Lucy Woodward Releases New Single, “Always”
Always is a meditation on connection that endures across time, distance, and change. These lasting bonds root us to the world and to the lives we’ve lived, ensuring that “we will be always,” leaving traces that echo in the earth long after we’re gone. The song features Lucy’s friend, American singer‑songwriter Chris Pierce — a blues‑steeped troubadour whose voice Lucy immediately heard for the background vocals after the song was complete.

Mark Lettieri & Purbayan Chatterjee Release New Single, “9000 Miles”
“9000 Miles” speaks to the literal and emotional distance between my home in Mumbai and Mark’s home in Fort Worth. The piece begins with a simple riff, an idea that arrived almost innocently. But that riff slowly rises and expands, metaphorically covering the 9,000 miles between us. As the composition develops, it moves into jazz-funk territory, where Mark’s deep groove language meets my Indian syncopations and Carnatic-inspired rhythmic thought. It is not just about geography; it is also about convergence.
