This song is absolutely amazing. You can just feel the emotion of the song. Not sure there could have been a better debut. But, don't take my word for it. Go listen to it yourself!

Delilah Brao Visits Section 36 Music!

Section 36 Music has another visitor! Delilah Brao is a incredibly wonderful singer, and I was glad she was willing to visit with us and discuss her recent music, her future, and more. I’m sure you’ll love everything she has to say.

So, let's see what happens when Delilah Brao visits Section 36 Music!


Your recent single “Bad Taste” is just wonderful. What can you tell me about it?

“Bad Taste” is a tongue-in-cheek lament about the universal problem of constantly dating the wrong person. You know - someone super emotionally unavailable. Stylistically, it really leans on my Berklee roots. It fuses pop, jazz, and 80’s synth pop into a brooding, self-aware, hooky beat. I wrote and produced the song with Matthew James Hemmer, who has become my main collaborator throughout quarantine. “Bad Taste” was the first song we wrote in quarantine, but there are many more on the way.  


Who/what would you consider to be your biggest musical influences?

Lately, I’ve been so inspired by Taylor Swift. In my opinion, she musically “won” the pandemic. I listened to “folklore” and “evermore” constantly. Not many artists have shown the versatility in songwriting, performance, and genres that she has. Listening to a Swift album is like a masterclass in songwriting. I’ve also been enjoying Charli XCX recently. I got really sucked in with her “Pop 2” album back in 2017 and have been a big fan ever since. She’s another artist that is constantly evolving. 

 

What do you enjoy most about performing in front of an audience?

It’s hard to remember what live performance is even like at this

point! I can’t wait to perform in front of an audience again. I feel like I’m a whole new artist now and want to share everything I’ve been working on during quarantine. 

 

One of the most memorable shows I've played was my last show before COVID quarantine began. It was at a venue in Boston the weekend before we found out classes would continue remotely. Obviously, back then we didn't know much about COVID yet, but there was this underlying sense that things were about to change. It felt like everyone was there to relax about everything and unwind at a live show, while simultaneously being kind of on-edge about everything. The nervous energy made everyone so engaged. I felt like I had such a real spark and connection with the audience during that show. It was like everyone wanted comfort about what was going to happen in the future and was looking to me as the performer to give them some sort of relaxation about everything going on. For those few hours everyone was able to just have fun, dance, interact, and laugh. We didn't know it would be our last show of the year. I can't even imagine how electric it will feel when live performances resume. I had gigs at Rockwood Music Hall and Bowery Electric, among others, cancelled due to COVID. I can't wait to go back to performing with a live audience when this is all over. 

 

You are currently a student at Berklee College of Music. What is the biggest thing that is doing for your career?

The greatest thing about Berklee for me has been the friendships and connections I’ve made there. I constantly feel challenged by my peers. Everyone has something to add to the musical conversation. Being surrounded by greatness makes you want to be great as well!  It really lights a fire under you. 

 

Other than COVID, what would you say is your biggest career challenge?

I think one of the greatest challenges for any artist is finding collaborators who fit your artistic vision. It’s like dating! You have to kind of “date around” with producers, songwriters, managers, designers, engineers, etc, in order to find your team. It can get a little overwhelming and stressful - you think you’ll never find your “soulmate,” but when you find “the one,” it’s all worth it!

 

What are your immediate career goals?

I officially moved to LA and started working on some new

singles out here! Moving to LA was definitely a game-changer for me. I try to do as many co-writes and sessions as possible and just get to know everyone. It’s been a really good experience for me and I’m really looking forward to sharing all the music I’ve been making here!


---

I definitely want to hear that new music!

As always, I want to thank Delilah for visiting, and for sending along the pictures to accompany the interview.

I know you’ll all want to follow along with Delilah to see what she's up to. The best way is to follow her online on Instagram, and definitely stream her Spotifty music. They’re great ways to make sure you don't miss a thing! 

You can also visit her Section 36 Music page. There you'll find more links, music samples, and pictures. It's a perfect way to enjoy everything Delilah has to offer all in one place.

Thanks again Delilah, and good luck reaching your goals!

"Make Sense" by Melissa Mills (Feb 15, 2021 Release)

The latest single, "Make Sense", from singing sensation Melissa Mills is now available! 




And I know you want to listen to it now!

