Shara Strand delivers a soul-stirring ballad with her recent single “Anthem”

Shara Strand pours her heart and soul into her new single, “Anthem.” This soaring, soul-stirring declaration of resilience and empowerment features a modern pop/folk sensibility that sees Shara stepping back into the spotlight with purpose and passion for liberation. From the first note, “Anthem” captivates listeners with its rich instrumentation and evocative melodies, setting the stage for Shara’s beautiful yet heartfelt vocal delivery.

Recorded at Engine Room Studios in NYC, “Anthem” results from meticulous craftsmanship. Produced by Rebbel and engineered by Gregory Fils-Aime, the soundscape has been sculpted to complement Shara’s emotional intensity perfectly. Every beat, every chord, and every rise and fall in the music mirrors the song’s central theme of finding strength in the storm.

Lyrically, “Anthem” is deeply personal yet universally relatable. It speaks to the moments we feel lost, only to rediscover our power and the courage to rise in the face of adversity. When the chorus hits, it’s impossible not to feel uplifted as she embodies these words with an unwavering belief in herself. Her voice, reminiscent of powerhouse legends like Whitney Houston and Celine Dion, carries an emotional weight that makes every lyric resonate deeply.

What sets “Anthem” apart is its authenticity. It’s not just another pop ballad; it’s a triumphant awakening for anyone who has ever felt knocked down. Whether you need a song to inspire or remind you of your inner fire, “Anthem” is poised to deliver. With this release, Shara Strand solidifies her position as an artist who isn’t afraid to be vulnerable, bold, and, most importantly, honest. If “Anthem” indicates what’s to come from her debut album, we are in for something truly special.

Album Review

Paul Terry, Aptøsrs & Cellarscape unite on bold new album “Alternative Piano Club”

Combining his three artistic alter egos, Paul Terry presents an awe-inspiring new 12-track album, “Alternative Piano Club,” written in collaboration with Aptøsrs and Cellarscape. This is an album-length voyage of music that blends acoustic, rock, and piano-driven cinematic sounds.

Torn between this complex emotional spectrum, all the while the piano remains at its core throughout. Paul Terry opens his “Memento Mori (Chromogenic Phase)” contemplatively, creating a solemn, reflective mood. Cellarscape’s “Three Years Of Roses“ is warmer, whereas Aptøsrs’ “Questionnaires“ is much more textured as a large, sculptural post-rock.

“Dave’s Theme,” written by Paul Terry, musically expands the narrative with a touch of cinematic elevation that aligns well. “We Shape The Clouds” by Cellarscape is fluffy and heart-warming, “Writers Behind The Curtain” is somber, more narrative. We are all together in “A Place We Made,” an honest, intimate, emotionally grounded space.

The project contains vocal warmth and cultural depth in the song “This Is My Home“ by Silas Miami & Lana Crowster. Proceeding in a totally different direction is the stronger emotional clarity of Paul Terry’s acoustic storytelling on “Any Time You Want To Fly” and “No Sleep Has Come.” Cellarscape presents a wide, spacious atmospheric moment in “Cygnus,” while Aptøsrs ends with “Rust Mountain (Monochrome Piano Version),” a simple gem that brings the project full circle.

The mixing of Sam Okell and Adam Noble, the mastering of Alex Wharton and Robin Schmidt have, in many ways, brought their polish to it while still making it feel human. “Alternative Piano Club” is a work entity, where three musical personalities met and talk mind in the same emotional language.
