Symphonic and Digital Promotions Group announce the release of rising pop singer-songwriter Jessica Carter Altman’s new single “Lucky One.” Altman, who is currently putting the finishing touches on a new EP, For You, the follow-up to her debut No Rules, is sharing a heartfelt ballad dedicated to her father. This first single is perhaps the most deeply personal song to date in her repertoire—it’s a gorgeously uplifting acoustic ballad that pays homage to the strength and inspiration her father instilled in her.

The song was written by Carter Altman and Palmer Lee and produced by Jason Lehning.

Carter Altman notes: “I wrote the first track, ‘Lucky One,’ early in the pandemic. My father would always talk about how lucky he felt to have my brother and me as his children. This song was my response – that we were the lucky ones to have such a wonderful and caring father. And with the help of Jason Lehning, Jordan Lehning, Todd Lombardo, Viktor Kraus and my co-writer Palmer Lee, I was able to record and give it to him just before his passing.”

Though her lyrics are very personal, they touch universal chords that countless others can relate to having lived through the devastating losses and dramatic life alterations in the wake of the pandemic. It touches on both Robert’s selfless commitment to helping so many people in his life and the view that at the end of the day, the only things that matter in life are family and friends.

ABOUT JESSICA CARTER ALTMAN

Jessica Carter Altman finds a graceful sweet spot between raw emotional power and intimate subtlety on her upcoming three track EP For You, an acoustic project featuring three beautiful and heartfelt original songs inspired by and dedicated to her father Robert A. Altman, a prominent D.C lawyer and businessman.

Considering her admiration for her dad, it made perfect sense for Jessica to follow in his footsteps and that of his side of the family, many of which also went to law school. Her mom is the iconic Lynda Carter, and there was naturally a strong feminine role model throughout her childhood inspiring her to do whatever she set her mind to. She decided to go to law school because she believed it would give her the knowledge and experience to pursue whatever she wanted.

Understanding Jessica’s childhood passion for music is another key to understanding just why, despite her profound respect for the legal profession, she had to shift gears and pursue her career full time. Her dedication to her songwriting continued throughout the pandemic, working on new music with Jason Lehning, Palmer Lee, Latifah Alattas, and Jabe Beyer.

Jillian Antinora – Lighthouse
(Video)

“Inspired by the endless value of friendship, this fresh single sheds light in the darkness sarounding us. The artist opens her heart to all important persons via her soulful voice and Acoustic guitar melodies which can directly envelop each listener.”

-Nagamag.com

Jillian Lee Antinora’s “Lighthouse” is a tender ode to friendship. Utilizing her acoustic guitar to create the mellow and inviting atmosphere which is characteristic to her music, the singer-songwriter conjures up warmth and gratitude. “This is a song I wrote for my best friends. I have really needed them over the past couple of years,” she explains. Using the metaphor of a lighthouse, Antinora paints a vivid picture of what it’s like to be like a lost boat that eventually finds hope outside of the darkness with a lighthouse. “You never criticize, you can cut through all the lights,” she sings, “the world tells us our truth, I’m so thankful for you.”

With acoustic-folk and the sweet envelopment of the cello, Antinora brings a depth of emotion to “Lighthouse.” Thanking God for her friends and demonstrating the strength of the female bond, Antinora explores the beauty of relationships and emphasizes their importance. “I wrote it to let them know how much they mean to me,” she says. “I have appreciated good friendships more and more as I have gotten older. Friends who listen, relate and help guide me through the struggles of life.”

Finding the sweet spot between alt-R&B and pop, Nykki co-wrote ‘Right Place Wrong Guy’ with producer John Foyle, known for his work with Mae Muller and Lola Young and St£fan – aka Stefan Abingdon – whose major pop cuts include, among others, a single for Selena Gomez. The swaggering earworm blooms over sludgy, savage basslines, jittery swarms of drum programming, with plenty of room to play around with texture and Nykki’s layered vocals. Piercing and empowering lyrics see Nykki oozing confidence while reflecting on a relationship destined to fail.

“You can pretty much already see its end and you are finally being honest with yourself, which can be empowering,” explains Nykki, talking about the meaning behind the song. “I naturally always want to see the best in every situation. This is about that time when I just finally admitted it’s not gonna work and that’s also okay. I can only do serious relationships, that’s just how I’m built, so sorry not sorry to every guy who just wants to have fun!”

Diving deeper into the writing and production process Nykki adds; “I wanted to write something darker and a bit sexy. We started writing the lyrics around a few ideas I had in my phone. The song’s title started as a joke. I said ‘I think it was a right place wrong time situation’ and John said ‘yeah more like wrong guy’, and that’s how it happend. I wanted to make sure this was a savage song, not sad, but very powerful and almost making fun of the situation”.

Songwriting has been a life saving tool for Nykki, at the high of the pandemic she connected with producers and co-writers all over the world, these transatlantic online sessions resulted in last year’s single ‘Me Over You’ written with Salt Ashes’ collaborators, British writing and production duo The Radiators, which has seen support from fashion and music publications such as Metal Magazine and Mundane Magazine, among others.

