  <div class="message"><h2>AVA SYMONE</h2><p><i>Ava Symone Is a Rising Star Who’s Giving Pop and R&amp;B a Caribbean Soul</i></p><p data-start="276" data-end="749">Born and raised by the sea, Ava Symone doesn’t just sing music—she <em data-start="343" data-end="353"><i>breathes</i></em> it. Hailing from the Bahamas, this singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist infuses her work with the rich textures of her island roots while daring to stretch far beyond them. Her sound is a genre-blurring tapestry—part Caribbean rhythm, part emotional R&amp;B, and part daring alt-pop. It's global, yet grounded. Bold, yet intimate. In a crowded pop landscape, Ava is carving her own shoreline.</p><img src="//images.zoogletools.com/s:bzglfiles/u/149585/b1f579a7192ef1668dd195ca8f1911567ea0fa05/original/ava-4.png/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==" class="size_m justify_right border_" height="1216" /><p data-start="751" data-end="1390">Though she only began releasing music in 2023, Ava Symone has moved with the precision and purpose of an artist who knows exactly who she is. Her debut single, “Why,” released in September 2023, set the tone: a haunting track with vintage ‘80s flair that wrapped emotional vulnerability in cinematic synths. It was a whisper that became a siren song. By November, she returned with “Hope You Know,” a breezy, contemporary R&amp;B groove that lingers in your mind long after the last note. Catchy without trying too hard, the track showed Ava’s ability to craft hooks that feel like conversations you’ve had in your head a hundred times before.</p><p data-start="1392" data-end="1995">Then came “Paper Cut” in February 2024—a turning point in her sonic storytelling. The track seamlessly blended Afro-Caribbean rhythms with an urban pulse, highlighting her natural ability to move between genres without ever feeling like a tourist. “Dopamine,” released in March 2024, proved she wasn’t afraid to take risks. With roaring electric guitars and an alt-pop edge that brings to mind early Willow Smith, this track finds Ava pushing boundaries—and sticking the landing. It’s chaotic in the best way, raw, and unapologetically experimental. It's also, without question, one of her best to date.</p><p data-start="1997" data-end="2458">By July 2024, Ava had returned with “2 Pills and a Red Cup,” another rich fusion of tropical sway and gritty R&amp;B. This is Ava in her pocket—confident, cool, and culturally rooted. Then came “One More Time” in November, her most overtly Caribbean track to date. It’s a love letter to the islands and a sonic passport for listeners unfamiliar with the pulse of Bahamian life. Sun-drenched, rhythm-heavy, and emotionally honest, it’s Ava’s heritage turned up loud.</p><img src="//images.zoogletools.com/s:bzglfiles/u/149585/67fef3d735d3cbc395a8d1324d2ba804b821ff70/original/ava-3.png/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==" class="size_s justify_left border_" height="726" /><p data-start="2460" data-end="2753">In 2025, Ava showed her softer side with “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/track/4V0EWOz6kt6A9GZ9gTEMOa?si=e95d90ca3bb2453d" target="_blank" data-link-type="url">Side by Side,</a>” a stripped-down acoustic ballad released in February. The song is a testament to her vocal command—airy yet powerful, intimate yet expansive. It's here we hear her not just as a songwriter, but as a vocalist with serious range and soul.</p><p data-start="2755" data-end="3047">Then came the firestarter: “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/track/2pDPvAthEHyvumbCCIazMf?si=eddd5d18619045d5" target="_blank" data-link-type="url">H.O.T. (Half of That)</a>,” released in June 2025. Wordplay, cadence, and swagger meet elegance on a track that demands—and rewards—multiple listens. This is Ava Symone at her most self-assured. It’s no wonder the song’s on repeat in playlists from Nassau to New York.</p><p data-start="3049" data-end="3473">But perhaps where Ava shines most is in the raw energy of her live performances. You don’t have to squint through grainy YouTube clips for long to realize: Ava’s the real deal. She owns the stage with the same mix of poise and fire that defines her recordings. Her live vocals are crisp, her musicianship obvious, and her connection with the audience undeniable. She’s not just performing; she’s inviting you into her world.