Why Don't You Call Me.mp3

“Special Occasion” is a rousing, heart-on-sleeve folk-rock anthem about quitting the habit of saving your best for “someday.” Sung by a guy who finally figures out that scuffed boots, spilled wine, and Tuesday-night tuxedo T-shirts are worth it because simply being alive is the only red-carpet event that matters. It’s equal parts wake-up call and celebration; perfect for singing loud with the windows down or slow-dancing in the kitchen.

Check Engine Heart – Track Story

“Check Engine Heart” is a high-energy, emotionally charged track about warning signs, self-awareness, and raw vulnerability. It blends Mayzon’s gritty country-rock edge, Taryn’s neon-lit K-pop emotion, and Knox’s glitch-driven chaos into a song that’s both introspective and explosive.

Mayzon Jard drives the narrative with heartfelt, rugged vocals, telling the story of recognizing the warning signs in one’s heart—moments of emotional strain, love, and tension. His guitar riffs act like the heartbeat itself: pulsing, urgent, and raw.

Taryn Del Laney adds cinematic, soaring K-pop vocals, highlighting the emotional stakes. Her melodic lines turn internal warning signals into anthemic moments of reflection and hope.

Knox Jard injects chaotic glitch elements—distorted beats, vocal stutters, and unexpected drops—symbolizing the unpredictability of emotions and the internal turbulence that comes with matters of the heart.
