Hustle Souls - Make Believe
79 votes
The Band: In the budding music-mecca of Asheville, NC, a man with a trumpet, an acoustic guitar and a mission metamorphosed into the synergistic soul/indie-pop band, Hustle Souls. With 2 ½ years of touring under their belt, the band’s feel-good, modern meets vintage sound, have earned them a reputation as one of the region’s most promising independent acts. Lead singer and keyboardist, Billy Litz’s rootsy influences and vulnerable compositions are embroidered, garnished, and decked out by a powerhouse soul band. The rhythm section, Tommy Moore and Sean McCann aggressively usher in a tight jazz and R&B influence, while guitarist, Chris Everett, brings the group to the next level with his rock-ribbed feel. In 2017 the band was approached by gold and platinum mixer and producer Eric “Mixerman” Sarafin (Ben Harper, the Broadcast, Pharcyde) about making a record which has set the ball rolling at a different pace. Hustle Souls’ eclectic sound has come together on their debut full-length album, “Color.”

Emilia Tarrant - Black & White
Black & White is the second single and first original track that Emilia Tarrant has released. 100% written and composed by the artist this is the follow up to 150k streamed debut release ‘‘If you want love’, a cover version of the superb NF original. Both of Emilia’s tracks have been produced, recorded and mixed by Danton Supple (Coldplay). If you want love’ was featured for 3 mins in the UK’s biggest reality show Love Island. Emilia says “the song is about mental state. The inability to understand your own emotions and why they are there because there are too many. This ‘cloud’ of emotion causes you to therefore move through life in mental circles, hence ‘falling back into the same routine’. I wrote the song whilst staying in the south of France during summer. The storms kept me up through the night alike my emotions. Really liked the metaphorical imagery of emotions as storms, things you want to, but can’t control. Any way you turn, you’re stuck in that same circle, can’t shake off the ‘devil’ on your shoulder.”
Red Balance - The Lights Are On
Red Balance - The Lights Are OnThere is a moment in everyone’s life where it is time to stand up even if you feel that you are not ready for it. Can you imagine Michael Corleone refusing to lead the “family” after his brother ´s assassination? The song is a rock story about those scary moments where you feel that you are in the middle of a stage, in front of a crowded and unforgiving audience; there is nowhere to hide, The Lights Are On!!
