Livia Gazzolo’s “Porcelain Doll” shatters expectations with jazz-infused elegance
Livia Gazzolo’s newest single, “Porcelain Doll,” is a powerful song about standing strong and being true to oneself. Blending classic jazz sounds with modern storytelling, Gazzolo creates a beautifully personal experience that resonates with anyone who has ever felt like they didn’t quite fit in or were seen as just a pretty face. “Porcelain Doll” celebrates resilience and serves as a quiet protest against being objectified or pressured to conform.
Gazzolo draws inspiration from classic jazz songs like Duke Ellington’s “Satin Doll” and the cheerful “Truly Scrumptious” from “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang,” but she gives them a fresh twist that is uniquely her own. While those old songs often portray women as delicate and fragile, Gazzolo’s version flips that idea, exploring themes of identity, inner strength, and the importance of recognizing one’s worth. The rich and warm song creates an elegant atmosphere that perfectly showcases Gazzolo’s expressive voice. The combination of instruments feels brilliant and modern, adding depth to her story. Every note and lyric is carefully crafted, radiating a quiet confidence that stays with you long after the song ends.
Gazzolo rejects being put on a pedestal and takes the narrative back for herself, reminding everyone that real beauty comes from being genuine, not perfect. Her delivery is empowering and encouraging, asserting that we should all strive to be our complete selves. Livia Gazzolo shows that jazz is about growth and transformation. She shapes familiar sounds into something bold and personal that truly resonates. Gazzolo’s voice and artistic vision are ones we should all pay attention to.

Lana Crow turns challenges into a celebration with “Laugh With You”
“Laugh With You,” the latest single from Lana Crow, is a sincere rallying cry to embrace life in all its messy, beautiful mess. In the song, indie pop and alt-pop combine to deliver an emotional blow that feels both personal and universal.
“Laugh With You” feels like an instant connection, and Crow is telling you stories of hard times with a cozy, knowing smile. This song is as much about struggle as it is about how strong you are. It serves as a reminder that these struggles are simply what give us the strength to keep going, even when life is tough.
Crow encourages people to welcome them, create happiness in the cracks, and laugh even as the world gets heavy. The result is a song that delicately nudges you to love and embrace yourself. It is an anthem for anyone experiencing tough times who refuses to give up hope. Lana Crow continues to demonstrate her songwriting skills, both musically pleasing and emotionally rich, with “Laugh With You.”
It’s a reminder that it’s how we respond to tough times, rather than how they affect us, that’s key. With this song, not only does Crow provide us with music, but she also lets us know that sometimes a laugh is what we need to remember that there is always something to smile about and that, even when it feels like life has waged war against you, laughter can still be found.

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.