</p><a class="no-pjax" href="https://youtu.be/aORXasrbRe4?si=Rx-UxXUH3VrvPXcx" target="_blank"><img src="//images.zoogletools.com/s:bzglfiles/u/149585/36ea2387507af80a2b522d315c00fb1ec2a9b028/original/ava.png/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==" class="size_l justify_right border_" height="919" width="1260" /></a><p data-start="3475" data-end="3787">And what a refreshing world it is. In an era where shock value too often eclipses substance, Ava Symone is proving you don’t need explicit lyrics or over-sexualized visuals to leave a lasting impression. Her music is proof that vulnerability can be powerful, and culture can be cool without being commercialized.</p><p data-start="3789" data-end="3969">Ava Symone isn’t just another indie artist on the rise—she’s a movement waiting to catch wind. And if her recent output is any indication, the tide is already turning in her favor.</p><p data-start="3971" data-end="4038">We’re watching. We’re listening. And we can’t wait for what’s next.</p><h3><a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3oSahfEA0uF45NQOEM5DTW?si=HNQTpJvETk-JlSpbNfzC5A" target="_blank" data-link-type="url">SPOTIFY</a></h3><h3><a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.instagram.com/avasmusix/" target="_blank" data-link-type="url">INSTAGRAM</a></h3><h3><a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.avasymonemusic.com/" target="_blank" data-link-type="url">WEBSITE</a></h3><h3><a class="no-pjax" href="https://youtu.be/aORXasrbRe4?si=Rx-UxXUH3VrvPXcx" target="_blank" data-link-type="url">YOUTUBE</a></h3><p style="text-align:center;"> </p><div class="video-container size_xl justify_center" style=""><iframe data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="-g207CjtJYc" data-video-thumb-url="" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-g207CjtJYc?rel=0&amp;wmode=transparent&amp;enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div><p style="text-align:center;"> </p></div>

With roots that stretch from a church choir in Greensboro, North Carolina to jam sessions in Los Angeles, Hawkins is no overnight success. He’s a product of patience, precision, and a whole lot of soul. His new EP, <a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/2Oi2dJFT5x5I4AddeblC7i" target="_blank" data-link-type="url">Love Hate</a>, isn’t just a music release—it’s a revelation. A genre-blurring, emotionally rich body of work that announces the arrival of an artist who is here to stay.</p><img src="//images.zoogletools.com/s:bzglfiles/u/149585/7ff10cfd036412f87d6450ef410d2f9afe1d5d17/original/465186609-949712726977527-4120333728491112106-n.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==" class="size_m justify_left border_" height="1800" /><p data-start="596" data-end="1180">Born and raised in the South, Hawkins grew up surrounded by the melodies of gospel music and the echoes of classic soul. The church was his first stage, where he learned how to captivate an audience—not with tricks, but with truth. That early education in raw emotion and performance is still present in every note he sings and every chord he plays. But Hawkins had bigger dreams than choir robes and Sunday solos. When he moved to Southern California for school, something shifted. The energy of L.A.—its chaotic beauty and creative spirit—was electric. And Hawkins plugged right in.</p><p data-start="1182" data-end="1640">“I came out here for school,” he’s said, “but I stayed for the music.” And it’s a good thing he did. Los Angeles became the soil where his sound could finally bloom. A sound that sits somewhere between the velvet textures of R&amp;B and the bold, electric cries of rock and soul. Prince is a guiding star. Jimi Hendrix, a spiritual ancestor. John Mayer, a modern muse. Hawkins doesn’t mimic them—he channels their essence and makes it something entirely his own.</p><p data-start="1642" data-end="2221">At just 24 years old, Hawkins has found his lane—and he’s not driving, he’s flying. <em data-start="1726" data-end="1744"><i>Heart Won’t Stop</i></em> is a testament to years of quiet grinding, late-night writing sessions, and fearless experimenting. It’s a bold, cohesive project that manages to sound both timeless and completely fresh. Each track flows like a stream of consciousness, yet nothing feels rushed. Hawkins is in full command: vocally rich, emotionally vulnerable, and endlessly dynamic. There’s a subtle rasp to his tone that pulls you in, a warmth that makes every lyric feel personal—even when it’s universal.</p><img src="//images.zoogletools.com/s:bzglfiles/u/149585/f5e45a8fdd878f40a0b4b133e8ef0333814e962f/original/472527107-18480287959042993-8732639309822053666-n.