What can you expect from it? Well, here's how Melissa described it to us: 

"Make Sense originally was written during a jam in her living room with her producer Scott Bowers and friends Joe Eldracher and Stephen Griffin. The song has since been fine tuned and tweaked into her release today. Melissa has said it’s just the beginning for her new sound."

Melissa has also said that this song, and the others she will be releasing soon, are the most "her" music that she's released. Which sounds simply amazing to me. You won't want to miss this, so be sure to check it out any way you can!

You can find “Make Sense" just about everywhere you usually find your music, like Apple and Spotify.  So, there's no reason why you won't be able track it down…which I highly suggest you do.

You can also see Melissa's just released video for the song HERE! You should absolutely watch it over and over again!

"Ethereal" by Lina Cooper (Feb 14, 2021 Release)

“Ethereal" is the new single from the amazing singer Lina Cooper!



Go listen to it right now!


Lina was nice enough to tell us about the single during her recent interview with Section 36 Music. Here's what she had to say...


"So first of all, Valentine's Day is my Birthday, which probably explains why I am such a hopeless romantic constantly falling in love and getting heartbroken and then writing songs about it. And this song, that's called "Ethereal", is one of a few happy songs I've ever written.

Firstly, I wrote a song after literally watching videos on how to write a smash pop song, and then googling "the most beautiful words in English". And the word "ethereal" was one of them. The moment I read it, I knew this was my title. I wrote the song in 30 minutes, when I snuck out of the office where I worked at the time and then produced the demo in literally one evening. My goal with writing it was to capture this fragile, addictive, incredible feeling of affection, of falling in love and living in the moment. I am describing the guy the song is about (and whose voice memo I used as well...), almost worshiping every single little detail I could think of. From his brown curls enswathing his shoulders to his arms being covered in tattoos that looked like a piece of art from the Louvre itself. And at the same time, while I was feeling so high on love, I wanted to include this uncertainty, this fear of losing the person you're clinging so much to, this tender and shy anxiety about feeling like this will not last forever. With that said, this song was meant for all the lovers, all the romantics, the dreamers or just fans of pop music. I hope you enjoy it :)"


Now, that sounds like the makings of a great song! Be sure to listed to what she came up with.


You can find “Ethereal" just about everywhere you usually get your music like Apple and Spotify. So, there's no reason you won't be able to find it.…which I highly suggest you do.

Shantel C. Visits Section 36 Music!

Section 36 Music has another visitor! Shantel C is an incredibly talented singer, and I was so excited she was willing to visit with us and discuss her recent music, her future, and more. I’m sure you’ll love everything she has to say.

So, let's see what happens when Shantel C visits Section 36 Music!

I really enjoyed your latest single, “Mostram”. What can you tell me about it?

Firstly, thank you so much for connecting with my music! I’m so glad you enjoyed this most recent project, which was a very unexpected and different experience for me! I say unexpected because the song started as only a small collaboration piece between me and my good artist friend Santos Silva. We initially planned to put together just a quick clip for Instagram after having virtually met during a live-streamed event in which we were both guest artists. Little did either of us know that this tiny collab would turn into something more professional! Him being based all the way in L.A., I was so surprised to hear that he was planning on flying over to Boston, and it was then that I got the idea to get us in a studio and started to get all the logistics situated. In the span of a week, we had a fully fleshed out song and production that completely exceeded our expectations! In terms of the experience being different, the genre itself was completely brand new for us both. As a Cape Verdean-American artist myself, I had been sticking to the more traditional sound of the culture while Santos, who’s also Cape Verdean-American, has never had the chance to explore his Cape Verdean identity through music until we embarked on this project. We really wanted to use this opportunity to blend our cultures using bilingual lyrics on top of a Kizomba/Afropop production to represent our identities.


“Mostram” is actually the first song I’ve ever written completely on my own in terms of lyrics along with the support of Santos’ beautiful melody. Not having much prior songwriting experience, I was nervous and yet so excited to finally fulfill that role! While I promised myself I’d never write a love song in my career as an artist, Santos and I both agreed that we could find a way to write something romantic that still strayed away from “the cliché”. We drew from our thoughts on the modern dynamic between people romantically interested in one another. Society often places pressure on the more masculine figure to make the first move and mask emotion while creating an expectation for the feminine counterpart to need to wait in order to be pursued. We wanted to make a song that would influence people to chase after love without fear or hesitance. After all, the nature of something as powerful and brilliant as love should never be limited or controlled by outer forces; all that matters is that pure and authentic connection and feeling–one of the most beautiful forces to exist between us as humans. 


