Can you give us a brief insight into your upcoming projects?

Taydee Marie – I’m originally from Arkansas and I recently decided to go back to my roots a bit. I’m going to have some country cross-over songs coming out very soon! I’ve been wanting to do this for a while so I’m glad it’s finally happening!

 

What do you wish you were told when you first started making music that you think would help artists just starting out?

Taydee Marie – I’d say let yourself make mistakes. Keep writing and correct as you go along. I used to get so caught up in trying to make everything perfect, now I just keep writing until all the pieces fit. A lot of times I’ll get two songs out of it.

What do you do when you don’t do music (creative or otherwise) that you are passionate about?

Taydee Marie – My favorite thing to do outside of music is to hike and I also love audiobooks books. I’m a huge reader but I can’t stand to sit still, so audiobook is a great option for me. And when you pair that with a hike in nature it is the best thing EVER for me.

 

Any last piece of advice for those artists who just started making music?

Taydee Marie – I’d say don’t give up on yourself and work hard. It’s a journey and it won’t always be fun, but if you want to make it you have to keep going. I honestly have to remind myself of this a lot.

Sam Ostler Delivers a Heart-Stirring Triumph with “Unconditional Love”

Sam Ostler

In his latest song, “Unconditional Love,” Sam Ostler lets us into one of his most vulnerable creative moments yet. It’s a deeply personal single shaped by loss, reflection, and the kind of deep attachment that leaves a lasting mark. The song starts with a soft piano part and builds up to a powerful, soaring chorus. It takes listeners to a place where heartbreak and healing can happen at the same time.

Ostler sets up a feeling of closeness right away, as if he’s telling the world a secret. The simple piano arrangement makes the verses sound almost like they’re being whispered, letting each lyric breathe. But the chorus is where the song really shines. It rises with warmth and conviction, just like the feeling you get when you remember someone who changed your life forever. The contrast between softness and uplift in “Unconditional Love” really speaks to fans who have felt the weight of loss or the unwavering love that stays with us long after someone is gone.

Ostler wants to bring “Unconditional Love” to life outside of the studio by doing live acoustic performances, sharing intimate behind-the-scenes moments, and telling heartfelt stories on social media. This will help listeners better understand the experiences that shaped the record. His upcoming live shows, radio pitches, and partnerships with content creators will help the song reach more people who are looking for realness in modern music.

“Unconditional Love” is one of Sam Ostler’s most personal works to date. It is touching, cinematic, and very human. It stays with you. And for a lot of people, it will be the music that goes along with their own stories of love, loss, and everything else.
