Inner Wave Signs to Nettwerk, Releases New Single “Madre” Ahead of Next Album

0

Nettwerk is thrilled to announce the signing of Gardena, CA Latin indie band Inner Wave. Known for their bright, experimental mix of psych pop and synthwave, the quintet has amassed hundreds of millions of streams with hit songs like “American Spirits” and “Eclipse.” The band, who previously played both weekends of Coachella in 2022 and opened for Chicano Batman’s farewell shows, has established a die hard regional following that now extends globally thanks to tours across North America, Europe, and China.

Inner Wave has released “Madre,” their first new solo single since their 2021 album ‘Apoptosis’, and it is available everywhere out now. “Madre” is the first single from the band’s forthcoming full length album, featuring effortlessly cool guitar melodies, thick kick drums, and a zany synth line during the chorus. Bassist Jean Pierre Narvaez spoke about the track’s distinctive rhythm, noting, “It also speaks to our West Coast hip hop background—it has a bounce that I don’t really hear other bands doing.” Lead vocalist Pablo Sotelo added that the new project reflects maturation, explaining, “There’s a lot of letting go of things and embracing the uncomfortable—the unknown. We’ve all become more self aware and mindful of others, and that led us to make this record.”

World class cellist Hauser, celebrated for effortlessly transcending boundaries in classical crossover, has released his highly anticipated album, ‘Cinema’, which is out now via Sony Music Masterworks. This sweeping homage to unforgettable film melodies is Hauser’s first solo foray into the genre, offering a more introspective and curated collection that reflects his own cinematic passions. The album was preceded by his soul stirring rendition of “What Was I Made For?,” the Oscar winning hit by Billie Eilish and Finneas from the Barbie Movie. Reimagined as a powerful solo cello piece, the single is paired with a visually striking music video that finds Hauser at his most expressive, channeling the song’s vulnerability and depth through his unmistakable artistry.

‘Cinema’ features 25 tracks recorded with the prestigious London Symphony Orchestra and conducted by Robert Ziegler, spanning decades of cinematic history. The selections highlight both the grandeur and intimacy of film music, ranging from the sweeping drama of “Tara’s Theme” from Gone with the Wind to the contemporary melancholy of the Billie Eilish cover. The album features a powerful lineup of iconic themes, including the “Mission: Impossible” theme, “Music Of The Night” from Phantom of the Opera, and Sam Smith’s Oscar winning song “Writing’s on the Wall” from Spectre. Hauser recently concluded his successful solo North American tour, The Rebel Is Back!, and is now bringing his cinematic performances to Europe this fall. As Hauser explains, “Some of these pieces are hidden jewels. They may not be instantly recognizable to everyone, but I believe they’ll become new favorites once people hear them through the lens of the cello.”

Roots rock rambler Liam St. John has officially released his debut studio album, ‘Man Of The North’, which is out now through Big Loud Rock. The album was preceded by the release of his hell raising new single, “Trouble,” a swampy, grungy number that finds St. John amidst a rock tinged bender as he attempts to exercise his darkest demons. “They say it’s darkest before the dawn, and ‘Trouble’ is the point in the album and in my life where I reached my darkest days,” said St. John. “They never tell you how dark it is down at rock bottom.”

The album, which has amassed significant buzz with over 90 million streams worldwide, is a powerful and personal statement from the Spokane born, Nashville based artist, who channels ferocity into every aspect of the project. It follows the gritty title track “Man Of The North,” which Wide Open Country called “a powerful song that I can’t get enough of.” The album, which features collaborations with Grammy winner Molly Tuttle and Houndmouth, finds St. John blending Americana, outlaw country, and rock with raw, immediate, and vulnerable songwriting. He recently made his debut at CMA Fest and appeared at Lollapalooza, prompting Celeb Secrets to name him “one of the most exciting rising voices in rock tinged Americana.” St. John is celebrating the record with his extensive 50+ date Man Of The North Headline Tour, which just kicked off his UK debut at Leicestershire’s The Long Road Festival.

Actor, screenwriter, and director Molly Gordon and producer and multi instrumentalist Blake Mills have released their new duet, “Islands in the Stream,” which is available everywhere out now. The track is featured in the Sony Pictures Classics film Oh, Hi!, which was also produced and co conceived by Gordon alongside writer and director Sophie Brooks. Gordon and Mills deliver a fresh and intimate folk version of the beloved classic, which was originally written by The Bee Gees and famously recorded by country icons Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton.

Gordon shared her sheer excitement about working with Mills, stating, “When Sophie and I were developing OH, HI! and she came up with the dream sequence, she mentioned that she planned to ask her friend Blake Mills to help us out. I tried to play it very cool, but I was secretly freaking out inside as he is my favorite artist.” She added, “We only had a couple of hours to record the cover, but we had an immediate language – and again, I tried to hide how much of a dream those few hours were.” Mills affirmed the unique experience, saying, “We got to take this song to the moon – fitting for its usage in the film – and I think we ended up with something that truly stands on its own merits.”

Huddy Releases Raw New Single “Fragile,” Embracing Vulnerability as Strength

0

Multi hyphenate musical force and Gen Z trailblazer Huddy has released his latest single, “Fragile,” which is available everywhere out now via Verswire. The track is an emotional and soul baring anthem that invites listeners to embrace vulnerability as a profound form of strength, accompanied by a cinematic official companion video, directed by Nathan Haugaard. This single continues the momentum of his boldest chapter yet, building on the foundation set by the recent release of “Vendetta.” “Fragile” is his most authentic and reflective track to date, delving into the universal experience of bottling up pain until finally reaching a necessary breaking point.

Huddy opens up about the quiet strength in admitting when things are not okay, challenging societal norms in the process. He shares, “In a world where we’re told to ‘suck it up’ and keep moving, Fragile is that pause – that breath – that says it’s okay to not be okay. As men, we often ignore vulnerability. As women, you’re told to toughen up just to prove you’re strong. But emotions aren’t weaknesses – they’re part of what makes us human.” “Fragile” provides a safe space for listeners feeling overwhelmed, heartbroken, or simply feeling too much, welcoming sadness, anger, and pain without shying away from them. Fans can catch Huddy performing this track live at upcoming dates, including the Ceremony Music Festival and the Vans Warped Tour.
