“Someday” by Lina Fouro stirs a heartfelt ballad of love, grief, and a soaring legacy of memories
Lina Fouro boldly embraces her vulnerability and never hesitates to leverage her incredibly personal experiences in her newest single, “Someday.” The song invites listeners to explore her heart in a beautifully unfiltered and broken form that resonates in the mind long after the final note. Emerging from Toronto’s dynamic music scene, Lina Fouro transmutes her profound grief into a universal healing anthem inspired by the sacrifice and resilience inherent in a mother’s love. It’s a stirring tribute to her late mother, who intimately and monumentally influenced her life and artistry.
The compelling piano motif in “Someday” sparks a conversation with hopeful memories, enveloping audiences in an emotional yet gentle storm. The haunting melody floats above a minimalistic pop production, allowing Lina’s crystalline vocals to take center stage, unwavering and rich with unspoken emotion. The lyrics possess a poetic gravitas, particularly with phrases such as “You and I will meet someday,” capturing both the ache of absence and the promise of eventual reunion. This artistry avoids pretentiousness, enhancing the theme of remembrance without slipping into sentimentality.
The chorus evokes a healing vibe, acting as an earworm driven by genuine sincerity rather than a flashy hook. It aligns perfectly with the song’s tender narrative, crafted with the expertise of only someone who has truly loved and experienced loss. Recorded at Newcomb Studios, which overlooks the serene expanse of Lake Ontario, this location provides an ideal creative sanctuary. Every element, from the subtle orchestral swells to the crisp clarity of the instrumental mix, feels intentionally crafted to preserve the song’s emotional purity.
Visually, Lina’s collaboration with director John Petrella and producer Kice Soroor elevates “Someday” into a multi-sensory experience. The music video, released through Moviedom World, mirrors the song’s tone: soft, introspective, and rich with symbolism that nods to memory, legacy, and maternal love.
“Someday” is a sonic keepsake highlighting Lina Fouro’s growth as a songwriter. Those navigating the murky waters left behind by grief without allowing it to define them will find a part of themselves in this music. Lina Fouro offers a moment of shared understanding, reminding listeners that love, especially a mother’s, never truly fades; it simply evolves, transcending time and distance, as echoed in melodies like this.

North Shy leaves imperfection exposed with “i’ve” from the EP “aftermath”
There is something deeply compelling about an artist willing to leave imperfections exposed, and in the “aftermath,” North Shy does exactly that. Created entirely by 24-year-old singer, songwriter, and producer Kieran Garing from his bedroom in Lafayette, Indiana, the six-track EP feels raw in the best possible way, intimate, restless, and emotionally unguarded. Rather than polishing away the pain, North Shy leans into it, allowing every song to sound like a late-night thought spiraling out of control.
From the opening seconds of “I Meant to call,” the EP immediately pulls listeners into its atmosphere. The track bursts forward with energetic drums and mild hi-hats before unexpectedly melting into a calmer, soothing rhythm. It is an impressive introduction that not only highlights North Shy’s textured, emotionally expressive vocal delivery but also establishes the project’s emotional unpredictability. The transitions feel natural, almost like emotional waves crashing into each other without warning.
What makes “aftermath” stand out is how cohesive the emotional storytelling feels across its 20-minute runtime. The project moves through obsession, regret, resentment, memories, and acceptance without ever sounding forced or overly theatrical. Instead, every moment feels lived-in. There is no attempt to romanticize heartbreak here. North Shy presents emotional exhaustion exactly as it exists, messy, repetitive, and difficult to escape.
One of the most memorable moments arrives with the closing track “i’ve,” opening with the striking line, “you said you never meant to hurt but you, yeah, you always do.“ It is the kind of lyric that instantly cuts through the noise because of its directness and relatability. The song closes the project beautifully, not with resolution, but with emotional honesty. With the “aftermath,” North Shy proves that great music does not require massive studios or industry machinery. Sometimes, all it takes is vulnerability, sleepless nights, and the courage to document the emotional wreckage left behind.

E.G. Phillips unveils where silence speaks the loudest on new release “Empathy for the Night Fly”
The mood of E.G. PHILLIPS’s “Empathy for the Night Fly” is instantly cinematic, dark, introspective, and frozen in time. The track sounds like a scene from a late-night club where everything slows down just enough for feelings to come out. The arrangement is jazz-like in that it lets each part breathe. The arpeggiating Rhodes piano comes and goes, giving the impression that the music is thinking, as if it’s moving.
The song is really about recognition, which is when you hear something in someone else’s voice that reminds you of your own experience. It’s subtle, almost fragile, but it has a big effect on people. That emotional connection is what holds the piece together.
That choice seems deliberate, even defiant. It asks the listener to pay attention differently, not just passively. Every break is a part of the story. E.G. Phillips doesn’t just make the mood; he keeps it going. In that space, “Empathy for the Night Fly” becomes a quiet, powerful look at memory, connection, and shared feelings.
