Friendship Commanders Unleash Thunderous Metal-Rock Fusion with “High Sun”
Nashville-based heavy duo Friendship Commanders is back with a scorching new single, “High Sun,” and it’s a headbanger’s paradise. This track is the third release from their highly anticipated upcoming album, MASS, set to be unleashed on September 29. With “High Sun,” the band takes listeners on a sonic journey through memory, language, and the complex state of Massachusetts.
Buick Audra, the band’s songwriter, guitarist, and vocalist, drew inspiration for the album from her experiences in Massachusetts during her younger years. The driving force behind this concept record was the tragic loss of her dear friend, Marc Orleans. “High Sun” captures the chaos and tribulations Audra faced during her time in Massachusetts, where she was surrounded by apologists and became a scapegoat.
The accompanying video for “High Sun,” directed by Buick Audra herself, enhances the track’s intensity. Shot by Jerry Roe and Buck Audra and edited by Jerry Roe, the video intertwines Super 8 footage with high-resolution digital imagery, creating a visual representation of the past and present.
“High Sun” showcases Friendship Commanders’ ability to seamlessly fuse classic Metal with Rock elements, resulting in a blistering anthem that will resonate with fans of both genres. The song packs a punch with its thunderous riffs and dynamic lyrics, capturing the raw energy and spirit of the band. Prepare to be electrified by Friendship Commanders’ latest offering as they continue to push boundaries and deliver music that sets the stage on fire. Make sure to mark your calendars for the release of “High Sun” on all streaming platforms this Friday, and join the frenzy of playlist shares to experience the power of Friendship Commanders.

JAD4TRONX captures signature sound on “How Do I Let You Know”
JAD4TRONX serves up a masterclass in modern R&B with his newest offering, “How Do I Let You Know,” which combines West Coast feels and forward-thinking electronic-soul sensibilities. It’s a sound that honors his roots while radically expanding what R&B can feel like in 2026. The music is arranged with such surgical precision that every note has room to breathe while maintaining momentum that draws listeners back into the groove.
At the core of the track are Zamora Knight’s vocals, which infuse each lyric with raw honesty and palpable emotion. Her delivery is both intimate and commanding, gliding through the song’s peaks and valleys with precision. The push and pull between the production and the vocals lends a fragile tension that suits how one describes what can’t be described.
“How Do I Let You Know” is a diary entry, an extension of the openness she has built into the multihyphenate identity all her own, but nestles itself within the type of future-forward R&B soundscape that JAD4TRONX has become synonymous with.
