Laura Meets Musicians

Enjoy my favorite picks from Indie Music world released in July/August 2022, in chronological order! "KHOYA" - SAAZ - India (released on July 1st) "'KHOYA' talks about the feeling of Getting Lost. Lost in the dark where there is no way and hope. This song is a monologue narrated by that lost soul who is not able to find the direction where to move ahead. I'm pretty sure everyone has gone through such a phase. So he starts requesting Energy in which he has faith. And then suddenly he finds the ray of hope which will guide him. We all have faith and believe in that one thing whom we trust so much. Either it is in a person in, Energy, in God, in Nature or it can be Anything. In which you believe and you share with them everything that's inside you without any hesitation. Because you know that person or soul won't gonna judge you and you just let all your's feelings and emotion out. I hope this song helps you to get out of those dark days ...

Enjoy my favorite picks from Indie Music world released in May 2022, in chronological order! "OLYMPIA" - Jillian Lake - Vancouver, Canada (released on May 5th) Jillian Lake, mixes velvet sounds and big feelings to transport you into her world of sweet sorrow in a way that will make you want to take your broken heart out dancing. Her latest single "Olympia" flourished from a feeling, capturing the carefree essence of driving with the windows down. Bright, colourful synths, feel-good, sunshine melodies and an energetic beat inject you with a dose of youthful vitality, spreading a smile across your face from cheek to cheek. The artist explains, "Olympia forever will be the song that almost didn’t make the album… This one was such a tricky one for me as I was torn between making it a single or scrapping it all together. This song was a later addition to the record, we wanted to make a fun one - however therein lies the beginning of the problems for me… I was ...

One of the very cool things that social media can do, if well used, is to make you discover musicians from every part of the world. I'm very happy to welcome on my blog artists coming from all the five continents (yeah, if you know some cool indie musicians from Antarctica let me know lol). Earlier in 2021, Instagram made me meet an awesome pianist from Indonesia, Veronika Wen . She is extremely talented with piano, and suddenly impressed me with her sweet voice and kind personality. She is always super supportive to the indie musicians I feature on my profile and I think she really got the spirit of the Laura Meets Musicians project - a place where it's not just me supporting musicians but also musicians supporting to each other. That's why I'm honoured to introduce her to you all, because she definitely deserves a shoutout!  Veronika Wen isn't just a pianist but also a singer, composer, songwriter and piano teacher. I highly recommend to check her YouTube out, h...
