January 27, 2023 – London based, alternative rock artist CHAIDURA has released the official music video for his newest single, “With You.” Written & performed by the artist, “With You” was directed by CLARE CHONG.

“Through heart to heart conversations with my fans, I realize that life is getting more and more difficult these days for all of us. We are all struggling to survive and I share and feel all your pain. “With You” is a dedication to my fans who is going through a tough time and I want you to know that I’m with you” – CHAIDURA

Hailing from Singapore and currently based in London, Chaidura is an alternative rock artist with a penchant for creating fresh melodies, incorporating an amalgamation of various influences. Inspired by visual kei bands like Gazette, Dir En Grey, Lynch, alternative metal bands like BMTH & Bad Omens, Chaidura creates a unique sound that’s a blend of east and west. Chaidura also seems to have a unique innate competency to ingeniously present music in multiple styles, blending alternative rock with hints of electronic music, metal, rap, emo and goth, all while maintaining a consistent brand that is gothic, edgy and transcendent. 2023 is where Chaidura is going all in with a burning ambition to provide a safe space for his fans to express themselves through his music. Get ready for the Chaidura experience.

Releases New Single & Video Inspired by the Avatar Cinematic Universe
“The Beast Within”

December 12, 2022 – Inspired by blockbuster franchise Avatar, rising pop artist Maisy Kay has released her new single “The Beast Within,” a powerful, otherworldly anthem about recognizing your true potential, facing your fears, and becoming the strongest version of yourself. PRESS HERE to listen to “The Beast Within” and PRESS HERE to watch the breathtaking, fantastical video which sees Maisy step into a vibrant, rich world inspired by the Avatar cinematic universe to confront her demons and sing in both English and Na’vi, the fictional language from the blockbuster franchise.

Maisy wrote the song as part of a full album at the suggestion of Avatar director James Cameron himself, who was drawn to Maisy after she sang in the fictional Na’vi language from the film on the viral hit “The Storm.” She recorded “The Beast Within” at London’s famed Abbey Road Studios alongside a 92-piece orchestra that included contributors to the original Avatar film score, as well as conductor JAC Redford and engineer Simon Rhodes.

“I’d love to see people free themselves from what has been restricting them,” shares Maisy on the song’s message. “Embrace yourself and don’t hold back.”

Magnifying the most intimate emotions into songs that contain entire worlds, “The Beast Within” follows the release of her Halloween-inspired EP Psycho which drew upon Maisy’s love of horror movies to welcome standout singles “Psycho” and “Widowmaker.” Maisy also recently released singles “Emotionally Unavailable,” a maximalist synth-pop bop inspired by experiences dating in the digital world that alongside a campy, fun music video with a chilling twist that is equal parts Clueless and The Silence of the Lambs, and “Karma is a Bitch Like You,” a darkly explosive middle finger to anyone who has ever done you wrong, which followed a remix of “Scared Together.” With more music on the way, Maisy is perfecting the “sad banger” – pairing feel-good pop perfection with melancholy lyrics and hiding sadness just beneath her music’s danceable surface.

Working with industry titans such as Timbaland, Tiesto, Billy Idol, Rodney “Darkchild” Jenkins, and Max Martin protégé Lukas “LULOU” Loules, Maisy creates left-of-center pop that elegantly warps reality into something much more fantastical. Set to make her own distinct mark with her nostalgic, R&B-laced dance-pop, Maisy was plucked from obscurity for her talent and dropped in LA where she honed her craft and found her voice – going from English schoolgirl to LA songstress with over 100 million cumulative streams.

An artist with no limit to her radiant imagination, Maisy features on soundtracks to acclaimed video games like Lorelai and has sung in Latin, French, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese to relate to as many people from as many different backgrounds as possible while contributing spellbinding vocals and sharply poetic Japanese lyrics to pop artist Anly’s #1 Spotify viral hit “Distance.” Recently on the cover of Rollacoaster, Maisy has received acclaim from Wonderland, Interview Magazine, Flaunt, Hollywood Life, Popdust, Popmatters, Idolator, and more.

Announce New Forthcoming Album
hope is a cult
Out on February 17, 2023

Wednesday, December 14, 2022 – Swedish electropop-metal quartet Solence has dropped their latest music video “nuBlood” featuring Fame On Fire vocalist Bryan Kuznitz. Not only that, but fans can also look forward to the band’s forthcoming album ‘hope is a cult‘ set for release on Friday, February 17 (via Hopeless Records). Speaking on today’s news, the band shares:

“’NuBlood’ is a song about all the old dudes starting wars and oppressing people just to be able to cling on to their puny power! Just step aside. Your time is up. Out with the old, in with the new.

‘NuBlood’ is also a straight-up banger so hold on ‘cuz this chorus is like sticking your head out the window whilst driving 100mph on the freeway!!

“We’re also so extremely excited to finally be able to share ‘hope_is_a_cult’ with all the Solence family…and the not yet inaugurated ones!! We’ve worked so hard and so long on this and we truly feel like this is such an important step for us in our journey to write the most “Solence” of songs that we can write. This album goes up, down, sideways, then we solo for a bit, and then it’s head-banging and big choruses!

