Mae Mae Releases New Single and Video “Apple Boy”
Produced by Adam Castilla (of The Colourist), the songs on Gummy Heart Eyes highlights Mae Mae’s unconventional yet welcoming storytelling, zooming in on her distinctive charm blends into her pop appeal. Like her first single “Squishy” – which Consequence called “an easy, playful, sunny ode to a happy afternoon” that lies “somewhere between cutesy and dreamy” – “Apple Boy” reflects how her wide-eyed wonder and optimism collide with the world around her, so much so that the imagery and symbolism in the music on Gummy Heart Eyes were propelled by her actual hunger. She recalls, “I was on a juice cleanse at the time, so I would go to the studio super hungry and we would write about food. That’s the basis for a lot of this music.”
Alt-Country Rocker Wild The Coyote Releases Rugged New Single, “Under The Weather”
Wild the Coyote has just released his alt-country single “Under the Weather.” The song follows the story of a man trying his best to keep it together for his family, but can’t shake the troubles of drugs and alcohol that are tearing his family apart. “With this song, I was at the wrong place at the wrong time and witnessed a devastating argument between family over drugs and alcohol destroying their relationship. It was painful to see the destruction those two poisons can have on a relationship, especially when there are kids in the picture. I’ve had my share of troubled run-ins with alcohol, so I went and wrote a song that hurt me to the core,” explains Wild the Coyote. “Under the Weather” is the second single from his upcoming EP, 7 Roses, due out in 2022.
