SYML Hits The Road With Dermot Kennedy; Gives The Middle Finger To Cancer With New Track “Flags”
As with millions of people around the world, cancer is personal for Seattle-based artist and producer SYML aka Brian Fennell. While supporting loved ones’ battles with the disease, he dealt with his anguish the best way he knew how, through his music. The result is the heartbreaking and delicately beautiful “Flags.”
Fennell explained, “I struggle with things that seem supernatural but are actually very natural. Cancer is one of those natural things. Nature is undiscerning and unforgiving. Cancer is raw and shapes the landscape of our lives. The metaphors run deep but they don’t make mourning someone any less painful, especially before they leave us. I wrote ‘Flags,’ like I write many of my songs, as a form of therapy to deal with people in my life who have battled cancer. The song is from the perspective of the body experiencing cancer. We meet pain and hopelessness with community and fight, and the fight is meaningful.

Brandy Clark’s “Your Life is a Record” out March 6 on Warner Records
Of the song, Clark shares, “The seed of the song came from something that John Prine said a couple of years ago at the Americana Awards. He walked out onstage at the Ryman and everyone stood up and clapped for what felt like five minutes. When everyone sat down, he said with a little laugh, ‘Well, I’m John Prine, but I’d like to go back to being who you thought I was.’ Man…that hit me. The songwriter in me instantly knew it was a song and the heart in me knew it was how I had felt in my own life many times. I mean who of us hasn’t let somebody down or wanted to be the version of ourselves that someone who loved us thought we were?”
Blues Rock Guitarist Albert Cummings Releases New Song “Queen of Mean”
“‘Queen of Mean’ was inspired by people that were in my life that weren’t particularly nice to me. I put the song together to answer the call of the way they made me feel, which is why you should never make a songwriter angry,” Cummings jokes, “It’s not actually an angry song at all. It’s just a way to poke fun at the situation. Everyone has come across a ‘Queen of Mean’ in their life!”
Alex Dowling Shares New Single “In Silence, In Cold”
Irish composer and producer Alex Dowling today shared “In Silence, In Cold”, the second single and video from his forthcoming album Realty Rounds, which was written for four vocalists (who each use customized wireless controllers to manipulate their AutoTuned voices in real-time) and synthesizer (performed by Grammy-nominated composer/pianist Pascal Le Bouef). The new preview, as Dowling explains, “is a simple hymn about the fear of isolation and the need for new information. The choir sits around a digital fire, enhancing the sense of solitude and contemplation. As they perform, the singers manipulate how much AutoTune they have on their voices, exposing their natural voice with all its imperfections as though lifting a veil – a reminder of the human fragility behind these digital enhancements.”

“Isohel’s are lines on a weather map that connect all the areas that receive equal sunlight,” EDEN explains. “Light and sunlight have been an odd obsession for me since I was a teenager; I’ve always felt like I was moving toward some unreachable horizon. The song ‘isohel’ is about wishing the best for the people you’ve left behind but knowing that you’re probably better off where you are now.”
