standards release “Special Berry”
Fruit Island’s lead single “Special Berry” blends simplicity and complexity into an infectious jaunt of nimble fingertapping and agile drumming. Guitarist Marcos Mena’s expertise is the song’s focal point, with energetic melodies contorted to drummer Forrest Rice’s bouncy ferocity.

I’M A BAD PERSON includes exclusive features from NoCap and TisaKorean, alongside the recently released tracks, “Tracktor” and “Different,” both accompanied by equally compelling companion visuals. The latter premiered via The FADER, which wrote, “(Xanman) begins with a melodic croon that quickly turns into a gnarled flow. It’s this flexibility that allows him to be threatening and vulnerable at the same time.” “Produced by WhoisMike, ‘Different’ is led by a lush arrangement of pan flute notes, vibrant synths and heavy bass drums,” added HYPEBEAST. “Xanman comes through with melodic vocals that blend seamlessly with the groove of the instrumentals.”
ARLISSA DROPS NEW SINGLE “HEALING,”
“I wrote ‘Healing’ after I saw this quote ‘if you don’t heal yourself, you’ll bleed all over the ones that didn’t cut you.’ It made me really take a step back and address certain aspects of my life; to stop losing myself in other people and really discover who I am. I know we’re going through maddening and worrisome times. But it’s these periods in life where we love more and are present for the people who need us. When we finally start to heal, I hope we continue to love and support each other in the same way.” – Arlissa

GLENN THOMAS UNVEILS STEINBECK-INSPIRED SINGLE “CATHERINE AMES”
Nashville-by-way-of-New England singer/songwriter Glenn Thomas has unveiled the latest single from his forthcoming LP Reassure Me There’s A Window, out May 15th via Palace Flophouse Records. “Catherine Ames,” a much-needed slice of catharsis and sonic sunshine, inspired by Cathy Ames, the antagonist of John Steinbeck’s East Of Eden. “She’s pretty evil and causes a lot of pain for the main character,” Thomas explained to Americana-UK in its premiere of the track. “This song is about holding on to pain and anger as though they are part of your identity. Forgiveness is not the same as forgetting, and as with any kind of healing and moving forward, it takes time.” When Thomas realized he had let go of something from his past that had been a painful burden for years, he wrote “Catherine Ames” to embody the purifying effect from relief he experienced, using a character name from one of his favorite authors given the similar and relatable themes of resolution and moving forward in East Of Eden. Americana-UK called Thomas’s new single is “a gently reflective song which concentrates on the healing virtues of time – and how pain has made him a better, more resilient, person.”
