“Lying” by CATLEA unleashes a triumphant anthemic brilliance
CATLEA flips the script on betrayal and the traditional break up with her latest enchanting pop single, “Lying.” With this song, she offers a spirited retort to unfaithfulness, turning heartbreak into an empowering anthem. Teaming up with acclaimed producer Jason Boshoff, whose magic touch has graced tracks by Ed Sheeran and Josh Groban, CATLEA has crafted a song that’s as musically catchy as it is cathartic. Recorded at PLAY Audio in Cincinnati, Ohio, CATLEA’s vocals are the heart and soul of this composition.
Boshoff’s masterful production emanating from Barcelona’s Room to Studios exudes a polished and dynamic quality. It seamlessly blends uplifting instrumentals with weighty subject matter, engendering a dance-worthy and thought-provoking listening experience that resonates with audiences on multiple levels. “Lying” immediately grabs listeners with its upbeat rhythm, showcasing CATLEA’s talent for creating memorable indie-pop tunes.
CATLEA’s vocal performance demonstrates both sultriness and assertiveness. She imbues the song with an authentic rhythm that amplifies its emotional depth and conveys a message of resilience in the face of deceit. Her voice adeptly navigates between sensual softness and powerful defiance, delivering honest and unwavering lyrics that deeply resonate with those who value emotional authenticity.
Rather than succumbing to feelings of betrayal, CATLEA confronts her unfaithful partner with remarkable confidence. The astute twist in the chorus resonates with anyone who has experienced deception, suggesting the pursuit of happiness with genuine friends rather than enduring manipulation. This bold message, wrapped in an irresistibly danceable melody, addresses the painful reality of infidelity while transforming the experience into a declaration of independence.
As the second single from her forthcoming album, “Language Barrier,” “Lying” builds on the momentum of her debut, “Like Me,” offering a promising glimpse of what to expect from her upcoming full-length album, which will be both deeply personal and widely relatable. This remarkable track showcases her evolution as a songwriter and solidifies her position in the indie-pop scene. It presents a must-listen anthem that effortlessly combines relatable storytelling with an empowering groove, celebrating self-worth triumph over deceit, manipulation, and unwavering conviction. It makes it a fitting addition to your playlist and reminds us that sometimes, the best revenge is living one’s most authentic life.

Michael Soul hides from being open with new release “Hiding”
Michael Soul’s new single, “Hiding,” is a dark, hypnotic electronic track that takes listeners to a private place in their minds where they are alone, thinking, and feeling upset. “Hiding” was written when the author was very lonely. Michael Soul turns days of being alone, when silence seemed to last forever, and connection seemed impossible, into an immersive sound.
Andrea Mastroiacovo’s polished work makes the single even better, clarifying and deepening the song’s dark mood. The production carefully reflects that emotional weight with simple textures and dark electronic sounds that make you feel like you’re alone with your thoughts.
“Hiding” is a song about feeling alone, scared, and wanting to hide from being open. It asks questions that are quiet but sharp, like why do we hide what we feel? How does fear ruin love? And can we stop going in circles of misunderstanding and emotional distance? These echoes linger long after the track ends, prolonging the sound.

Grace Doty lights up the sky with new release “Sunset Colors”
Grace Doty’s newest single, “Sunset Colors,” takes listeners to golden-hour skies and quiet coastal roads from the start. Doty takes the emotional honesty of girl-pop from the late 1990s and early 2000s and gives it a softer, more modern look. “Sunset Colors” starts with a delicate mix of guitar and synth that makes the sound feel both dreamy and new.
“Sunset Colors” is about the feeling of falling in love for the first time, which happens naturally and without any effort, like the colors of a sunset sky slowly blending. Doty’s stories use this simplicity to let the feelings breathe rather than smother them.
“Sunset Colors” was made in her home studio along the Connecticut shoreline, the warm, atmospheric textures make you feel like you’re in the ocean air, and the music has a calm, quiet evening feel.