You’re currently attending Berklee College of Music. What’s the most important thing you see that doing for your career?

Apart from equipping me with the tools I’ll need in order to navigate the music industry successfully, I think the most important thing attending Berklee will provide is exposure to the vastness of possibility. Though I’m currently only a second semester student at the college, I already feel like I’ve been introduced to so many different types of music, ideas, and people within such a short period of time. Having that exposure has definitely opened my mind even further and will provide me with such a unique perspective as an aspiring figure in the music business, allowing me to be able to open new doors and really make the most of future collaborations. One of the best parts about Berklee’s student body for me is the fact that so many people come from all over the world, bringing all these different experiences and backgrounds with them. Having the opportunity to learn just as much from your peers as you would from a professor is truly rewarding and will bring my own creative aspirations to new heights for sure. In the same light, the faculty are all incredibly skilled in their areas and not only have so much wisdom to offer but also prioritize students being able to explore themselves and delve into those possibilities.


At Berklee, you’re a member of the phenomenal a cappella group “Treble Threat”. What is that experience like?

Yes! I am so humbled and honored to be part of Berklee’s only all-women a cappella group, and the experience has been so incredibly rewarding. I didn’t think we’d be able to accomplish nearly as much as we have due to the barriers of the pandemic, but the whole team has just been so dedicated, driven, and supportive throughout. The amount of work that our board members put into the group and the projects we release is so motivating and impressive–from the outstanding arrangements to the insanely creative video editing and vision boards, they really make sure Treble Threat is constantly putting our best foot forward and always improving from the last. I’ve also thoroughly enjoyed getting to know all the members and creating such a special bond with so many talented and passionate musicians! Despite the fact that our rehearsals have been conducted virtually since the start of the semester, we’ve been able to remain productive while also making time to check-in with each other and connect on a more personal level. Though being completely remote certainly has its challenges when singing in a group, working with Treble Threat this semester has taught me so much about recording vocals and using music production software more comfortably and efficiently. We’re currently working on our submission for the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella and have some more exciting projects lined up later this year! I’m looking forward to continuing to grow with the group and, hopefully, meeting my family on campus once we’re able to gather in-person!


You’re one of the soloists on Treble Threat’s recent single, “Nice to Meet ya”. What was that like to put together?

The fact that we were able to release a whole single whilebeing miles apart from each other still shocks me. “Nice To Meet Ya” was the very first arrangement I worked on with the group, and it definitely came a long way since our first early takes of the song in the beginning of the semester. One thing that I’ve loved about Treble Threat’s arrangements is how diverse they all are in terms of genre and feel–our amazing arranger Snehal Pandey took a heavy pop song and kept a lot of those pop influences while also fusing them with a jazz flavor. In addition to being the group’s first arrangement, the song was also my first solo with Treble Threat! I was hesitant to take up Nicki Minaj’s rap solo because I wouldn’t call myself a seasoned rapper at all but I’m glad I took the risk! I’ve always respected Nicki for the way she’s contributed to black music as one of the top black female artists of her era. Taking on an alter ego and channeling my inner Nicki energy during the recording process was too much fun, and I absolutely lived for the sass, flair, and attitude that the song brought out in all of us! “Nice To Meet Ya” is available now on all platforms, and we can’t wait to release more music soon!


Who/what would you consider your biggest musical influences?

Photo by
Khai Boa
This question is always a bit of a handful because I pull inspiration from two different markets. Given my dual identity as a Cape Verdean-American, I listen to music from both cultures and am constantly inspired by artists from both music industries. In terms of American artists, my top influences are Lauryn Hill, H.E.R., and Alicia Keys. I greatly admire the authenticity with which they all bring to their artistry and craft and hope to model that same example. I believe the strongest work comes from channeling the truth and bringing your whole self to the table. In Cape Verdean music, I look up to Gil Semedo, Elida Almeida, and Mayra Andrade most for musical inspiration. I absolutely love how these artists have explored within the boundaries of Cape Verdean music and experimented with fresh sounds while maintaining the cultural roots. In the same way, I want my music to represent the bridge between my American and Cape Verdean identity, fusing genres from both cultures into one sound. 


What are your immediate career goals?

