Ripsime – Tell me the lie (Video)

“A break-up song, one of my personal favorites from my own catalogue, written ten years ago after a love gone sour, finally resurrected for my “lockdown-album” A Most Present Absence.

Matthew Steven Whitaker – 4th of July (Spotify)
“Music as nothing else in this world absorbs all that surrounds us. In such works where guitars are so naturally and harmoniously revealed, the singer's voice and the good atmosphere of Neofolk, create a certain and unforgettable mood.”
“Музыка как ничто другое в этом мире впитывает в себя всё то, что окружает нас. Подобные произведения, в которых так естественно и гармонично раскрываются гитары, искренний голос вокалиста и добрая атмосфера neofolk, создают определённое и незабываемое настроение.”
-Nagamag.com
Artist shared few words about this song:
"This is me channeling extreme heartbreak into a song. I went through a breakup on the 4th of July. After a year or so with only the verses, I wrote the chorus while going through another tragic breakup. Sad songs seem to come about easier than happy ones. I tend to think it’s because music is a great outlet to channel our sadness. Yet, happiness needs no outlet." - Matthew Steven Whitaker

Her one-of-a-kind life experience shaped her unique perspective on songwriting and storytelling that reverberates through every lyric. Andrea Plamondon is a multi-genre artist at heart, from experimenting with pop, rock, and psychedelic music while jamming out in bands to performing exotic middle eastern music and channeling booming vocals during her operatic training.

Every voice has a story to tell. For Sharon Hendrix, it’s a whirlwind tale of passion, thrill, and adventure. Her musical career has spanned five decades from post-Beatles pop to modern-day contemporary music. When it comes to the industry, she’s done at all. From working closely with Hall of Famers such as Bob Dylan, Elton John, and Stevie Wonder to pioneering new genres with Olivia Newton-John, Billy Cobham, and Dusty Springfield. In 1978, she toured with Barry Manilow and duetted with him on his popular 1985 rendition of “Ain’t Nothing Like The Real Thing.” Now, Sharon Hendrix is exploring her own sound in her solo act that’s nothing short of sensational.
There’s nothing better than feeling the warmth and safety of being held in the arms of someone you love. In Sharon Hendrix’s latest track, “Hold Me Tight,” she captures that rush of emotions through her sweet, honey-like vocals that are filled with richness and intention. Through her years of live performing and studio work with superstar artists she’s managed to find the balance of delicate, airy vocals that have the power to hold emotional weight. The smooth, groovy instrumentals set a relaxed atmosphere that gently caresses you and keeps you grounded. The music video is zen and Sharon looks at ease in a silk gown as she glides from room to room. There is an immediate wave of comfort and peace in watching her singing to you. The video ends with Sharon Hendrix cuddling up in bed with her Yorkshire Terrier with a t-shirt that emphasizes spreading kindness to all living creatures – a quote from legendary film star Doris Day and famously echoed by singer, songwriter Morrissey.
