Around the Tubes: August 21, 2021

     

I have gotten a plethora of cool press releases have been flooding my inbox recently that you may find interesting.  This post includes blurbs on Lorde, Lyn Lapid, Just Stef, James Blake, Pen15, Snowpiercerand DC's Legends of Tomorrow.  


GRAMMY® Award-winning multiplatinum artist LORDE releases her highly anticipated third studio album,Solar Power – listen HERE. The album is already garnering stellar reviews. Solar Power  includes 12 tracks and is produced by Jack Antonoff who she collaborated with on her chart-topping last album, Melodrama.  The artist will take to the stage today to headline the “GMA” Summer Concert Series, performing tracks from the album at their first in-person Central Park show in nearly two years.  Then starting August 23rd, LORDE will join “The Late Late Show with James Corden” for a week-long residency during the show’s first week back from summer hiatus.


 After amassing over 4 million song views and 1 million likes on TikTok before officially releasing the song, singer and songwriter Lyn Lapid delivers her new fan favorite single “In My Mind” today—listen HERE!  Dedicated to the “‘quiet kids’ such as [herself]”, Lyn first teased “In My Mind” on TikTok last week, and the video quickly garnered over 3 million views in just a few days with her fans lovingly dubbing the song the “quiet kids song.” “In My Mind” hinges on a jazz-y groove as Lyn adopts a fittingly smoky delivery. Her voice wraps around airy guitar and a steady beat, as it builds towards a swooning refrain and she reveals, “People say I’m quiet most of the time, If only you knew what goes on in my mind.” Once again, Lyn’s dynamic vocals and sharp songwriting instantly enchant listeners.


After generating millions of streams on the original, first-generation Argentinian-American vocal dynamo Just Stef drops a showstopping Acoustic version of her debut single “Miss U Miss Me” today via The Heavy Group/Republic Records. Listen to “Miss U Miss Me (Acoustic)”HERE. She also shared an accompanying performance video. Watch it—HERE.  Backed by stripped and shimmering piano and soft strings, her raw vocal talents shine through, echoing on the instantly unforgettable hook. In the visual, she plays the piano as she sings into an old school freestanding microphone. The tight closeups capture her palpable emotion and showcase her undeniable energy.


GRAMMY® Award-winning UK singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer James Blake released “Life Is Not The Same,” the second track from his forthcoming new album, Friends That Break Your Heart, due out September 10, 2021 – available for pre-order HERE, via Republic Records.
