Sandra Mae Lux sparks warm joyride with “Are We Having Fun”

HonkMagazineDefault3

Sandra Mae Lux immortalizes music with her new single, “Are We Having Fun. ” It’s reflecting on where you’ve been and getting lost in a groove that is as thoughtful as needed. From the first note, “Are We Having Fun” has a satin, retro-find elegance. Lux floats her voice through a plush soundscape, seamlessly mixing funk, soul, and smooth jazz elements into something vintage and fresh.

There’s an understated elegance here, a melodic wink that every listener takes a moment and checks in with themselves. Are we having fun or just pretending to? Inspired by her love of storytelling, Lux gives the track genuine emotion. “I love songs that evoke something in me,” she explains, and that outlook is writ large on this record. The track unfolds almost cinematic-like Lux is multitasking, taking us through late-night city drives, wistful bops, and melancholic joy. It’s music for deep thinkers and dancers, too.

Her delivery is full of warmth, playfulness, power, balance, and restraint, showing that she knows when to hold back and allow herself to fly. Every lyric feels considered, ensconced in instrumentation that glitters with vintage delicacy Rhodes keys, silky basslines, and a rhythm section that knows it can sway without yelling. Yet its sincerity makes “Are We Having Fun” really shine. It’s a song that wants to be sung, which is why it resonates above all.

Sandra Mae Lux has created a song that poses a question and resonates in your mind long after the last note dies, gently nudging you to answer it for yourself. Whether cruising solo or dancing with someone you love, this song is your soundtrack to a joyful night of introspection.

Aaron Fisher cranks the volume on emotion and energy for “Deliverance”

HonkMagazineDefault2

Turn the volume up and hold on tight. Aaron Fisher’s new single “Deliverance” is a high-octane ride of raw energy, crisp guitar work, and an absolute chorus meant to be blasted from car windows and living room speakers alike.

“Deliverance” enters with an authoritative zap and delivers what listeners yearn for with a high-impact track that earns its landing. Fisher’s voice is most expressive when he hangs the notes in the chorus, allowing emotion to drip through every moment while the guitar hums and howls in perfect confluence. There’s something so deep and satisfying about how that sustained vocal line locks into place with the instrumentals. It’s one part built for live shows, blaring speakers, and cathartic singalongs.

However, the beauty of “Deliverance” is in its gratuitous fun. It’s solemn but never overly so. You can pump this one loud and still hear the freedom in it, a certain kind of song you’d score your victories to or lean on during long drives with only the open road and your thoughts. The chorus, in particular, is as catchy and anthemic as the kind of song you can’t stop humming for hours afterward.

There’s also a palpable chemistry between Fisher’s voice and the guitar. The elements flow as one, constructing a pulse with your head bobbing from start to end. The track beckons listeners to a feat that stands accomplished with this much ease on every song. In a world deep to its gills with background music and algorithm-fed noise, “Deliverance” carves through with intent. Aaron Fisher is making experiences. And here, with this track, he’s provided a reason to crank it up and return to it repeatedly.