We’re super proud of this and hope you’re as excited as we are for ‘hope_is_a_cult’!!!”

hope is a cult
SOLENCE
Track Listing:

  1. Rain Down
  2. Best For You
  3. Demons
  4. Waves
  5. Antidote
  6. Claustrophobia
  7. hope is a cult
  8. Better This Way
  9. nuBlood
  10. Life Goes On
  11. Endless
  12. a new hope
  13. Blood Sweat Tears

No matter where we come from, music draws us together and bonds us. For as much as SOLENCE sonically conjoin elements of metal, electronic, alternative, and pop, the Swedish group also appeal to an expansive swath of personalities with a universal message. Equally suitable for the mosh pit or Coachella, the band—Markus Videsäter [vocals], David “Viking” Vikingsson [drums], David Strääf [guitar], and Johan Swärd [keys]—rally around a familial energy meant to be shared as loudly as possible. After quietly generating north of 200 million streams and counting, they welcome everyone closer on their third full-length offering and Hopeless Records debut, hope is a cult, and more to come.

“We want to build up this family around positivity, hope, and the belief you can change things,” notes Markus. “We want you to forget everything that bothers you when you listen to this album. If we’re doing our job, audiences feel like they’re a part of it. When you go to a SOLENCE show, you have a good time, so hope is a cult for us.”

From the Green Room Band of the Day-Darlin

0 0
Read Time:2 Minute, 26 Second

Thanks for taking some time to chat with From the Green Room

  1. What’s the name of the band?

We are called DARLIN

  1. Where are you from?

We’re an Essex based band, but a couple of the members are a bit spread out.

  1. What type of music do you play?

We describe our sound as Punchy, dual vocal pink powered pop rock.

  1. Introduce yourselves to the readers and tell us what you do in the band?

Collectively we are, Dan, Sarah, Simon, Rob, Joe and Dave. Dan and Sarah are husband and wife and both front the band. Si and Rob are guitars, Joe is Bass and Dave (me) on drums.

  1. This is probably a common question but one that most want to know, what musical influences did you have growing up, and what are some now?

The 6 of us have all brought in different influences, but the common ground that seems to prevail in the DARLIN sound is our mutual love for Fleetwood Mac and Paramore.

  1. Have you always been into music? Was it something that just came to you naturally?

Personally, I’ve been exposed to music from as early back as I can remember. All different artists and genres. I used to pull pots, pans, biscuit tins out of the cupboard, set them up on the floor and hit them chopsticks. I think it’s safe to say I was always destined to be a drummer.

  1. What can we expect from the band in the rest of 2022 and beyond into 2023?

For the rest of 2022 we’re ramping up to our 3rd single release, with a fourth on the way for early 2023. We’re getting ourselves ready for a busy summer of festivals and more studio time. We’re not slowing down anytime soon.

  1. For someone who wants to know more about the band, were can they find you at? And were can they find your music?

We’re on all the major socials, usually under thebanddarlin. The two singles we’ve released so far are on Spotify with videos on YouTube too. For a new band, there’s plenty of content to consume with plenty more on the way.

  1. Let’s answer some fun questions, what is your all time favorite band?

For me it’s Queen. Every era is perfect, every member irreplaceable. They’re like a supergroup without being a supergroup. Too many bangers!!!

  1. If you could tour with any band and open or have them open for you, who would you choose?

Right now I’d guess we’d all say Paramore. They’ve come back with a real retro Vibe/Sound and I think their fans would really be into us. Plus we all love them, so would be a joy to watch them every night.

Thanks for chatting with me From the Green Room and look forward to chatting again in the future.

Thanks for having us, we can’t wait to catch up again. Dave

Thanks for taking some time to chat with From the Green Room

  1. What’s the name of the band?

michael webster.

  1. Where are you from?

I’m based in Manchester, UK!

  1. What type of music do you play?

I usually describe my music as “folk-grunge”, a combination of old school songwriters and 90s alternative rock.

  1. Introduce yourselves to the readers and tell us what you do in the band?

I’m the main songwriter, guitarist and vocalist 🙂

  1. This is probably a common question but one that most want to know, what musical influences did you have growing up, and what are some now?

A lot of my influences growing up were 70’s rock, stuff like Bruce Springsteen and that – as well as modern emo music, but nowadays I listen to a huge range of music, from indie rock to pop to hip-hop to rnb, i’ll listen to whatever I enjoy really!

  1. Have you always been into music? Was it something that just came to you naturally?

I’ve played guitar since a young age, but when I was 17 I properly started taking it more seriously, writing songs and performing at open mics and gigs. I think really I did it as more of an escape from reality!

  1. What can we expect from the band in the rest of 2022 and beyond into 2023?

I’ve got an EP “a northern perspective” out on the Saturday 17th December, I’ve worked on it for the past 3 years and can’t wait for people to hear it. You can pre-save it at https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/michaelwebster/a-northern-perspective – can’t wait for it to be out. Got a lot of plans for next year too, not only my own music but even other projects I’m involved in too!

  1. For someone who wants to know more about the band, were can they find you at? And were can they find your music?

You can find me on most socials at @mchlwbstr or @michaaelwebstermusic – and I’m on all the streaming platforms under michael webster. You can find all my music and merch at www.michaelwebster.bandcamp.com too 🙂

  1. Let’s answer some fun questions, what is your all time favorite band?

I think I’d have to say Neil Young & Crazy Horse – their chemistry between the band is incredible, every album is fantastic and a great expression of their sound. Plus, Neil Young’s songwriting ability is huge – what an artist.

  1. If you could tour with any band and open or have them open for you, who would you choose?

I think I’d have to say Kurt Vile, he’s fantastic with some absolutely lovely albums under his belt. I’d definitely want to support him though, I can’t have him show me up opening hahaha.

Thanks for chatting with me From the Green Room and look forward to chatting again in the future.
