Covenant School Tragedy Inspires Award-Winning Singer-Songwriter Pam Ross’ Emotional Tribute
Pam Ross, an award-winning singer, songwriter, and guitarist, was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, spent most of her life in Houston, and currently resides in North Carolina. However, it was her time spent in Nashville that truly solidified her position as one of the Up-and-coming Songwriters to Watch on the Nashville circuit. Ross performed for BMI industry showcases and had multiple stints at the renowned Bluebird Café and other local venues, establishing herself as an accomplished and talented artist.
It was her deep connection to Music City that inspired Pam to write her latest single, “Falling Off the Merry Go Round.” This poignant song was born out of the frustration and heartbreak she felt in the face of the ongoing plague of school shootings that continues to devastate communities across the country. As a society, we are failing our children and each other, and Pam believes that we all play a role in creating the world we live in. With over 175 deaths in school shootings since Columbine, it’s time to take action and develop real solutions to this ongoing crisis.
“Falling Off the Merry Go Round” will be available on April 21, 2023, accompanied by a music video that is currently in production.
Pam Ross has an unmistakable style that blends rock, Americana, and country into a unique sound that her fans have dubbed “Pam Music.” In June 2022, she began recording her album, “When Therapy Fails,” with a group of incredibly talented musicians at Goodluck Studio in Chapel Hill, NC. The album features ten songs, with the first single, “Fire In The Hole,” released on November 28, 2022. The song quickly garnered rave reviews from radio and top playlisters, and the music video, produced by Rob Underhill and Evelyn Putnam, received Official Selection in the Europe Music Awards. It has also been nominated for Best Music Video in the Carolina Film Festival 2023 and the Franklin Flix Indie Film Festival 2023.

Lana Crow turns challenges into a celebration with “Laugh With You”
“Laugh With You,” the latest single from Lana Crow, is a sincere rallying cry to embrace life in all its messy, beautiful mess. In the song, indie pop and alt-pop combine to deliver an emotional blow that feels both personal and universal.
“Laugh With You” feels like an instant connection, and Crow is telling you stories of hard times with a cozy, knowing smile. This song is as much about struggle as it is about how strong you are. It serves as a reminder that these struggles are simply what give us the strength to keep going, even when life is tough.
Crow encourages people to welcome them, create happiness in the cracks, and laugh even as the world gets heavy. The result is a song that delicately nudges you to love and embrace yourself. It is an anthem for anyone experiencing tough times who refuses to give up hope. Lana Crow continues to demonstrate her songwriting skills, both musically pleasing and emotionally rich, with “Laugh With You.”
It’s a reminder that it’s how we respond to tough times, rather than how they affect us, that’s key. With this song, not only does Crow provide us with music, but she also lets us know that sometimes a laugh is what we need to remember that there is always something to smile about and that, even when it feels like life has waged war against you, laughter can still be found.

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”
Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.
Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.
If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.
The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.
