Yarwood Releases New Single “Mr. Rain”
Yarwood’s new single, “Mr. Rain,” is out now on @groundupmusicny! "Mr. Rain" is an Afro-fusion love song that combines Ghanaian highlife and jazz to explore the frustration of romantic longing. The track portrays a man whose journey to his lover is blocked by rain. Beyond the literal storm, the rain serves as a metaphor for life's obstacles—financial hardship, distance, and timing—that test a couple's connection. Musically, melodic guitars and Ghanaian percussion establish its highlife identity, while expressive drums, saxophone, and fluid bass lines add jazz sophistication and emotional depth. Through heartfelt storytelling and lush instrumentation, "Mr. Rain" ultimately celebrates hope, perseverance, and love during difficult seasons.

Lucy Woodward Releases New Single “In My Room (Live)”
“In My Room (Live)” is a hideout — a sanctuary from the world's noise. It lives in the tension between the freedom of solitude and the ache of isolation, using imagination to sit with hard feelings while something in you still reaches for connection. The track's dance pulse mirrors the moves we only make when no one's watching. Lucy and her band, The Rocketeers, cut it live in the studio, capturing 95% in a single take before she wrote the lyrics afterward. It was recorded for her I Need To Roam album, but after months of playing it on the road — where it found a wilder, more vibrant dance feel — Lucy decided to release a live version too, filmed during a live video shoot.
