LEAP Shares Anthemic New Single ‘Potions’
The enigmatic LEAP takes down the pace with his brand new, deeply personal and highly intense alt-rock anthem ‘Potions’, continuing his auto-biographical exploration of mental health. Lead singer Jacky Scott is bi-polar, and following an extended manic episode in a psychiatric ward, ‘Potions’ taps into the cocktail of alcohol, medication and drugs that fuelled his mania. Touching on addiction and inner-city struggles, ‘Potions’ is an anthem for anyone who has struggled with self-medication. LEAP’s art form has a contagious energy that is sure to make a lasting impression on anybody that tunes in and ‘Potions’ is no exception.
Discussing the new track, LEAP shares: “Potions is a song I wrote about addiction and the different vices people take to escape their own disturbed thoughts. Feeling disconnected from the world and the people around me is something I’ve struggled with living with bi polar leading me to different forms of self medication but using music as an outlet has helped me conquer some of these demons. I hope anyone out there struggling can take something positive away from the song.”

2021 sees LEAP step up and out of the world of DIY releasing into a more ambitious, more refined sonic palette where he can comfortably compete with the biggest indie-rock acts around. Inspired by the likes of Fontaines DC, 21 Pilots and Yungblud, new singles ‘Energies’ and ‘Potions’ from his upcoming EP ‘1 Million Pieces’ are undeniable indicators of where Jacky’s raw, eclectic persona is heading.

SweetCandy! reveals the truth behind new release “ISOLATED DISPOSITION”
SweetCandy! latest release of “ISOLATED DISPOSITION,” a single that doesn’t just talk but also confesses, opens up a very open space. The song was written right after a fight, and it has a lot of emotional baggage that most artists would be too scared to show. SweetCandy! doesn’t give up, it pushes all the way in.
“ISOLATED DISPOSITION” is how isolating it feels to be alone and not understood. But instead of blaming others, the story looks inward and reveals a deeper truth, being alone can often be a choice. The song gets to the point, shutting down only makes the emotional distance between us and others bigger.
There isn’t any effort to make things better or hide the pain, SweetCandy! talks openly about how hard it is to want to be understood while also keeping things that would help people understand you. A lot of people who hear it will know right away that it doesn’t make sense.
“ISOLATED DISPOSITION” seems like a turning point in the end. It shows that people are ready to be more responsible, grow, and be honest with each other in the future. SweetCandy! makes it clear that being open about your feelings isn’t a sign of weakness, it’s the way to be truly seen in a world where it can feel dangerous to do so.

Shweta Harve sings of love that stands strong like a Tree on “Have You Loved Like a Tree?”
Shweta Harve’s latest release, “Have You Loved Like a Tree?” gently prompts listeners to reflect on how we think about love today. She uses a tree as a metaphor to show that love is stable, patient, and unchanging, rather than short-lived or performative.
Harve takes listeners to a place where they can think about their own experiences and the emotional truths they share with others. At its most basic level, the song is about unconditional love, love that gives without expecting anything in return, protects without being seen, and is always there even when you don’t see it.
The lyrics say, “Just like a tree, I will never fold / I will only give, endure, and grow / I’ll hold you close, I’ll let you go,” which is the heart of the song. Harve paints love as something that endures through storms, distance, and silence, just as trees endure through changing seasons. That picture has a quiet power that stays with you long after the song is over.
