The Brilliance regularly tour the U.S. and have performed at the MET’s Charity Water Gala, global festivals in New Zealand, Australia, Sweden, Israel, and Palestine. Childhood friends in Wisconsin, Gungor and Arndt create at a distance – between Minneapolis and New York – and their albums regularly feature guest cellists, singers, rappers and full orchestras. With diverse sound and stylistic influences, the word ‘Suite’ denotes the classical level of scale and intention. This week the group released their new song “Telephone,” which is a perfectly crafted song from start to finish.

The Brilliance give some insight regarding their latest single release:
“Telephone is a song about the universal nature of loss. While the world is turned upside down by a force we don’t totally understand, we find ourselves reminded, more than ever, that we are one big family. More deeply connected than we ever imagined. We dream, we run, we fight, we fall. In this time marked by fear and isolation, may we learn to see ourselves in each other. ”

The Brilliance is going strong and ready to bring us more music in 2020. “Telephone,” is out now, and our ears are pleased and eager for more…

Corbin Randall creates music that seeks to be as genuine and as multi-dimensional as life itself. His sound is inspired by the 60s but with a modern twist; intertwined with complex musical arrangements, yet with a familiar pop influence; reflecting on heavy introspective topics, but through an optimistic lens. Since nothing in life is ever as simple as one emotion or one theme – music should reflect that reality. His new single “In My Sails,” is out today via all digital outlets, and it is a delightful listen from start to finish.

Seeing musicianship in his family from his great-grandparents, to grandparents, and his parents as well, has influenced him to approach music with a deep reverence and purpose. Making music feels like the purest reflection of his soul. When he’s creating, he feels like he’s finally grasping that deep beautiful mystery of music that he dreamed of for all those years when he was younger. The sounds that were such a fountain of joy and wonder, are now something he’s a part of, rather than just experiencing.

Eric Selby is a multi-talented instrumentalist and producer with an impressive list of accolades. Selby has had the pleasure of playing with many of the greats – Billy Thompson, Lenny Castro, James East and Mike Finnigan to name a few, and was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame in November of 2012. He also was Blue411’s Drum Thumper “Jimi” Award winner and multiple WAMMIE awards nominations.

When listening to Selby’s brand new album Do, Baby. it is easy to understand how this musician became so lauded. Eric grew up incredibly inspired by The Beatles and those influences are easily detected in his tracks “Conversational Snow,” “Patiently,” and “Throw It All Away.” Selby’s vocals have a powerful whispering quality about them which force people to pay attention to every word he says and the album rounds out with a masterfully nostalgic track “Old Way.”

Do, Baby. has a way of introducing listeners’ ears to new content in a way they can’t help but be thrilled to accept it. The tracks have hints of fusion, some rock and some country elements all under a guise of Powerpop. This is the perfect listen for candlelight quarantine nights!

Stream “Do, Baby.”

Zaac pick is one our favorite up and coming artists this year. His blissful and noteworthy voice brings his musical essence to the world. . The song is a portrait of the singer’s struggle with anxiety and depression, the song’s swelling crescendos mirror the lyrics about finding relief in music. Most songs on his upcoming record “Passages,” were written fairly quickly, the recording process would test Pick’s resolve, when three months of unfruitful recording sessions nearly derailed the project. Pick floundered, and the sessions were ultimately abandoned. Pick started over with a new producer, Jonathan Anderson (Andy Shauf, Aidan Knight, Jordan Klassen), at his rural studio in Maple Ridge, BC (Protection Island). Returning each song to its essence, Passages was recorded with a newfound confidence in a rush of inspiration over just a few weeks. The album features contributions from a number of well-regarded Vancouver singer-songwriters and instrumentalists, including Jordan Klassen, Taylor Swindells (The Tourist Company), Bre McDaniel, Skye Brooks (Co-Pilots, Fond Of Tigers), and string arrangements by sibling duo Brian and Caleb Chan (Dear Rouge, Holy Hum). Passages is slated for release on all major music platforms May 22, 2020.
