In The Spotlight

Visen – “Copenhagen”

Consisting of Danish-American singer and songwriter Ari Alexander and jazz guitarist Cecil Alexander, this duo began making music together while attending Berklee College Of Music in Boston. Ari grew up listening to jazz artists such as Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald, while Cecil found his roots in Jimi Hendrix and Wes Montgomery. They debuted their nostalgic jazzy sound on “Counting Sheep” in 2019.

Enriching their retro jazz stylings with some surf-rock sensibilities, their new single celebrates the city where they fell in love. Captivating from the very first drum beat, this vintage-touched, guitar-driven melody provides a rich, magical soundscape for her smooth-as-silk vocals to reminisce about the start of their lasting love. And with a bustling guitar-solo, this is a mesmerizing, vintage tune.

Peach Tree Rascals – “Good Advice”

Hailing from San Jose, this quintet of musical friends formed while they were in high school. Consisting of Isaac Pech, Dominic Pizano, Tarrek Abdel-Khaliq, Joseph Barros and Jorge Olazaba, they played together for fun for three years, before focusing on a serious career. Influenced by the likes of Kendrick Lamar, Frank Ocean and John Mayer, they debuted their funky hiphop blend on “Glide” in 2018.

Written about the feeling of having to make decisions to please others, rather than trusting your gut, their new single delivers their advice wrapped in uplifting vibes. First dishing out some smooth grooves from a fresh piano, the song quickly comes alive with a funky beat and soul-touched vocals. And with a touch of rap, joyous handclaps and a shiny pop feel, this catchy sunlit jam is just peachy.
