Punk/rock band Waterfront hail from Alberta, Canada, and have an intensely stirring sound. Since 2019 the band has been traveling (when safe) and sharing their exclusive and hearty sound amongst many. The last time we featured Waterfront on BuzzMusic, they released their highly impressionable music video for their song, "Wedding At My Funeral," which hosted a mysterious and alluring storyline. The deep and dark narrative seething through each lyric attributes well to the visuals the group delivered, and we were only left stunned by their enigmatic performance. During their exclusive interview with BuzzMusic, Waterfront dived into the meaning of "Wedding At My Funeral" for those it didn't come easily to. The song dug deep into oxymoronic lyrics by presenting the ideology of a wedding being held at someone's funeral. "Wedding At My Funeral," like all of Waterfront's songs, bring in many creative elements from each member. The band refers to the song's creative process as a "coloring book," where each member adds in their components until the final product is seamless. Overall, their strategy works to their advantage incredibly well, and they have "Wedding At My Funeral" to prove it. Read the full BuzzMusic article on Waterfront here. Instagram Facebook

It is within this very safeness that allows "Rose Coloured Glasses" to hold the poise it does. We're heavily intrigued with Chris Carroll's final product with "Rose Coloured Glasses." His ability to bring a multitude of emotions to the surface with the simple sound of his voice is inspiring, and we'll be keeping an eye out for future music from this original-sounding artist. Welcome to BuzzMusic Chris Carroll. We're sure with the release of your original song, "Rose Coloured Glasses," came a load of emotions. How are you feeling now that the song has officially debuted? I’m very happy with the release and how it’s been received. What narrative were you hoping to push with "Rose Coloured Glasses?" If listeners could take away one ultimate feeling from the song, which were you hoping it would be? The song is about going into new love with a fresh pair of eyes, seemingly after countless heartbreaks, seeing only what you want to see. There’s a sense of caution in the song as well though, as we do our best not to be so blind to what can counter those wonderful feelings later on. I hope for my listeners to feel a sense of ‘new nostalgia’ when they hear the song, perhaps remembering what it's like to fall in love...with falling in love. As an artist that enjoys blending many genres together to craft their personalized sound, how do you believe your recent song release is set apart from other releases of today? In most of my songs to date, I try to incorporate some sort of familiarity of older songs I grew up loving, which might be deemed retro and infusing it with my hip-hop roots. I think my intention to keep it fresh, yet familial, makes my songs stand out. I’m really just putting together, to the best of my ability, genres of songs I grew up loving. My drummer and collaborator, Fer Moreno who plays on this track, really tapped into that nostalgia though, and “Rose Colored Glasses” wouldn’t be what it is without his expertise. We referenced The Beatles and mid-60s style Wall of Sound recordings, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. Will your future music adhere to a similar sound heard in "Rose Coloured Glasses?" I have a few more retro vibe songs to release, and I’ve been super inspired by soul music and the sort of “Lowrider” oldies, but I'm really excited to begin releasing some more contemporary pop joints later on in 2022. What's next for you, Chris? I have many exciting collaborations on the way. I’ve also just completed my full-length album, entitled Still, and will be releasing that around the new year! This project will sort of consolidating that retro sound and bridge it with the contemporary tracks I’ll be putting out later on. I’m really looking forward to sharing it. Instagram Artist Website

The Canadian new wave electro-pop pioneers Men Without Hats highlight their reimagined version of their 1981 smash hit, "Safety Dance," more recently retitling the updated version, "No Friends of Mine." Men Without Hats took the 80s by storm, touring across North/South America, Europe, Scandinavia, Jamaica, Australia, and many more. Continuing their momentum with new tunes that crossover between 80s electro-pop and modern pop, Men Without Hats are eager to introduce their recent 5-track EP, 'Again (Part 1),' for listeners to reacquaint themselves with their classic sound. Their forthcoming EP features four covers of Lou Reed, Mott The Hoople, The Tragically Hip, and The Rolling Stones. The fifth track on the EP offers a new and improved version of their iconic hit, "Safety Dance," entitled "No Friends of Mine." Diving into "No Friends of Mine," the song opens with a shimmering synth that slowly makes its way into the foreground. As a warm and bright piano melody begins to sonically serenade us alongside a floating woodwind instrument, Ivan Doroschuk makes his classic vocal appearance while reciting the lyrics for the iconic tune. As he continues serenading us with this Billy Idol meets Billy Joel delivery and approach, we can't help but feel this accompanying emotion pour through his performance, stirring up a few nostalgic elements along the way. As Men Without Hats continue raining their vocals and instrumentals down from above, they shift into this pulsating electro-pop atmosphere that leaves us feeling all the more refreshed and stimulated. Not to mention the addition of warm vocal harmonies, this reimagination of their hit single, "Safety Dance," is something we didn't know we needed. Catch