We had the pleasure of interviewing Sam MacPherson Zoom video!

Renowned LA by-way-of New Jersey singer-songwriter Sam MacPherson is excited to announce that his sophomore EP Powerlines will be released on Friday, April 14 via Elektra Records. In celebration of the forthcoming effort, MacPherson today released “Stretch,” a cathartic and introspective new single about finding love, that will appear on the record (full tracklist below). Taking flight on shimmering keys with a hypnotic hook, the song showcases a more upbeat side of the artist’s sound. “‘Stretch’ is about looking inwards, and realizing your capacity for love and human emotion,” MacPherson commented. The theme of longing for love and connection can be found throughout Powerlines; the 8-track EP’s title is a nod to how (literal) powerlines are able to keep us in touch with the people we love.

In support of the new offering, MacPherson be kicking off his first-ever headline tour across the U.S. this spring. Titled for the EP’s namesake, the “Powerlines Tour” commences in Washington, D.C. on Monday, April 17, and hits in major cities including New York, Boston, Nashville, and San Francisco, before wrapping in Los Angeles on Friday, May 19, with a special show the famed Troubadour. Tickets are currently on-sale on MacPherson’s official website, and a full itinerary of shows can be found below. The forthcoming run of dates follows MacPherson’s successful last year of touring, where he sold out his first hometown headline show (House of Independents in Asbury Park, NJ) and opened for Jake Scott all throughout the U.S. Previously, MacPherson has also shared stages with the likes of Chelsea Cutler and The Brook &amp; The Bluff, and collaborated with a diverse array of acts including RIAA Platinum Certified artist Stephen Sanchez.

Hailed as one of the top New Jersey artists to hear in 2023, you’ll hang on to every word MacPherson sings. His unfiltered, honest musicality has quietly affirmed him as a notable artist on the ascent, who show no signs of slowing down any time soon.

ABOUT SAM MACPHERSON:

Hailing from Red Bank, MacPherson absorbed the no-nonsense New Jersey spirit from his surroundings, while his songwriter father gave him a love for music. At college, he taught himself how to play guitar, produce, write songs, and record on his own, approaching music with the same grit and determination he brought to athletics as a division one soccer player.

Following early uploads such as “No Bad Memories,” MacPherson initially gained traction with the alluring, heartbreaking single “Routine” in 2021. Beyond landing on coveted playlists, it cracked 6M+ streams and garnered praise among music blogs. He also served up the beloved Songs for Sam EP highlighted by “Last Minute,” which lit up TikTok and surpassed 10M streams. He carried this momentum into 2022 with singles like “Crash Course” and “Rookie.” Signing to Elektra Records, MacPherson will make his major label debut with Powerlines, his anticipated sophomore EP out on Friday, April 14.

Malia Civetz - End Of The Road

A FUN COVER/RE-IMAGINATION OF ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS BY NEW FOUND GLORY FEATURING THE AMAZING MAIYA SYKES ON VOCALS.

Head On Collision (SLOANE COVER)

Love it when you talk like that,
When you need something
Breathe your words down my back
Tattoo chills on my skin 
Love it when you talk like that
When you need something
You ain’t even have to ask
You could take it from me



Wrap your hands around my neck
Tell me I’m your favorite
Let me know that I belong to you
Light me like ya cigarette
Smoke it til there’s nothing left
Show me everything you want to do



It’s written in your eyes it’s all I see
Come and taste the fire you started in me
Let me be your darkest fantasy
Know you want it like that, like that, like that, like that, like that
Feels so good to be bad yeah

(Drop)

Feel your thoughts on my tongue
Taste your emotions
Take the life from my lungs
Drown in your ocean
Use me up until I’m numb
you have my devotion
Sacrifice for your love
I’m begging you just

Wrap your hands around my neck
Tell me I’m your favorite
Let me know that I belong to you
Light me like ya cigarette
Smoke it til there’s nothing left
Show me everything you want to do


It’s written in your eyes it’s all I see
Come and taste the fire you started in me
Let me be your darkest fantasy
Know you want it like that, like that, like that, like that, like that
Feels so good to be bad yeah

It’s written in your eyes it’s all I see
Come and taste the fire you started in me
Let me be your darkest fantasy
Know you want it like that, like that, like that, like that, like that
Feels so good to be bad yeah

GOOD TO BE BAD

Did my own version of this beautiful Sasha Sloan song. Really connected with the lyrics and am constantly striving to make the most of each day while I am able to live and create.

things i never said

​​We had the opportunity to interview Leon of Athens on Zoom with video!
​​
​​Please share while we are #togetherathome ​🏠​
​​
​​"London based indie-pop star Leon of Athens channels the flamboyant beauty of Sufjan Stevens and Francis & the Lights, alongside a similar widescreen pop sensibility as Lauv and MARINA, who he has both supported. His album Xenos (EMI/Universal) is a beautiful, thoughtful piece of work. It showcases just why he has become a big live draw across Europe and his rising profile in the USA where he has been confirmed to appear at SXSW, Okeechobee, Firefly Music Festival, Summerfest and Shaky Knees. The album follows the highly acclaimed release of his debut album Global, championed by the likes of The Guardian, NME, Q, New York Times and more. It is produced by David Kosten (Bat For Lashes, Everything Everything) and is informed lyrically by the refugee crisis, the rise of the far-right in Europe and the US, but also personal upheavals: fractured relationships, lost faith, youth, freedom, and death.” - Spotify 
​​
​​PRAISE FOR LEON OF ATHENS
​​“Brainy pop inspired by Bernardo Bertolucci, inflected with electronic, folk and other flavours” – The Guardian
​​“Leon of Athens has mastered the art of electronica-tickled, horn-smattered, melodic pop.” – NME
​​“The Greek god of indie-pop” – Wonderland
​​“In this place where tragedy was invented, the song was joyful and sadly cathartic.” – New York Times
