ELLEY DUHÉ RELEASES NEW SINGLE “LOST MY MIND” FROM HER FORTHCOMING DEBUT EP
On the release of “LOST MY MIND” Elley says: “‘Lost My Mind’ is about human connection. In the song, I’m pleading to the outside world and people in my life to not abandon me or think less of me because I may be going through a dark period. The point I’m trying to get across in the song is that something as simple as having compassion for someone is important even if you don’t understand what they’re going through.”

All-star group featuring Noah Gunderson, Matthew Logan Vasquez and others release new song; announce tour
Glorietta was born out of Delta Spirit main man Matthew Logan Vasquez’s desire to collaborate with some of his closest musical friends, among them Noah Gundersen, Kelsey Wilson, David Ramirez, Jason Robert Blum, and GRAMMY® Award-winner Adrian Quesada. The band officially came together last year over the course of a nine-day recording session in a rented house in Glorieta, NM, just outside of Santa Fe. With Vasquez as the hub, all involved were connected in one way or another, some old friends, others meeting for the very first time. For nine long days, tape ran constantly as the new family of collaborators developed a wide-ranging passel of creative ideas and songs into a unique and singular vision. The players were joined midway through the sessions by the one and only Nathaniel Rateliff, who drove straight through the night to join the party (and lend vocals to the LP’s “I Know”). The result of their labor is GLORIETTA, an extraordinary melding of six one-of-a-kind voices that add up to a distinctive and truly special debut album.

“‘Skipping Stones’ is a song about feeling lost in life and upset with the state of things,” said Dan Reynolds (lead vocalist of Imagine Dragons). “I wrote it for the film to convey my feelings about the state of things within my community and a desire for change. Working with Hans Zimmer on the song was truly a dream realized. He is a musical genius and even more importantly a powerful, humble and gentle man.

Human Touch Share “Living Young” Track On The 405
The 405 has shared Human Touch’s new single “Living Young”. When talking about the track singer Natalia Rogovin says “I wrote this song when I was facing a choice between ‘settling down’ and living a life that is more in the box or continuing to seek new experiences and adventure, I rebel when people equate being an adult with giving up mystery and the possibility of the moment and drifting into a routine of known quantities. I never want to give up the mystery up. Writing ‘Living Young’ helped me remember that.” Human Touch’s hit song “Promise Not To Fall” has risen into the Global and US Viral Top Ten on Spotify. The track has over 3.5 million streams on Spotify, over 3 million on YouTube, and was recently featured on the hit show ’13 Reasons Why’. Human Touch’s debut LP ‘Promise Not To Fall’ is out 9/7.
Liz Cooper & The Stampede’s “Hey Man” video debuts at NPR Music/WXPN’s World Café
Directed by Anna Zorn, a graduate of both the writing and improvisation programs at Chicago’s Second City, the video stars 11-year old Madysen Reilly. Of her performance, NPR Music/WXPN World Café praises, “The daughter, marvelously played by 11-year-old Madysen Reilly in her first on-screen role, pops a cassette of ‘Hey Man’ into her cassette player and proceeds to rock out and live out her rock and roll fantasy. Playing air guitar, lip-syncing into her hairbrush microphone and jumping around her room, the downstairs perfection comes completely unhinged as mom and her friends succumb to the music and the energy coming from the floor above. Someone’s bra comes off, cakes are smashed, donuts are stuffed into mouths, and everyone proceeds to get wild. It’s the ultimate twist to a rock and roll tale.”
