Australia singer-songwriter Hayley Warner has released a new song called “Brother.” It features just piano and vocals. The first thing you notice is her voice – she has a great voice. However, it’s not just her great voice that stands out, but also the emotion she puts into her singing. Singers who are only in the business to hit notes belong on shows like American Idol, which Hayley was a part of. She was the runner-up in the final season of Australian Idol and is known for her vocal range. However, it is those who sing with genuine feeling and write songs that truly succeed. This is why The Daily Telegraph has named Warner as one of Australia’s most accomplished songwriters. Warner’s songwriting credits total over 11 times platinum in worldwide sales. Hayley co-wrote Grammy nominated artist Tori Kelly’s single “Hollow”. She released her debut single, “Closure”, which garnered upward of 12 Million streams, landing on Spotify’s “Viral Hits” and “Life Sucks”, as well as gaining the attention of a number of fellow artists. She dropped her follow up single “You Were Once” and will release a string of ne singles in 2023.

Josephine has released a new EP titled ‘Lost‘? The EP consists of six tracks with a total run time of 15 minutes. It takes listeners on a 15-minute journey of mellow, dreamy production, exploring an intimate journey of love, growth, and meaningful relationships amidst struggle. This EP is all about the songs, no gimmicks. The fact that the artist can still take the time to immerse themselves in art and writing in a digitally distracting world is truly amazing.

The EP narrates the journey of finding love, starting from being a lonely LA transplant to dreaming of a future with her partner in the south of France. In the song “Parking Tickets,” Josephine struggles with self-love, while “Time or Whatever” explores the fleeting and transactional nature of meeting people in the era of dating apps – “lost?” serves as a reminder that emotional experiences often lead to insights, something that resonates with us all on a personal level.

“This EP is a collage of diary entries from my first year living in LA. Getting lost in a sea of parking tickets, losing track of old friends, then getting lost in new loves and daydreams about the future. It’s about feeling lost until those moments when I realize I can just turn the gps off.. and then I’m just here.” – Josephine

Natalie Gish drops the new song She’s Going Places, the first release off her forthcoming EP. The new mid-tempo track blends elements of pop, electro, and funk, creating a dynamic fusion of genres.

Gish says, “She’s Going Places was inspired by a poster on my wall with a map of the world. This song tells my story of leaving my hometown to live out my big dreams. While leaving my family and friends was hard, I knew it was important for me to step out of my comfort zone with confidence. It is a reminder to those with stars in their eyes to not hold back and accomplish their goals.

The Nashville based artist released her debut EP in 2021. She cites Ella Fitzgerald, Etta James, and Billie Eilish as influences. The EP, which spans just 13 minutes, consists of four tracks: “Say Goodbye,” “Just Strangers,” “The End of Something Good,” and “Where I Was Before.”
