Critically acclaimed New Zealand born singer songwriter Jamie McDell releases her highly anticipated self-titled album today through ABC Music.

The enchanting artist recorded her fourth studio album in Nashville, teaming up with Nash Chambers in his eastside studio and drawing on the amazing musical talents of Dan Dugmore, Jedd Hughes, Dennis Crouch, Shawn Fichter, Jerry Roe, Jimmy Wallace, Tony Lucido and Ross Holmes, along with guests such as the McCrary Sisters, Robert Ellis, Erin Rae and Tom Busby.

Containing Jamie’s most brutally honest moments, in both writing and performance, this new long player features musicians and production that takes you on a modern journey through 70s folk and country, blended with a healthy dose of roots and rock.

"Limousine Running" was the most difficult to finish on the record. Says McDell, "the sentiment Nash, Phil and I had originally come up with began to become something I was losing connection with so we left it for awhile. We decided to record a band version and were so excited about the players performance and production that I knew I needed to find a story that was interesting to me."

There’s no shortage of legendary stories about songwriting duos: Lennon and McCartney, Simon and Garfunkel, King and Goffin…the list is immense, and each has their own quirks and twists. As the world entered a global pandemic in 2020, a songwriting partnership for a new era began to emerge: Kerenyi/Spears, an artistry partnership between songwriter Justin Kerenyi and producer, multi-instrumentalist, and singer Deke Spears.

The duo first teamed up in 2017 when Deke produced Justin’s first solo album, Silent Stars. Kerenyi, a lawyer by trade, always had an affinity for songwriting and had played in an Atlanta area band for nearly a decade. To make his lifelong dream of recording an album a reality, he turned to Deke. The two had previously met through work with the Songs for Kids Foundation, a music mentorship and interactive program organization for kids and young adults with illnesses, injuries, and disabilities.

Deke, an accomplished musician and producer in his own right, had spent nearly a decade performing and recording with the buzz-worthy Atlanta band, Quiet Hounds, when he relocated to a farm in Athens, GA in 2019. There, he began to construct his own studio, Magnetic Recording, from the ground up.

Having bonded over a shared affinity for well-curated music, as the pandemic became a reality, their friendship took on a new flavor. Justin approached Deke with an album concept in 2020 – bringing his songs to life through a variety of Atlanta-based artists and vocalists for a collaborative project.

In this virtual world, the duo worked together by video and email for about a year before having the opportunity to safely collaborate in person. The pair connected over very organic, wholesome aesthetics with inspirations ranging from classic ‘70s artists such as Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young; Jackson Browne; Bob Dylan; and The Beatles, to more modern artists that include Dawes, Ray LaMontagne, Tom Petty, and Elliott Smith. They also share a common interest in philosophical teachings of Buddhism, Eckart Tolle, and meditation, leading to songs that reflect themes of love and loss, mindfulness, and relinquishing ego.

Deke recorded vocals as a reference guide to inform the melodies and articulation of the arrangements. But soon, both found that those reference guides had a magic of their own and Justin encouraged Deke to keep his voice on the project. To fill in the gaps, Justin and Deke assembled an amazing cast of local Atlanta and Athens musicians to round out the sound … and soon, a unique collection of songs was

Kate Ellis – The Story You’ve Been Told (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Rock, The Latest|Tags: , , , , |

“its touching and delicate as feathers from the sweetest of birds. The lyrics are deep and have a natural flow to them. A track for ones who seek to be more and to make it through. Its energy is divine, and the artist involved in the instrumental execution are very skilled all around. ”

-Nagamag.com

The Story You've Been Told is the closing track from Kate Ellis' sophomore album ‘Spirals’ produced by John Reynolds (Sinéad O’Connor, Indigo Girls). The song encapsulates the album’s theme of how we go around in circles inside our heads getting lost in the maze of obstacles and pain we encounter in life – but it’s about getting out of these spirals of thought to a more peaceful place.

In Kate's words about this song: "We carry around stories about who we are, where we come from, what happened to us, and what it means. But it creates a false system of beliefs. The Story You’ve Been Told is about finding your way out of these thoughts that can possess you and memories and feelings that can trap you by realizing that the stories aren't true and can be discarded. Once we stop seeing our lives through a distorted prism, we are fine."

2021 Was A Stellar Year For Canadian Country Recording Artist Justin Fancy. From Releasing His Debut Album, Winning Music NL's Country Artist Of The Year And Rising Star Of The Year, And His First Top 50 Song On The Billboard Canadian Country Radio Charts, There Seems To Be No Stopping The Newfoundland-Based Artist.

Fancy steps up to the plate in a big way by delivering a defini-tive statement on never looking back on his newest single, the upbeat and uplifting “Beauty Queen.”

The first single from his forthcoming sophomore studio record to be released in Spring 2022, “Beauty Queen” sees Fancy take a closer look at a failed relationship. But rather than dwell on the past, Fancy instead feels empowered by the experience, resulting in him becoming a stronger, better person in the end.

“I’ve never been afraid of wearing my emotions on my sleeve,” says Justin. “Bad break-up songs might be cliché, especially in country music, but I see this song as a positive spin on a lesson learned. It’s the kind single that I’m confident my fans will be singing along to, while also understanding and embracing the meaning behind it.”

Already resonating with audiences and industry alike, one of the early indicators of the song’s strength has come in the form of an invitation from The Recording Academy for Justin to perform the single as part of their Press Play At Home concert series on Grammy.com, making him the first Canadian country recording artist to be invited to participate since its inception in 2018. Justin’s performance of “Beauty Queen” will air on The Recording Academy’s Youtube channel and Grammy.com on Thursday, October 28.

“When I heard I had been invited to perform “Beauty Queen” on Grammy.com I was absolutely floored,” says Justin. “My journey as a recording artist has been nothing short of amazing so far, and now I’m being given a unique opportunity to perform for a whole new audience south of the border and beyond. I’m looking at this as a huge stepping stone in my career."

Fancy’s debut album, Sure Beats A Good Time, debuted in the No. 3 position on Apple’s iTunes Canadian Country music chart. The record would go on to rack up more than a half-million streams across major streaming platforms. In addition to his single “Makes Me Wanna” peaking at #41 on the Billboard ra-dio charts and being played at over 70 radio stations across Canada, the song also hit #1 on the CBC/Sirius XM Canada Country chart.

Starting 2022 off with a bang, Justin has most recently been nominated for 3x East Coast Music Association (ECMA) Awards for Country Recording of The Year, Solo Recording of The Year, and Fans Choice Entertainer of The Year.

The Shadowboxers x Scott Tyler Schwartz – Young & Old (Spotify)

“Listen carefully to this charming song. Music falls like waterfall on your fragile shoulders, forcing to shudder from each word and beautiful performance. Cozy and pleasant single for your soul. Enjoy!”

“Послушайте внимательно то, о чём поётся в этой очаровательной песне. Музыка словно водопадом падает на ваши хрупкие плечи, заставляя содрогаться от каждого слова и красивого исполнения. Лёгкая и максимально приятная услада для вашей души. Наслаждайтесь!”

-Nagamag.com

Young & Old is a song for anyone who’s been at something for a while. Who’s been swimming and swimming - only to turn around and still see the shore. It’s a weird feeling when the number on the odometer is high, and you can point to the miles that have been traveled, and yet you’re not as far along as that distance would suggest. It’ll make you question your measuring system, and certainly your route, and you’ll wonder what you have to show for all that time you’ve spent plugging away.
