American Dream Machine and Loveless Premiere Dopamine at Outburn

“‘Dopamine’ perfectly captures the frustration, confusion, and self-reflection that you go through while in the throes of depression. For me, it was the ending of a nine year relationship because she was cheating, and had been for the last four years. I was in an extremely dark place but, like always, music was the light at the end of the tunnel. I couldn’t be more proud of this song and all the hard work everyone put into it. The boys and I are honored to have a song with such amazing musicians as Loveless.” – Shawn Adams, American Dream Machine

Darren Hayes (Savage Garden) Releases “Homosexual,” First New Solo Album in 10 Years

Breaking away from the restraints and, as he describes, the ‘controlling image’ of a major label at the beginning of his career, Hayes’ path of self-discovery and reclamation of his truth has been one that fans have been able to see flourish in recent years. With Homosexual, Hayes is reclaiming a word that was used to shame and vilify. Now, fans and industry alike are introduced to the Darren Hayes who has always been there – yet here, he is at his most vulnerable, most engaging, and most vital. Through each of the 14 tracks on Homosexual, Hayes is in confession mode, revisiting his painful teenage years, examining his relationship to his sexuality and reclaiming the experience of surviving a violent childhood and bullying; ridding himself of shame through the lens of queer joy. There’s a deliberate nostalgic musical nod to the safety of the pre-2000’s dance floors and queer sub-cultures that were the soundtrack to his personal coming out story. It’s also a deeply personal insight into relationships at mid-life, set against a musical backdrop of synth wave and post-disco.

Amy Ray has released a new animated video for her Top 20 Americana Radio single, “Joy Train,” exclusively with Garden & Gun Magazine.

Ray enlisted a North Georgia artist, Julie Best, to provide the animation set against a rural background filmed near her home. Garden & Gun writes that the whimsical video is “a creation that’s uniquely Ray and uniquely Southern, with its driving Dobro guitar and lively fingerpicking set to an imaginative folk-art romp that will make you want to do as the narrator does at the end: ‘I open my window, spring is on the bloom… I’m jumping on that joy train, y’all make me some room.'”
