of better days. “In the wake of the end of something good, there are constant reminders. Anything can be a trigger into your past,” explains Lewis. “Only Yesterday” is available for download and streaming on digital music platforms worldwide. Written by Payson Lewis and Tom Zmuda, the song leads in with a welcoming guitar strum played by Erik Carlson and Adam Tressler to set the tone accompanied by Lewis’ passionate voice. With funky basslines and melodies, the pulse of nostalgia pumps through the song. His heartfelt lyrics tell a story of filling the void of emptiness from your past to start over and create a new normal. “It is so easy to get consumed in nostalgia and wallow in that despair. It’s not until there’s a new beginning that the past finally begins to relent,” says Lewis. As hard as it is to move past old memories that are housed in us, starting over and letting the future takeover isn’t as scary as it could be. “Only Yesterday” was recorded and mixed by Ben Soldate and mastered by Eric Boulanger at The Bakery Mastering.

JameiciaJ Brings The Heat In Winter With New Single + Video “Jameicia”
Minnesota native JameiciaJ released her latest hip-hop/pop single “Jameicia”. This project comes as the first single to follow up the release of her debut EP “Hip-Pop.” Growing up shy, Jameicia was unsure if she would ever find the confidence to record music. She kept her head down and continued to write poetry, until she finally saved up the funds and determination to get in the booth. Now, with the confidence, lyrics, and swagger consistent with traditional hip-hop, and the melodies and personality of a popstar, the influence of icons like Rihanna and Brandy are tangible in JameiciaJ’s work. As an independent artist, JameiciaJ is still testing the water and finding her sound, but it’s evident that she has grown more confident in her sound—a powerful balance of hip-hop and pop—since the release of her EP, sliding comfortably into the niche of hip-pop that she has carved for herself. “Jameicia” is a pivotal track for the artist—with a beat that she knew would pop off from the second she heard it—it embodies exactly who she is and aims to be as an artist: bold, fresh, and authentic. The self-titled track reflects exactly what we can hope to see from Jameicia going forward—confident lyricism, hard-hitting beats, and an authentic, dedicated artist that stays true to her roots and stays repping her hometown of Minneapolis, MN.

Amiena Releases Electrifying New Single “Halo”
International alt-pop artist, Amiena, dropped her new single “Halo,” a clever song about hypocrisy. In a world where it can be easy to blend in, she is not afraid to stand out and mix a blend of genres, powerhouse vocals, and unique storytelling. “Halo” is available to download and stream on digital music platforms worldwide. Diving into her personal experiences, the song’s storytelling mocks hypocrisy with snarky lyrics and reality checks. Lyrics such as “Go print more cash before you run out of ink” and “Just stage more pics for all to see'' tackle the need for constant validation in an ironic way. With a daring beat combined with the sassy, warm tone of Amiena’s voice, “Halo” is a bold anthem that deserves a spot among the heavy-hitters of the alternative-pop genre. Amiena teamed up with two-time Emmy winner Lars Deutsch to bring the single to life, resulting in a bold and bombastic sound bound to make the floor shake. “Halo,” written by Amiena and Deutsch, was the result of a discussion about the shows they had recently seen, Messiah on Netflix and Gemstones on HBO. “It is about how people blindly follow others, the constant need to be liked and how we create a facade,” explains Amiena. “Basically, we miss out on real life trying to be someone else.” With flashing synths and hard beats, the music is the perfect counterpoint to the lyrics. The song was mixed by multi-platinum winner, Irko (Mac Miller, Sia, Jay Z) and mastered by Gene Grimaldi at Oasis Mastering. Amiena is an internationally recognized […]

Joel Ansett Brings Unseen Pain To Light in New Single “Just Fine”
Denver artist Joel Ansett is returning with the release of “Just Fine” on February 5th. Fresh off the release of his single “Ease” which premiered in American Songwriter, Ansett is again blending genres of folk, pop, and R&B to create a thoughtful single that touches on the topic of unseen pain and suffering. Premiering on Where The Music Meets and praised for his “brilliant composition”, the single was inspired by a friend who was walking through chronic pain. “We would get together and they would look completely healthy and happy, and then they would share that at that moment they're dealing with a level 7 or 8 pain… Unseen pain,” says Ansett. “I'm sitting right across from them and without them sharing that, I would have had no idea.” Ansett goes on to explain after experiencing several other stories in a similar fashion, he drew a connection to the sickness of depression and how that pain is also very unseen. Incorporating this idea into the lyrics, “Nobody can see this fight I’m fighting now - When it’s all inside - And ‘you look just fine’” Ansett also found symbolism in the sounds being recorded. “Sonically, the feel-good hip hop beat represents the surface level appearance of things going well and life being good, and the slightly atonal bass loop underneath represents the unseen pain,” says Ansett. Hailed as a “songwriter to watch” from The Huffington Post, Ansett showcases his thoughtful songwriting and unique voice that continues to win fans. With […]

Mike Kuster Releases “The COVID Floor”
When the COVID-19 pandemic shut down most of the world, Mike Kuster's wife, Emily, was assigned to the COVID Unit at their local hospital in Frederick, Maryland. The horrors that Emily, a Registered Nurse, witnessed and the stress it caused her and her co-workers took a toll that Mike says "our children and I had to witness from six feet a way and through a mask." "After a few weeks of this nightmare, I wrote “The COVID Floor” while sitting in my den." After playing it for their daughter, she insisted that Mike share it. So, he played it for another singer songwriter friend who also insisted that he share it. So, Mike grabbed his guitar and recorded an acoustic version sitting in his den and shared the video social media. "That's the best I could do at the time, because we were all locked down," Mike explains. The response was overwhelming. He was getting messages and phone calls from people he had not talked to in years. His sister, who is also a nurse, called to tell him that the song had her in tears. As things seemed to be getting better with the pandemic, Mike called on some musicians in Nashville. We got together virtually and recorded a studio version of the song. Chris Condon brought his talent on the acoustic and electric guitar. Caleb Mundy plays bass guitar. Dr. Ford performs keyboards and drums. Gary Carter, a fellow Maryland native, plays pedal steel guitar. "It is such […]

HENRIETTE Releases Emotional Homage To Father With Country Single “Remember That”
At the beginning of the Christmas season HENRIETTE starts her new cycle in the middle of the global pandemic, which she experiences as a creatively enriching time against all odds, with the acoustic ballad “Remember That”, to be released today on December 2nd, 2020, via Dr. Music Records and is probably her most personal song so far. A few months after the release of her first self-titled EP, celebrated by press and fans alike, the Country Pop vocalist commemorates her father, who passed away on Christmas 2017, and dedicates to him an emotionally melancholic homage with her new single “Remember That”. His musical affinity inspired her since childhood and ultimately led her to study music in Leipzig. Very attached to music, he always used to say: «Honey, no matter how bad things are and how sad you feel, sing! Afterward, the world will be better! » After he was gone, this message got stuck in her head like glue. When she told former Kacey Musgraves pedal steel player Adam Ollendorff (Katy Perry, Willy Nelson, Carrie Underwood) about it during their first songwriting session, they both decided to give this message its very own spot. “Remember That” tells the story about a very special love between father and daughter. It’s about childhood comfort, growing up, the high and lows, remembering and, most important, about letting go. Just the right song for a contemplative Christmas, which invites you with its video to a cozy trip into HENRIETTE’s past: https://youtu.be/b5W0zy_13Gw HENRIETTE’s new Country […]
