Meg Pfeiffer breaks the mold with soulful new single “My Man”
In a music scene filled with hits and industry pressure, Meg Pfeiffer is carving out her path. Her latest song, “My Man,” is a smooth love ballad that celebrates creativity and staying true to herself. Teaming up with her husband, the talented guitarist Luca Stricagnoli, Pfeiffer has created a song that showcases their combined passion for music. Living in Nashville, they’ve built a life together, along with their music label that gives them complete control over their work. They don’t need anyone else to define their sound, it’s all about their unique artistic vision.
“My Man” grabs your attention with a blend of classic and fresh sounds. Pfeiffer’s voice shifts effortlessly from soft and tender to strong and powerful, capturing the essence of love while also expressing strength. Stricagnoli’s captivating guitar playing, utilizing a unique device they developed called the Guitar Ring, adds a special touch that sets the song apart without overpowering it. The track feels like a heartfelt discussion between two musicians who are confident in who they are and where they’re headed. There’s an underlying spirit of independence in every chord and word, reminding listeners that great music can be created outside of mainstream expectations. It remains catchy and relatable, perfect for a wide range of music lovers.
Both Pfeiffer and Stricagnoli are proud members of the Recording Academy, but they’ve opted to take a different route than the big record labels. “My Man” exemplifies that being genuine is a powerful way to create music that truly connects with people. Whether you’re into romantic songs, appreciate a bit of rebellion, or love well-crafted music that leaves an impression, “My Man” is worth a listen. It’s a powerful statement about artistic freedom.

French Inhaler explores desire and disconnection through “TV LOVE”
Chicago trio French Inhaler make a bold start with “TV LOVE,” the first single from their upcoming album “Practiced Lines.” It’s a song that finds a band able to make contemporary fears danceable but also think deeply about them with post-punk urgency and synth-pop atmosphere.
The song is about the gap between people’s desires and reality, and about the contradictions of living in an age of hyper-connectivity but emotional disconnection. “TV LOVE” opens with a cold sound built on mechanical drum grooves, melodic basslines, and synth textures. The production is deliberately tight and precise, mirroring themes threaded throughout the song.
Everything combines to create a tension that draws you into a world where connection is increasingly mediated by screens, expectations, and distorted perceptions. In terms of vocals, the performance is perfectly suited to the aesthetic of the track, somewhere between detachment and openness. “TV LOVE” is a primer for “Practiced Lines” and demonstrates that French Inhaler is a band with a defined artistic identity and a strong sense of purpose. It’s an immersive, stylish, and thought-provoking record that lingers, cementing the Chicago trio as a promising new voice in the modern post-punk and synth-pop scene.