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==" class="size_m justify_right border_" height="954" /><p data-start="2223" data-end="2585">But what makes Jordan Hawkins so compelling isn’t just his voice or his guitar chops—it’s his ability to <em data-start="2328" data-end="2334"><i>feel</i></em>. Every song on the EP pulses with life, with heartbreak, with joy, with the kind of introspection that only comes from really living. He isn’t afraid to show you the process, the flaws, the beauty in becoming. His music isn’t just polished—it’s real.</p><p data-start="2587" data-end="2625">And still, this is just the beginning.</p><p data-start="2627" data-end="2974">Jordan Hawkins has managed to create a sonic world where the old and new collide in the best way. A place where guitars wail, hearts break, and R&amp;B gets a rockstar edge. With <em data-start="2802" data-end="2820"><i>Heart Won’t Stop</i></em>, he’s crafted a debut that doesn’t just demand attention—it earns it. And if this is what the first chapter sounds like, we can only imagine what’s next.</p><p data-start="2976" data-end="3046">Welcome to the Jordan Hawkins experience. You’ll want to stay a while.</p><h3><a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/70XiOMiwBAHHspwHrkxlJY?si=ZA89mJzqStWUHK6lBG4Uzw&amp;utm_source=hoobe&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;nd=1" target="_blank" data-link-type="url">SPOTIFY</a></h3><h3><a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.instagram.com/imjordanhawkins" target="_blank" data-link-type="url">INSTAGRAM</a></h3><div class="video-container size_xl justify_center" style=""><iframe data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="rskJhxwyeBQ" data-video-thumb-url="" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/rskJhxwyeBQ?rel=0&amp;wmode=transparent&amp;enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div></div>

More than just a song, the new single forms a poignant narrative about the trials of being deeply in love, the pain of jealousy, and the toxic effects of insecurity from relationships.</p><p>SANAVI’s heartfelt lyrics take listeners on a journey through the highs and lows of love, ultimately reminding them of the importance of self-discovery and growth. The song’s emotional depth is further heightened by SANAVI’s incredible vocal range and talent.</p><p>As a seasoned indie artist, she brings authenticity and raw emotion to her music, creating a profound connection with her audience. With “WAY BACK,” SANAVI displays her inimitable ability to convey complex emotions through her music, leaving listeners captivated and moved.</p><p> </p><p><span class="text-big"><strong>WHO IS SANAVI?</strong></span></p><p>Ladies and gentlemen, gather 'round as we dive into the captivating story of the one and only Sanavi, a true summer-bred Haitian descendant, hailing from the vibrant city of Miami. But Sanavi is no ordinary artist; she's a force of nature, a singer-songwriter, dancer, choreographer, and community activist whose charisma knows no bounds.</p><p>Picture this: Sanavi, with her undeniable talent and infectious energy, gracing the stage of the American Airlines Arena, singing the National Anthem at the Miami Heat vs NY Knicks game. And that's just the beginning! She lent her voice to the Miami Dolphins Cancer Challenge, pedaling through a 25-mile bike ride for a noble cause. Talk about using her artistry to make a difference!</p><img src="//images.zoogletools.com/s:bzglfiles/u/149585/9ce8d0e3b9d6e17c95f76b5a2795776217073b10/original/292697-artist-pic-1.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==" class="size_m justify_right border_" height="640" /><p>But where did this powerhouse of talent emerge from? Well, it all began in her childhood home and church, where the foundation of the arts was laid, shaping Sanavi's journey from the get-go. Enriched with her West Indies roots, she learned to play drums, becoming a student to the true definition of rhythm.</p><p>Fast forward to her teenage years, and Sanavi's talent led her to the prestigious New World School of the Arts, where she honed her skills and embraced her passion for music. Soon, she found herself sharing stages with industry giants like Lloyd and lending her vocals to the likes of Betty Wright, Mystikal, and Kenny Lattimore, among others. Oh, and let's not forget her well-deserved victory at the 2020 Las Vegas Music Awards!</p><p>Now, Sanavi has set her sights on the City of Angels, Los Angeles, where she's ready to expand her horizons in the world of fine arts. But fear not, music lovers, for Sanavi has an array of thrilling singles on the horizon, including the electrifying "Elevating," set to drop in early 2024, followed by the summer anthems "Throw up" and "My Body."</p><p>So, keep your ears perked and your hearts open, because Sanavi is here to elevate your spirits and ignite your passion for music like never before. Get ready to groove to the rhythm of Sanavi's beats, because the journey has only just begun!</p><h3 style="text-align:center;">

