Brother and The Hayes tune into soulful memories with new single “Radio Waves”
Texas sibling duo Brother and The Hayes strike a gorgeous balance between intimacy and reflective longing on their new single “Radio Waves.” With David Bingaman on guitar and Jennie Hayes Kurtz providing casually soulful vocals, this track buzzes with the sort of warmth that simultaneously feels intimate and classic, like finding a love letter that’s been stashed in a vinyl sleeve. A brother-sister act from Dallas, the siblings were marinated in a stew of musical idioms, from gospel-laced choirs to blues standards.
The diversity of that foundation shines through in “Radio Waves,” where David’s guitar work pays polite homage to the Texas blues legends he holds dear, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Lightnin’ Hopkins, while Jennie Hayes’ voice soars with the clarity and control of one who cut her teeth in choirs but didn’t shed the spirit of real feeling in the process. “Radio Waves” is a love song and a time capsule, evoking the magic of turning on a late-night station and hearing a song that hits you like a fist. There’s a sweet ache woven into the melody, an evocation of the unsaid connections and memories that music evokes unbidden. The production is minimal. Every note, every breath, feels intentional, feels organic, feels human. This is storytelling of the gentlest kind. The lyrics tend to stick to the simple and let the emotional texture do the heavy lifting.
For Brother and The Hayes, less is more, and in the emptiness is where listeners are encouraged to feel deeply, reflect, and remember. “Radio Waves” is simply too down to earth for that. It shoots for the heart, offering a song that is homey, that is, memory, the sound of something that has always been playing softly in the background of our lives. Brother and The Hayes are choosing to make their own with tunes that are steeped in family, feeling, and simply undeniable craft. “Radio Waves” shows they are transmitting something special.

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.

NOAH. captures the unspoken signals in enchanting R&B track “That’s Bless”
“That’s Bless” captures the unspoken late-night message, the smile that was exchanged from afar, and the feeling you sense but are afraid to say. NOAH. offers a song with a smoky R&B feel and lyrics that capture unspoken tension, firmly in the realm of emotional ambiguity, where connection is clear but not defined.
This piece concerns the subtle discomfort of mixed signals and quiet longings, when looks say more than words ever could. NOAH. handles the theme with restraint, letting the chemistry simmer rather than explode. NOAH.’s delivery shows a confident gentleness, recognizing that some feelings don’t need strict definitions to be real.
In “That’s Bless,” he captures the essence of connection and the compelling allure that endures, even when both parties pretend it is not there. The composition is based on real-life events, and it acknowledges that specific attachments endure in the heart long after one has persuaded oneself of having progressed.
“That’s Bless” is at the crossroads of closeness and distance, clarity and confusion. The song doesn’t resolve the tension it talks about, and that’s what makes it so powerful. It sums up the connection we say we don’t want but keep coming back to in memory, rhythm, and pulse.
