Sometimes, if you want to live the dream, you need to let the dream come to you. Just ask composer Rob Simonsen, who began playing the piano at a young age, picking out melodies he heard in his parents’ record collection, before he began composing for himself. “I daydreamed a lot when I was young,” he remembers. “I’d sit at the piano, and it was very much about escape: letting my mind wander, exploring.”
Cecily Releases New EP, Awakening Pt. 1
Award-winning recording artist Cecily (Harmonius Grits, LLC), releases her 5-track EP, Awakening Pt.1, recently named Best New Soul by Bandcamp Daily, who said, “Her top-notch songwriting blends thoughtful self-reflection with a gentle, jazz-influenced sound.”
Cecily says, “Awakening Pt. 1 is the story of my awakening to Love – of learning to work on myself so I don’t unintentionally hurt my loved ones, of learning to forgive myself so I can love myself without condition, of surrendering to the beautiful flow of love in my life. These are stories of learning how to choose trust, patience, compassion, honesty, and kindness. These are stories of choosing love over fear, and I hope these songs serve as a reminder to my listeners to do the same.”

“The band’s Ewan C. Grant now is making music as Charrette and it’s about as far from WOMPS’ Pixies/Nirvana-influenced indie rock as can be imagined. “Only You” is atmospheric, mellow pop, heavy on synths and a smoky blue-eyed-soul vibe.”
