Irish rock band 'Paper Tigers' are making an entrance with their highly awaited EP 'Graceless'. Placing them as a new face of the rock genre, the five members: Michael Smyth, Hayley Norton, Emma Rose and Matt Milner, are a force to be reckoned with.
Taking an interesting and power force approach to this EP, Paper Tigers signify that each track ties back to an aura or individual making you feel 'Graceless'.
This EP is a rack of emotions complied to fit perfectly with the sound of Paper Tigers. Leading the way with the EP the title track is 'Hush'. Described as a 'siren's call', it's a noise that can not be missed. Turning your ears to the action but not the path for the right escapism we need. This song is an eruption of fire and fear disguised as a glowing sun.

A bold, grunge and head banging track has dropped by exciting new artist, Stef Pesic. The London signer-songwriter attached to his guitar likes to go where his music takes him, making his genre-hopping style unique.
'Call Me' is a strong title for the song, centering on the anger towards the job centre and the employed world. Stef Pesic proves his frustration to the modern world through power chords and an esteemed beat behind. His chatty-yet-confinding lyrics set him as a breath of fresh air.
"A song about being jobless and having to go to the job centre regularly, feeling frustrated and wanting to "get off the doll". At the same time, feeling stuck, the song touches on loneliness and wanting someone to fill the lonely hours, not quite knowing if you're worth their time or vice versa."
'Call Me' comes with a music video. A clever collection of shots, layered and layered to create a witty but conscious atmosphere about being unemployed at a job centre. This shows us Stef's involvement in his creations and his personality of working hard to get there.

Writing songs from the age of 12, young Emilia Tarrant is here with Grammy-nominated producer Will Hicks (Ed Sheeran) and next big single 'When It Was Chaotic'.
An exciting approach to her lyrics, Emilia leads with the daunting topic of her inner thoughts. A concept that she feels she knows well, 'When It Was Chaotic' rails in the struggles of mental health and the misuse of power it has in humans. Piecing the lyricism together, Emilia flips sides on the concept and suggests that maybe she 'preferred it when it was chaotic'.
“I am absolutely buzzing to be releasing ‘When It Was Chaotic’! I wrote the song in a period of my life when I had continuous writers block. At the time I was so consumed by the chaos of my mental health, and on the other hand, how it continuously numbed my mind. As someone who writes songs based on how I feel, there is nothing worse than feeling numband having nothing to write about... So ironically, I wrote a song about not being able to write songs! I think a lot of people who struggle with mental health day to day can understand how feeling something, even if it’s uncontrollable and endless, is better than feeling completely functionless. This song really captures the direction of production and song writing I’m going for this year, and with help from producer Will Hicks, we have developed it from a slow piano ballad into something much more energetic and exciting."

Releasing the music video soon directed by Alex Fountain, Emilia summons us to watch her 'chaos' create art.