The band is composed of talented young women, ranging from 18-22, whose accomplishments and talent eclipse their age. Plush is fronted by singer, songwriter and guitarist Moriah Formica. Guitarist Bella Perron, bassist Ashley Suppa and drummer Faith Powell. Plush’s self titled first album which was released in 2021and features the Billboard Top</span></p><img src="//images.zoogletools.com/s:bzglfiles/u/149585/6cb436071f6f3754d55a7fa11b4c635eace140b1/original/341281900-234003685843375-6392243539427854838-n.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==" class="size_m justify_left border_" /><p><span style="color:#ffffff;">40 charting singles "Hate" and "Better Off Alone." "Will Not Win" is a high-octane rock anthem that fires up listeners. </span></p><p> </p><p><span style="color:#ffffff;">Plush has been electrifying audiences during recent live performances across the United States supporting Kiss, Alice in Chains, Evanescence, Slash, Halestorm among others as well as on the big festival stages of Rocklahoma, Louder Than Life and Welcome to Rockville and more.</span></p><p><span style="color:#ffffff;">Plush is back with a new single “Left Behind” which showcases the band’s heavier side. <strong>“Left Behind”</strong> was recorded in Nashville with producers Zac Maloy, Blair Daly and Kile Odell, and is out now via Pavement Entertainment.</span></p><p><span style="color:#ffffff;">Lead vocalist Moriah Formica belts outs a fierce and aggressive range with vocal lines such as “We’re the cast-outs of society, one big, twisted family.” The ferocious riffs, down tuned guitars, and over the top vocals make this a rock anthem to be reckoned with. Check it out and let us know what you think. We think this is the next generation of rock and will bring it back in a strong way.</span></p><h4>

  <div class="message"><h2><span style="color:#ffffff;">ALEXANDER MACK</span></h2><p><span style="color:#ffffff;"><strong>Alexander Mack </strong>is a Virginia based singer, songwriter, rapper and producer who combines old-school forms of music like Jazz with modern Hip Hop. This unique blend of sounds along with <strong>Alexander’s</strong> catchy lyrics has</span></p><img src="//images.zoogletools.com/s:bzglfiles/u/149585/aa12e028b3431ffb106967f39bafa88522e4e413/original/screenshot-20230223-153508-instagram.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==" class="size_m justify_left border_" /><p><span style="color:#ffffff;">created a whole catalog of tracks with confidence and swagger that have positioned him to explode into the emerging rap game. Although his father was a successful musician, <strong>Alexander </strong>still faced pressure to switch lanes into a more “normal” career from peers and professors who didn’t believe a career in music was possible. The negative people never phased him though, because the true supporters he found in his close friends and his Dad built up the unshakable confidence <strong>Alexander Mack</strong> is known for. </span></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p><span style="color:#ffffff;">One of my favorite songs of Alexander Mack is <strong>“Young Man”. </strong>It<strong> </strong>translates even more of <strong>Alexander’s</strong> positivity and focus into song, letting people know that even though he is young he isn’t naive. He considers himself a new face with the mind of a veteran, working harder and moving faster than any of his peers to catch up to his idols as quickly as he can. The light piano samples contrast perfectly with a killer saxophone breakdown that hits harder with every listen.</span></p><p><span style="color:#ffffff;"> </span><a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/track/1U3HqSx1idtOZfcHuRgn3J?si=dc55f8198f5a475e" target="_blank"><span style="color:#ffffff;">https://open.spotify.com/track/1U3HqSx1idtOZfcHuRgn3J?si=dc55f8198f5a475e</span></a></p><p><span style="color:#ffffff;">Alexander's latest release is “Materpeace”.