the new and improved sounds of Men Without Hats and their recent EP 'Again (Part 1)' on all digital streaming platforms. A very warm welcome to BuzzMusic Men Without Hats. We're more than excited to have you here for an interview regarding your reimagined version of "The Safety Dance" entitled "No Friends of Mine." What inspired your group to recreate this smash hit and add it to the tracklist of your EP 'Again (Part 1)?' We’re quickly approaching the 40th anniversary of Safety Dance, so re-inventing the song in a modern way felt like a suitable way to celebrate the milestone. What sort of listening experience did you want to offer your audience with "No Friends of Mine?" Why did you choose to take a more organic and soulful approach this time around? I wanted this rendition to be a follow-up of the story behind the music video for Safety Dance. Forty years later, I go back to the village of West Kington to visit the Jester and the crazy blonde chick, and No Friends Of Mine is the soundtrack. When people listen, I hope they are comforted by the nostalgia it brings. I also love that young listeners may be hearing this song for the very first time! Why did you choose to cover acts like Lou Reed, Mott The Hoople, The Tragically Hip, and The Rolling Stones within your EP, 'Again (Part 1)?' We had a lot of covers in the works that we eventually narrowed down to create this EP. At the end of the day, this collection of songs is a great representation of our favorites and our biggest influences. I have been a huge fan of Lou Reed ever since Transformer. I saw him perform in the ‘80s when I was honeymooning with my first wife in Rome and to this day it remains one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to. Seeing that 'Again (Part 1)' is a part 1, what should we expect to hear within part 2? Do you plan on releasing more covers similar to Part I? I’m excited to share more news about Part 2 very soon. It will include original songs, some of which were written decades ago and never saw the recording studio. It will be a real treat. Stay tuned! Instagram Facebook

Nashville-based artist Veesugee isn't just your average singer/songwriter. With timeless, prophetic-like vocals, Veesugee can reach the hearts of listeners authentically and vibrantly. Her dreamy, yet haunting music style is what garners a ton of attraction to her and her vocal sound, as she performs in a way that's disparate to what listeners may be used to hearing in the current alt/indie music scene. With some great vocal cords in her back pocket, Veesugee has applied her spirit to a new song release, titled "ATLM." "ATLM" stands for "Anti The Learned Machine," which is the second song appearing on the still-to-be-released album by Veesugee. "ATLM" sheds light on the extremities of today and the obstacles humanity faces as a whole. It is within this particular song that Veesugee pours her ultimate heart, power, and hope in, giving listeners the chance to explore, reflect and introspect. "ATLM" itself contains an ethereal-like effect that hosts potent, mystified energy. The quality of energy that the song delivers only works to draw listeners' curiosity in, which eventually gets snagged as the eerie performance by Veesugee continues. She has an incredibly soft and delicate voice that lusciously explodes a series of angelic-sounding tones. Veesugee shapes her vocal arrangement strategically so that every lyric that she delivers is asserted with a goosebump-like effect. Veesugee was thoughtful and spirited within "ATLM," proving that her eclectic, otherworldly sound has a solid place in the music era we live in today. All in all, "ATLM" was only a taste of what's to come with Veesugee, so keep an eye out for her album release. Thank you for joining us at BuzzMusic, Veesugee. What kind of thoughts and feelings immediately followed your release of "ATLM?" Hello! And thank you! I was honestly relieved. Overwhelmed with joy. Beyond excited to have reached completion and am ready to share my music with the world. I just kept thinking…I did it! I did it! Against all odds, I pushed thru. I did it! When constructing "ATLM," did you keep in mind the general tone of your album to assure the song fit right in place? I spent countless hours listening to the songs in a different order. It was important to me the message in each song continues to build and flow. Each song in itself is a journey. And it was from this place of creation that the songs came into order. "ATLM" took on some pretty diverse topics and themes. In your opinion, which was the most pivotal theme covered in your song? That we are human beings with beating hearts. We are not machines. We are Anti the Learned Machine. Humanity is being governed by powerful men and women. The society in which we live operates robotically. The expectations and assumptions that all of humanity exists this way couldn’t be further from the truth. We possess the power to make this life better. Do you find your distinguishable sound fits right into the music scene in Nashville? How has the response been for "ATLM" thus far in Nashville? Yes and No. Yes because my performance captivates audiences. It pulls the listener in. It’s a humbling experience as a performer and artist. And no because my sound stands out from the crowd. I’m a leader in my style of music. I’ve spent years developing and cultivating this sound. What's next for you? At my core, I am a creator, so I am writing another album. I’ve also branched out and started a new project under the name, “Rare Sun”. I’m seeking producers in the Nashville area to work within developing this mainstream project. I’ve got a lot to keep me busy. My musical well and creative visions are endless. Instagram Facebook

