Rags And Riches – “Wisdom”
Hailing from Lexington, this pop-rock duo of brothers Tanner and Peyton Whitt grew up with music-loving parents, who exposed them to different kinds of music. In their early teens, they bought them a drum and electric guitar and they started playing in church. Since forming in 2017 they’ve won several music awards and shared the stage with Fitz & The Tantrums and Smash Mouth. Inspired by Queen, Imagine Dragons and Post Malone, they released their debut “Speed Of Sound” in 2019.
Encouraging the listener to deal with obstacles in their life without falling down, their new single instills the faith that you can achieve anything if you put your mind to it. Taken from their same-titled EP, the song is a timeless amalgam of various influences. Starting with an ascending synth and leading to an almost tribal drum, the verse vocals are more storytelling in nature. Coming to life in the catchy melodic chorus, this bouncy track is brimming with an upbeat sound of hope.

Nora Mae – “How Didn’t You, Though?”
Born as the granddaughter of the legendary Eartha Kitt, Rachel Shapiro is a singer and songwriter who grew up in the music industry. From watching her grandmother perform on tour aged 5 to embracing anything to do with performing like vocal coaching and guitar lessons, music has always been a staple. Listening to lots of jazz and 50s/60s pop, she’s created an unique musical style. Inspired by Billie Holiday, Nancy Sinatra and Alicia Keys, she debuted with “Rendezvous” in 2022.
Singing about believing in someone so much that finding out that trust was a fantasy can be devastating, her new single takes us down the rabbit hole of disappointment. Taking some sultry jazz and blending it with retro-styled pop, she forges a smooth, seductive melody. With a propulsive rhythm, balmy bass and sweltering guitars conjuring a spellbinding sound, it’s her alluring vocals telling her introspective story, that create a captivating tune filled with sensual authenticity.