  <div class="message"><h2>MICHELLE ROSE</h2>
<p>Michelle Rose has been obsessed with singing and performing her whole life!  She's been classically training vocally since age six.  In her late teens, she began training in Pop/R&amp;B and opera. </p>
<p>Michelle Rose began recording original songs at age 11 and has recorded over 30 songs. </p>
<p>Michelle Rose is currently working on a full, soon-to-be released album with her producer, Dr. Matt Fink, from Prince's band, The Revolution.  She is truly so honored to work with him, especially since The Revolution has long been one of her favorite bands.  Though most of the songs they've created together are not yet available for <img src="//images.zoogletools.com/u/149585/37e61d04ed6f3f14292fbaefc5202293189033e2/original/291312-angel-eyes-cover.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==/b:W1sic2l6ZSIsIm1lZGl1bSJdXQ==.jpg" class="size_m justify_left border_none" alt="" />streaming or purchase, you can hear them on this website, so please take a listen! </p>
<p>Michelle Rose planned, co-directed and starred in several award-winning music videos for her original songs.    Please check them out on her music videos link! </p>
<p>Michelle Rose was born in Minneapolis, just a mile from where Prince was born.  She is 2021 graduate of Berklee College of Music in Boston, the top-rated contemporary music school in the world, where she studied Vocal Performance, Songwriting and Music Production. </p>
<p>Michelle Rose is honored to have won awards in state, national and international talent competitions.  For the past several years, she's been truly grateful to have been selected to sing the National Anthem at the Susan G. Komen Twin Cities Race for the Cure Walk, in front of 40,000 people. </p>
<p>Aside from singing, she's been involved in film acting, modeling, pageants, volunteer work and public speaking.   One of  her greatest honors was giving a keynote speech on volunteerism, at age 14, to an audience of 19,000 teens. </p>
<p>A life-long volunteer, Michelle Rose is proud to have volunteered over 2,500 hours.  She's incorporated messages that are important to her in some of her songs, and she's also used her love for singing, acting, performing and speaking to benefit various charities. <img src="//images.zoogletools.com/u/149585/c76f6d7d374c61fad463900c329b197496f1511e/original/screenshot-2023-02-07-134850.png/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==/b:W1sic2l6ZSIsIm1lZGl1bSJdXQ==.png" class="size_m justify_right border_none" alt="" /></p>

<p>The singles were produced, recorded, mixed and mastered by Jacob Light at Modern Tone Studios in Lafayette, CA.  Jacob Light plays bass guitar and Gideon Berger (Useless ID, War Bison, Kill The Drive) is on drums. </p>
<p>‘Embers’ is a driving, melancholic song about feeling down but not out, while ‘Like a Girl’ celebrates female empowerment.  Ava spent a lot of time working on the guitar solos for these songs, and they are worthy of repeat listening.  Ava is releasing these songs together because they represent the sometime wild swings of emotion many people experience on any given day.  Sort of the yin-yang of the average human navigating through daily life. </p>
<p>When critiquing ‘Like A Girl’, master songsmith (and Ava’s songwriting idol) Desmond Child likened the song to the anthemic ‘Love is A Battlefield’ by Pat Benatar, with the underlying message of female empowerment. </p>
<p>From a recent review from FuzzyHound of Ava’s Charm School Dropout EP: </p>
<p>“Ava Toton has already become a huge inspiration to rockers everywhere, young and old. She wants to show the world that rock and roll is not dead and introduce this music to her generation.” </p>

<h3> ABOUT </h3>
<p>Ava received her first guitar for her 5th birthday and started taking lessons at 6.  The rest is history.  Ava’s songwriting blossomed during the early lockdown days of COVID in 2020, and she continues to hone her<img src="//images.zoogletools.com/u/149585/33138cbe04c46d26c860f257cee31cdbe4a09162/original/82fcf2a1572747e4918576b892bad3c9.jfif/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==/b:W1sic2l6ZSIsIm1lZGl1bSJdXQ==.jfif" class="size_m justify_right border_none" alt="" /> writing. </p>
<p>When she’s not shredding her guitar and composing rock songs, Ava Toton is your average 8th grader and loves playing video games and hanging out with her friends and family.  You can catch her live when she plays her original music as part of the teen band, Alpha Z. </p>

<p>Ashley Suppa is an 18-year-old singer/songwriter from the suburban New York City area.  From an early age, Ashley was exposed to music by her father, an accomplished guitarist who played nationally with a variety of notable musicians. Ashley's first musical experience was at the age of 6, when she was asked to sing background vocals on renowned guitarist Ace Frehley's (KISS) album “Anomaly”. At age 12, Ashley started studying guitar as her main instrument after enrolling in a local School of Rock program. She studied bass and vocal technique, gaining essential experience adapting to the nature of live performance. She consequently joined a local youth theater group, refining her performance skills in a multitude of stage productions.   When Ashley was 15, she started writing and recording her own songs on her first laptop. One demo eventually made its way to a Grammy®-Nominated Producer Alex Salzman, who immediately recognized Ashley's talents for singing, songwriting and production, consequently agreeing to collaborate with her on her debut release.   Ashley credits artists like David Bowie, Lady Gaga, The 1975, Tyler the Creator, Dua Lipa, and Bruno Mars as major influences in her songwriting. She aspires to write songs that reflect the complexity of personal experiences, feelings and perspectives, and hopes that her songs empower people of all ages to think deeper about their relationships and interactions with the world around us.</p>