"Saturday" is a beautiful and peaceful song. How did it originally come together with Sara Beth Go and have the two of you collaborated prior to this? It's a great match. "Saturday" is one of the very first songs I wrote! I’ve been an artist manager for 10+ years and about 2 years ago I started having the desire to write my own songs. I wondered, after so many years on the business side, did I have what it takes? I shared my song idea with some really supportive friends and “Saturday” was born. Nathan K. and Sara Beth Go were visiting LA from Nashville. Over breakfast one morning, I told Nathan I have all these song ideas. He was open to working with me to get to the next step towards finishing a song. When we met up with Sara Beth later, she joined in on the collaboration. For the demo, I sang “Saturday,” but realized that Sara Beth’s voice was better suited for the song. I’ve realized over time that not all the songs I write are for myself. I want to feature different artists who I think can carry out the vision for each one. One day I want to be able to pick up the phone and say… Elton! I got a song for you. I will eventually release songs with my voice on them, but for now, my plan is to feature different artists. In addition to your musical talents, you're also quite the visionary on the video production side. What's your backstory there and do you find that one area of your life inspires the other? In high school, I knew I wanted to work in video production. After college, I worked on a few film internships in various states before heading back to my home in Michigan. Before I knew it I was asking my Dad “do you think my car will make it to LA?” He responded, “What does that mean?” ...and a few days later I was driving cross country to LA. Music has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve managed bands and had the opportunity to work with a few different artists over the years. I noticed that being an artist/tour manager and tv/film producer you need the same skill set. I think people in each of those industries don't always see that. Co-Directing and Producing the PBS documentary “The Dancing Man of L.A.” was the best of both worlds for me because I’ve always been obsessed with music documentaries and I got to create one! The scenery in the music video is simple yet stunning, powerful. We can go on and on about the colors. How did you find this location to shoot? Where did the concept come from? "Saturday" is ultimately a breakup song about missing someone that was in your life. I wanted the video to be subtle and contemplative with a retro vibe. I scouted the airstream first and didn’t realize there was a whole house on the property I could work with as well! Once I saw it I knew that The Pink House in East Nashville was perfect for the vibe I wanted. Filming in Nashville was a bit easier than bringing everyone to LA. I had a stellar team already in the area. I’m lucky to be friends and colleagues with super talented cinematographer Josh Tyron. We love that you enjoy teaming up with other artists in your music. Since the pandemic, do you feel a bigger sense of comradery than ever before? I think for many songwriters virtual songwriting sessions were key during the pandemic. It gave us the chance to look forward to working on something new, instead of the endless “Groundhog Days.” These sessions were a source of gratitude for me to still collaborate and create. Now it’s a treat to be able to see people again in safe environments and work in person. What can new fans expect from you next? I’m working in a lot of genres. In fact, I’ll be releasing a country song next! That’s the joy of collaboration! You never know where it may take you creatively. I’m open to working with lots of different artists as I grow in my film and songwriting career. Also, my documentary film “The Dancing Man of L.A.” will be broadcast on PBS. Stay tuned to your local channel in the next few months for that! Jen Fodor Instagram Jen Fodor Facebook

Virginian-born artist Dalia Lily has a powerful voice and mind to share with pop-inspired listeners. Involving herself with music and melodies ever since the young age of 6, Dalia Lily has always had an intuition that the music world was one meant for her to explore. By the age of 13, Dalia Lily had already composed an instrumental album that granted her a variety of awards. Today, Dalia Lily continues her quest in advancing her musical career by debuting her personalized, heartfelt song, "Hear Me." Dalia Lily is quite particular with her vocal nuances in "Hear Me," as she maintains a low-toned vocal pitch for the majority of the song. The chorus is really where she explores her vocal range and offers higher-pitched melodies to bring on an affecting performance. A smooth collection of various instrumentals make up the production, and particular combinations, such as integrating the violin with contemporary synths, bring on a refreshing style of sound. Lyrically, "Hear Me" is Dalia Lily's way to express her personal thoughts surrounding her strong mindset. A more clarifying understanding of Dalia Lily's mind gets put forth, and ultimately "Hear Me" is established to be an ambient, mood-affecting tune. "Hear Me," is now available on major streaming platforms. Welcome to BuzzMusic Dalia Lily. You have successfully released your impassioned single, "Hear Me." How does it feel? Did you receive the response you were hoping for and/or looking for? It feels amazing to share something with the world that feels so much like myself and has great meaning to me. The blend of orchestral and pop elements, and details in the arrangement, such as the vocalizations, harmonies, and complementary lines tie in so much of what