In The Spotlight

MT Jones – “In My Arms”

Sharing time between Liverpool and London, this British singer and songwriter started playing piano aged 8 and added songwriting at 13. Naturally drawn to 60s music, he’s inspired by music from The Beatles to the jazz of Ray Charles and the classic Motown soul of Stevie Wonder. He traveled the world as a musician and debuted his own soul-infused sound on “I Won’t Even Say Goodbye” in 2022.

Transporting your ears back to the glory years of soul, his new single is an honey-dipped smooth groove. With a mild percussion guiding the melody along and laid-back guitar adding a splash of color, it’s the luxuriant layers of breezy violins and sweet harmonies that blend together as a unified whole. And with his smoky vocals crooning about not letting someone down, this jam oozes elegance.

Mira Housey – “Psychic”

Hailing from Detroit, this gifted singer and songwriter was competing playing classical piano aged 7. Since then she began writing songs for her friends. She studied sound technology at the University of Michigan and started a band. After winning two songwriting competitions, she moved to L.A.. Inspired by Max Martin, Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande, she released her debut EP “April” in 2019.

Written, recorded and produced in her bedroom, her new single tackles the sometimes perplexing topic of relation-ships that can change unexpectedly. By taking the route of an infectious pop melody, she adds a sparkle to this layered tune. From the relentless guitar plucks and the crisp piano, to the anthemic rush of the dazzling chorus and her striking vocals, this stunning jam will last forever.