“Showing the extent of her range with every release”, as written by Wonderland Magazine for their ‘New Noise’ feature, Nykki has rolled out a string of bops which marked her as a newcomer to watch. Debut single ‘No Cry’ catapulted the Czech-born artist into the international pop world, with Billboard praising her “commanding vocals” and giving their seal of approval to her debut video, which has now clocked up over 1 million YouTube plays, since premiering on the world’s most influential music media brand. Whilst the single’s remix by Leon Lour peaked in the UK Commercial Pop Top 30 Club Charts at number 13. In her follow up single ‘Lost My Mind’, Nykki showed her good girl turned bad persona through the convincing acted scenes and dynamic choreographed shots of the track’s video, which has now reached nearly 1.5 million YouTube views. Eloquently acclaimed by Rollacoaster Magazine for her “emotionally tinged, energetic pop songs that boast undeniably catchy hooks,” Nykki graced the pages of the magazine’s latest Spring/Summer issue, before going back into the studio. While the stripped down versions of her EDM-laced pop songs have been praised for their “glossy dynamics” by one of the world’s foremost authority on pop music authority on pop music Popdust.

With ‘Right Place Wrong Guy’ Nykki claims her artistic space, showing confidence stepping into new musical terrains, and the ability to turn any personal life story into a captivating song.

Beau – Even If You’re Gone
(Video)

“An interesting intro on this piece takes us by surprise as the powerful and delightful sounds build. There is life after the incident, the process will continue. We really enjoyed artful approach and were quiet impressed with immaculate build up that really knows how to express power. ”

-Nagamag.com

“Even If You’re Gone” is an emotional ode to heartbreak and longing. Lead singer Heather Goldin’s vocals personify the feelings of maintaining a connection with a person that has been lost to another. The instrumentals in the song ebb and flow between soaring choruses and softer, more reserved breaks, reflecting the rollercoaster of feelings a person may go through when heartbroken.

Beau says, “‘Even If You’re Gone’ is a song about losing the one you love to someone else. The song is about holding on and that even if the love of your life has found someone else, you can’t help but stay connected. This song is that connection.”

The video for “Even If You’re Gone” is a dramatic short film that, though created separately from the song, is perfectly soundtracked by the powerful new single in perfect compliment to one another. The story portrays the stress of a robbery and an illustration of dealing with deep grief, parallel to the song’s theme of missing someone you love.

Gillian Stone – Amends

Gillian Stone – Amends
(Video)

“A story of memories set to an externalized battle of emotions and thoughts of distant connections. The hypnotic guitar takes us away as she explains her story. A great build up occurs and is well paced through the piece. Magnetically climaxing and releasing us within. ”

-Nagamag.com

Artist said about this release:

“Amends” is a vocally-driven post-rock/drone-folk song that explores self-mercy and accountability after an era of Anger, the second stage of grief. It is a nod to what I’ve learned through years of therapy about the power of naming. It is a fearless moral inventory, an understanding of the effect on self and other, an odyssey through four and five of The Twelve Steps. My recovery journey has been riddled with shame that still lives in my bones. The final line of the song, “regret is a wily muse, but I’ll name it out loud”, is an attempt to exorcize this shame from my body. By acknowledging the ruins of my Anger, I am attempting to destroy the destroyer.

I co-produced “Amends” with experimental e-cellist and multi-instrumentalist Michael Peter Olsen (Zoon, The Hidden Cameras, Arcade Fire), who I worked with on my two previous singles, “Bridges” and “Shelf”. When we recorded “Amends” I was experimenting with fingerpicking while holding the whammy bar on my Stratocaster while simultaneously running it through tape delay. I wanted to keep the song in a warbled state that challenged tempered tuning. We played with vintage synth layers: an ARP 2600 drone, MOOG bass, Arp Odyssey and Yamaha TX81Z ascending lines. The song hovers above the ground until the drums, played by Spencer Cole (Weaves), come in over halfway through. “Amends” was constructed in layers and steps, building from a gentle confession to a chaotic declaration.

The video for “Amends” was directed by Toronto filmmaker John M. Hall and me, with photography by Hall and Toronto photographer Joel Gale. It is a movement piece that conveys my body in fragments, drawing from the concept of the Split Self in Internal Family Systems. It builds into a cathartic somatic experience as I dance to fuse myself back together.

Moemaw Naedon & C.Scott – Awesome Environment

Moemaw Naedon & C.Scott – Awesome Environment
(Video)

“In the new HIP-Hop track -moema naedon & c.scott is a rather diverse bit that merges into a single palette of mix sounds. Pleasant by ear overflow of synthesizers, pulsations of deep bass and just chic work on vocals and text!” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)

“В новым Hip-Hop треке -Moemaw Naedon & C.Scott- довольно разнообразный бит, который сливается в единую палитру звуков микса. Приятные на слух переливы синтезаторов, пульсации глубоких басов и просто шикарная работа над вокалом и текстом!”

-Nagamag.com

In their slick new video for “Awesome Environment,” Moemaw Naedon & C.Scott embrace the sunny, laidback summer vibes that inspired their collaborative album, River Rats, and provide a guided tour of some of Pittsburgh’s river banks.

What may not look like much to the every-day viewer was a true source of inspiration, meditation, and comfort for the duo, as explained by Moemaw himself. He and C.Scott would meet up during the summer of 2020 for riverside hangs that served as an escape from the harsh realities of the world.

“We were previewing each other’s new music from a Bluetooth speaker, sipping our favorite canned beverages, passing the smoke, and discussing the real-life situations that shaped the lyrical content on River Rats,” Moemaw said. “That’s what makes it an ‘Awesome Environment.’”

It was a bastion of both hope and creativity for the two artists, who found solace on the shores of rivers at a time when the country was consistently on fire. And it serves as a welcome reminder that sometimes, even when it seems counterintuitive, your best bet for sanity is to head outside and enjoy your surroundings. We all have our own awesome environment; it may just take some trial and error for you to find it.

Check out the visuals and head over to your preferred DSP to stream through your preferred platform. The album is also available on cassette in limited quantities via Soul Slime Records’ Bandcamp profile.