influences me musically. The general response has been that the song and meaning are powerful and moving. That was my exact hope with this song. What kind of creative approach did you use for the generation of "Hear Me?" I wrote this song in 2019 when witnessing the social media response to some issues occurring in Sudan. Everyone was posting blue squares on Instagram in solidarity and after a week, the chatter on the matter died down. This happens constantly with almost every social issue today. This inspired me to write a song from the perspective of those crying out for help and watching their message disappear as the world turns a blind eye. I created it with just my voice and the piano. Stripped down, it sounded quite repetitive and simple, but I envisioned a powerful orchestration with a great build. I wanted a big sound that couldn’t go unnoticed, just as the message of the song. My producer and I filled the song with many layers of instruments for a rich and large sound. However, we also used my voice as an instrument to fill in open spaces with vocalizations, in addition to multiple layers of harmonies for a greater impact. I also used my voice as an instrument to illustrate the fact that the voices of the victims of social injustice need to be amplified. I used power in my voice to show that change starts with powerful voices. If there was an ultimate message for listeners to take away with "Hear Me," which were you hoping it would be? Social injustices are issues of Humanity and not just politics. It should not be hard to recognize when people are being mistreated, and those situations should not be tolerated. Social injustices have occurred repeatedly throughout human history. It is essential to have constant calls for action to solve these problems. With "Hear Me" being released, do you have any plans for future music, and if so, will future music adhere to the same style that was used within "Hear Me?" I’m excited that I will be releasing some more music soon! I am employing other genres, but I am threading them together and making them my own with elements that are expressive of me. Expect lots of harmonies and toying with vocals, some middle eastern and Latin flairs, and lots of layering! What's next for you? I will continue to explore my craft, learn and release more music that will hopefully capture and express the feelings of my listeners. Also, I would love to pursue more live performances and collaborations with different artists. I will keep creating and I’m sure there will be some surprises along the way! Facebook Artist Website

RudySamA's curiosity for music began long ago once he involved himself with various artists that were able to help him evolve into the very artist he is today. Venturing into a multitude of styles, including rap, indie/rock, and contemporary trends, RudySamA has a clear sense of the mind of versatility he wants to capture within his sound. Today, RudySamA has released his impressionable, rap-based single, titled "Star Shaped Sol." "Star Shaped Sol" has a pure underground vibe with the low-key tone that RudySamA keeps throughout the song. The characterizable, slow-paced melody of the song encourages listeners to bring everything done a notch and focus in with their senses to explore the elaborate ambiance. RudySamA does a phenomenal job at keeping the equilibrium of "Star Shaped Sol" strong, and he does so with the consistent delivery and tone he snags for the duration of his track. Lyrically, "Star Shaped Sol" is walking through many narratives. RudySamA touches on themes of success, overcoming one's battles, and rising up from the ashes with a strong spirit. Take away what you want from "Star Shaped Sol," but we guarantee there's most definitely an element to take away from it if you're honed into the song. All in all, the chosen style and delivery by RudySamA allowed "Star Shaped Sol" to feel particularly ominous, but in a flavourful and confident way. We're anticipating more of RudySamA's quality potency with new music to come. Welcome to BuzzMusic RudySamA, and congratulations on your release RudySamA. What kind of thoughts and emotions immediately followed your track release, "Star Shaped Sol?" Thank you!! I was super excited because this track was done and ready to be released years ago but I delayed it until I felt it was right. However, I didn’t get Taylor Belle (the female vocalist on the song) to sign off on using her name on the feature so I had to take down the track immediately after it went up lol I spent hundreds of dollars promoting it and getting it mastered just for my own stupidity to derail all the momentum I gained. So in short It felt great to drop it and really crummy after I had to re-drop it without any momentum. Let’s dive right into the storyline presented in your track and how it related to the grander picture of your life. What inspired the storyline within "Star Shaped Sol?" I wanted to make a song about the human concept of having a soul/consciousness. However, I like to fill my music with strange references and double entendres. I wanted the listener to not only have to listen to the lyrics multiple times in order to fully grasp its meaning but to also do it in a way that they’ll come to a different conclusion every time. I wanted to make the instrumental dark yet magical, bland yet captivating. I needed the sound to be an ominous backdrop that compliments the abstract nature of my lyrics. Were there any strategies you incorporated during the writing/recording stage that you felt helped to elevated "Star Shaped Sol?" My goal was to leave whoever listens to the song either baffled or enlightened. I needed my verses to sound monotonous yet bouncy so the listener would be