KellyMarie Gets The “Timing Right” With New Single And Announces Return To Live Music

Indie-pop singer-songwriter KellyMarie delivers a captivating follow up to her 2018 debut EP, On A Whim, with her newest single, “Timing Right,” out February 4th. The artist is set to celebrate this release the following night with her first post-lockdown show opening for American band Mae at Dallas’ Granada Theater on Saturday, February 5th. KellyMarie shows listeners with this release just what she’s had in the works during her time away; her performance will feature more new songs from the upcoming album due for release in March 2022. This new project was a moment for the artist in which she dove head first into creating a body of work inspired by beloved house-hold television staple, The Office. “It’s often said – write about what you know and love,” says the seasoned songstress, “so during the lockdown, [she] did just this.” KellyMarie found herself writing the lead single for this album in the electric moment that inspiration hit. Beyond the angelic vocals and breezy melodies fans have already fallen in love with, listeners can expect to encounter a new side of KellyMarie’s artistry that offers a deeper look into the singer we met in 2018.

Lana Crow turns a dream inspiration into pop anthem with “In Spirit”

Lana Crow’s new single, “In Spirit,“ arrives as a high-energy pop anthem that blurs the line between subconscious inspiration and studio refinement. The song’s backstory, based on a real dream, adds an interesting emotional weight that’s easy to hear in the music.

“In Spirit“ has a retro-modern look, featuring elements of old-school texture and a modern pop structure. Made with Tristan Boston, the production feels simultaneously considered and organic. The record is based on four rigorously selected sample signatures that establish a soundscape both familiar and foreign.

“In Spirit“ was initially conceived as a laid-back, beachy song before it expanded into something more dynamic and wide-ranging. The gradual crescendo toward the chorus builds excitement, which is fulfilled by a catchy, almost hypnotic hook, tamped down by “Eeeeeooo,“ an unforgettable sound. Lana Crow’s singing is well-balanced between control and expression.

There is a compelling reflective quality beneath the surface energy, as though the song sits somewhere between an inner monologue and a celebration. What holds “In Spirit“ together is the contrast between peaceful intention and enterprising execution. “In Spirit“ is a testament to the value of following your creative instincts. Lana Crow transforms a daydream into a realized crunch of pop that makes clear she has lots of confidence in her art, and the next chapter could be exciting.

“Boom” by Chandra explodes with energy and in-depth storytelling

“Boom” is Chandra’s second single of 2026, and it’s the kind of moment when emotion, energy, and cosmic interest collapse into each other, delivering you a pop-rock sensation that is at once intimate and grand.

“Boom” settles into a steady sequence with the driven bass of Chris Wong and lead-guitar fireworks from Mike Paul. The production plays back-and-forth, the verses are cool and collected, and in the choruses, everything bursts into high, emotional sounds. The lead singer, Chandra Nair, sings in a way that feels quite personal yet speaks to everyone. He sings with a sense of wonder that matches the song’s central idea of soulmates wandering through an infinite cosmos to meet. It has a spiritual nature underneath all that, a sense of fate wrapped in heavy metaphor.

“Boom” is a song you think about and sing along to. The band leans into celestial and elemental imagery, contributing to a resonance. Chandra continues to make a name for themselves in contemporary pop-rock by balancing self-reflection with energy. Beyond being a song you want to hear, it demands you feel it, and the echo lingers well.
