Raquel’s latest release ‘Dear Jesus’ is a song for everyone, the soul searcher, sinner, seeker, and all who have experienced the dark night of the soul - Raquel projects on an emotional level rarely found in the pop music scene. Raw and soulful, she pleas to feel the compassion of the universe. Kiarra soars as if on the wind with an undercurrent of soft jazz. This is a time of extreme isolation and loneliness. ‘Dear Jesus’ evokes the hunger for a sign that something larger than us can ease this pain of getting by in this life. The poetry alone weaves a tapestry of belief in the ultimate goodness of human companionship.

This timely spring release of ‘Dear Jesus’ brings a special message of assurance that hope can return.

Hope is what we all long for, and we ask….

Are you listening?
Do you hear me?
Do you care?

https://ffm.to/d9mwxxb

Rising Boston-based Pop singer/songwriter Gillian returns with her first single of 2021 via “burnout”. After releasing a slew of well received music last year, she’s starting off the new year strong and is gearing up to release a ton more music throughout the year.

Gillian treats her music as a conduit for truth. Whether behind the piano or with a guitar in hand, the Boston-based artist chronicles life’s ups and downs, ebbs and flows, and trials and tribulations with thoughtful clarity, poetic eloquence, and a stirring soulful voice. Documenting the dissolution of a relationship, confronting the pains of addiction, or facing loneliness, she confidently conveys unbridled emotion with wisdom that belies her 16 years of age.

Gillian made her introduction in 2019 with the independent release of her debut EP, Unfiltered. The lead single, “What It Felt Like,” impressively tallied 200K Spotify streams — no small feat for an unsigned act. 2020 is set to be another banner year for Gillian as she heads towards the release of her album, 3AM, due for release this Summer.

“From where to start and where to end for this blissful song? Wins your attention from the first milliseconds! The sound layering and atmosphere here is brilliant, Emily Coulston impressive vocal capabilities comes to give the secret spice of a wonderful recipe that has been cooked here. This is a memorable song, which invites you to listen again and again on repeat! ”

-Nagamag.com

The track had an unlikely birth. du0 tells the story: “The three of us were among nine musicians invited to attend AMPLIFY, QMusic’s Songwriting Retreat at Heliport Studios in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland in Queensland, Australia. It was amazing and incredibly hectic. We were rotated in groups of three and had to come up with a song from scratch, and produce and record it in 4 hours. We did this five times in three days.”

The result, Come Home, has had 1,107,000 streams on Spotify, but little radio play so far. And now the acoustic video is going off on YouTube. There may be something in this, we don’t know. Hopefully you can help us find out what it is.
