MILES EAST unleashes sonic brilliance with its new album “Between Lightning and Thunder”

ECR Music Group is thrilled to unleash MILES EAST’s long-awaited new album, “Between Lightning and Thunder.” The album is expected to significantly impact the indie music scene following the successful launch of three lead-up singles, which have already amassed numerous streams and secured a place on Apple Music’s “New In Rock” editorial playlist.

Produced by the esteemed music producer Blake Morgan, the album channels the profound depths of Beck’s ‘Sea Change’ and the timeless warmth of Paul McCartney’s ‘Ram,’ while evoking the intimate storytelling style of Iron & Wine, Ray LaMontagne and Jason Isbell.

“Between Lightning and Thunder” set the tone for the sonic voyage ahead, opening with “Better Than Here,” a track brimming with desperate optimism and propulsive rhythms.

Midway, “It’s Ours To Lose” and “Lucky To Be Here Tonight” further deepen the listener’s emotional engagement, demonstrating MILES EAST’s unparalleled ability to blend classic acoustic and soul with introspective allure.

The penultimate track, “Song Of Hope,” emerges as a guiding light, encouraging listeners to embrace the possibility of a brighter future. Meanwhile, the finale, “All I Need,” concludes with a quiet yet profound sense of redemptive simplicity that lingers long after the last note fades. Each song is meticulously crafted with attention to detail, navigating the album’s classic acoustic and soul soundscape with a tranquil, reflective optimism that embodies resilient hearts traversing life’s darkest storms.

“Between Lightning and Thunder” is essential listening for anyone seeking an introspective, timeless, and unforgettable musical adventure.

Album Review

Paul Terry, Aptøsrs & Cellarscape unite on bold new album “Alternative Piano Club”

Combining his three artistic alter egos, Paul Terry presents an awe-inspiring new 12-track album, “Alternative Piano Club,” written in collaboration with Aptøsrs and Cellarscape. This is an album-length voyage of music that blends acoustic, rock, and piano-driven cinematic sounds.

Torn between this complex emotional spectrum, all the while the piano remains at its core throughout. Paul Terry opens his “Memento Mori (Chromogenic Phase)” contemplatively, creating a solemn, reflective mood. Cellarscape’s “Three Years Of Roses“ is warmer, whereas Aptøsrs’ “Questionnaires“ is much more textured as a large, sculptural post-rock.

“Dave’s Theme,” written by Paul Terry, musically expands the narrative with a touch of cinematic elevation that aligns well. “We Shape The Clouds” by Cellarscape is fluffy and heart-warming, “Writers Behind The Curtain” is somber, more narrative. We are all together in “A Place We Made,” an honest, intimate, emotionally grounded space.

The project contains vocal warmth and cultural depth in the song “This Is My Home“ by Silas Miami & Lana Crowster. Proceeding in a totally different direction is the stronger emotional clarity of Paul Terry’s acoustic storytelling on “Any Time You Want To Fly” and “No Sleep Has Come.” Cellarscape presents a wide, spacious atmospheric moment in “Cygnus,” while Aptøsrs ends with “Rust Mountain (Monochrome Piano Version),” a simple gem that brings the project full circle.

The mixing of Sam Okell and Adam Noble, the mastering of Alex Wharton and Robin Schmidt have, in many ways, brought their polish to it while still making it feel human. “Alternative Piano Club” is a work entity, where three musical personalities met and talk mind in the same emotional language.