captivated by the lyrics and not the song structure or melody. The hook needed to be the opposite of that. It needed to sound mystical and beautiful. The entire song is meant to feel like watching the sunset on an autumn night. Chilly yet gorgeous. The words I write are meant to be understood as doublespeak. They’re meant to come to a different conclusion every time it’s listened to. I make my lyrics sound confusing to both hits the subconscious and conscious mind alike. How do you continue to master your sound and ensure the next project you release is even more elevated than your previous releases? My message will always be the same. I try to use different styles and genres to further my reach both as an artist and as a lyricist. My goal is to sound unique yet the same. I know that seems like a huge contradiction but my art is essentially spoken word poetry dressed in cool music. So as long my lyrics are heard and interpreted in an individual way according to the listener then I feel my job is done well. I network a lot and hand out stickers with a QR code leading to my music. I perform whenever my schedule allows me to do so. I pitch my music to playlists and bloggers and I’m not afraid to admit all of this. Whether all these efforts lead to a handful of people who vibe with me or a mass audience then I feel like I’ve succeeded. My enjoyment comes from making the music itself, the growth and elevation come from a continuous need to keep making and releasing music. The goal is always to make something cool enough to release and once that’s done it’s on to the next project. Instagram Twitter

Championed by BBC Introducing and critics globally, Wild Horse continue to leave their marks as prodigious in every way. Jack Baldwin, older brother Henry Baldwin, and friend Ed Barnes on drums gel together flawlessly to form irresistibly catchy indie rock, always uniquely infused with their diverse tastes. Covering all bases in order to incorporate elements of pop, classic rock, punky reggae, blue-eyed soul, dirty funk, rap, Latin and so much more into their distinctive sound, Wild Horse has crafted a sound that is truly their own brand of indie. Immediately creating a gravitational pull with the mesmerizing tempo explored in “Symphony of Broken Hearts,” we’re charged up by the amplified essence of emotion that has our minds transported to a poignant place. What strikes our ears as robustly unique has to be the fact that the minimal approach to the instrumentation allows the brilliant wording to land with purpose. Each prevailing key that’s performed adds a certain intimacy into the composition's scheme. Cascading with a resonated bassline that drives the infectious grooves in a way that leaves you longing for more, there’s a striking blend of musicality that has us baffled with the power that can be held in a single track. Every moment in “Symphony of Broken Hearts,” has its place, and the smoldering croons that profess lyrical motifs reflecting on the feelings of loss experienced after a breakup, have our perspective shaped heavily by what Wild Horse aims to convey. Going as far as to shine a light on the depth of emotions that come from an experience as such, we even get to explore the anger and resentment that comes with forcing yourself to reflect on the past. Never one to let us down, the impact of this record has us eager to click the repeat button, as we vulnerably open ourselves to the themes addressed. Welcome back to BuzzMusic Wild Horse. The beauty that lies in “Symphony of Broken Hearts” lingers in our headspace with utter force. Was there a particular moment that inspired the creation of this record? The song was inspired by the initial feelings of sadness and confusion in the wake of a breakup. We wanted to keep this song extremely honest and raw so that our listeners can relate to it as much as possible. Could you please take us into what the creative process looked like when bringing this song to life? How did everyone in the band contribute to the ultimate vision? The song started out with Jack playing around on the piano until he came up with the chord progression. From there the lyrics came quite quickly. Lyrically, it was not a difficult song to write as it was just so honest with how Jack was feeling at the time. The song was brought to the rest of the band where Henry came up with the subtle and driving bassline and Ed came up with what we felt was the perfect beat to match the mood of the song. We wanted to keep the music really simple and let the lyrics shine on this one. In terms of the gospel-esque backing vocals, that came from messing around in our home studio whilst trying to figure out what harmonies should be on the song and it ended up taking the song to a whole other level. How does the intimacy of “Symphony of Broken Hearts,” compare to the emotion shed in previously released songs? Our two previous singles have been very upbeat and fun. There is a lot of songs like that on our upcoming project but there is also a lot of moodier ballads. “Symphony of Broken Hearts” is the first taste of that side of our next project. The project itself is all about learning to love yourself and to not care what other people think of you and the process that you have to embark on to achieve that, the highs (the more upbeat songs), and the lows (the sadder songs). If your audience could take away one lesson from this track, what would you want it to be? That it is ok to not feel ok after a breakup, or in general for that matter. It is important to be open and honest with your emotions because by coming to terms with how you are feeling you will find it so much easier to realize what you need to do or change in your life to start feeling better.