As of right now, I am focused on gaining as much as I can out

Paulo Monteiro
of studying at Berklee while both finding time to explore myself as a young artist and continuing to discover the stories I want to tell through music. Looking toward my most immediate career goals after college, I hope to get affiliated with the music business and use my internship opportunities at Berklee to propel me into those environments and relationships. While I don’t foresee making music and performing being my main goal in the future, I do wish to keep my career as an artist on the side and continue to work on original music and perform once the live industry returns. Most important, I plan to keep learning and stepping outside of my familiarities while prioritizing my wellbeing and appreciating the present moment to the fullest extent–something I’m always reminding myself of when looking toward my next steps!

That sounds like a well thought out plan!

Lina Cooper Visits Section 36 Music!

Holy Smoke Photography
Section 36 Music has another visitor! Lina Cooper is an incredible singer, and I was so glad she wanted to visit with us and discuss her recent music, her future, and more. I’m sure you’ll love everything she has to say...even if she's wearing a Lakers jersey.


So, let's see what happens when Lina Cooper visits Section 36 Music!


I really enjoyed your latest single, “If You Ever Leave Me”. What can you tell me about it?
Thank you so much! "If You Ever Leave Me" was a song I wrote driving in the car next to a guy I was seeing at the time. We were having a great day, we were on our way to brunch with his lovely young niece. Keep in mind, that very week I rewatched the whole Kill Bill saga twice and was extremely inspired by it and Tarantino in general. As we were driving, I had a very quick thought - what if I was Uma Thurman and my boyfriend cheated on me? What would I do? The same second I took out my phone and started typing. I could see the exact scenario of this situation. I played out a whole movie in my notes. I saw blood, heard revengeful laughs, I smelled passion and pain. I saw me breaking into this guy's house, yelling and crying, asking him why he did what he did, then murdering him and getting away with it, because heartbreak is just as much of crime as a murder (obviously, not, but the character would think that it is). The next day after I wrote these lyrics, I knew what energy the song needed to have and I just started randomly going through Logic Loops and found that guitar hook. The melody came to be minutes after the I made the beat. And that was it!

The video for “If You Ever Leave Me” is outstanding. What was it like to put that together?
Oh, it was so much fun! The director and the actors are all my

very close friends and it was pure pleasure working with them. Misha Bogomolov (the director) is my roommate, I just brought him the idea about the video, where I get cheated on and then murder the guy and he had a vision right away. We filmed it in 2 days in Boston. As we were putting together the plot, we started pulling references from "The Shining" (where I axe the door and then say "Here's Lina"), "Carrie" (where I am all covered in blood in a little silk dress), "Mr & Mrs Smith" (the fighting scenes with the knives) and of course, "Kill Bill" (the whole image and aesthetic of this song). I gotta say, acting was so much fun. I haven't filmed a music video where I get to be sexy and CRAZY at the same time! I have to admit, it was definitely difficult to let go of the "real me" from time to time, but I enjoyed challenging myself. I am very happy with our result. 

What about your upcoming projects? I saw that you are dropping a song on Valentine's Day. Could you tell us a bit more about that?
So first of all, Valentine's Day is my Birthday, which probably explains why I am such a hopeless romantic constantly falling in love and getting heartbroken and then writing songs about it. And this song, that's called "Ethereal", is one of a few happy songs I've ever written.

Firstly, I wrote a song after literally watching videos on how to write a smash pop song, and then googling "the most beautiful words in English". And the word "ethereal" was one of them. The moment I read it, I knew this was my title. I wrote the song in 30 minutes, when I snuck out of the office where I worked at the time and then produced the demo in literally one evening. My goal with writing it was to capture this fragile, addictive, incredible feeling of affection, of falling in love and living in the moment. I am describing the guy the song is about (and whose voice memo I used as well...), almost worshiping every single little detail I could think of. From his brown curls enswathing his shoulders to his arms being covered in tattoos that looked like a piece of art from the Louvre itself. And at the same time, while I was feeling so high on love, I wanted to include this uncertainty, this fear of losing the person you're clinging so much to, this tender and shy anxiety about feeling like this will not last forever. With that said, this song was meant for all the lovers, all the romantics, the dreamers or just fans of pop music. I hope you enjoy it :)

You are a recent graduate of  Berklee College of Music. What’s the biggest thing you feel that did for your career?
Photo by
Holy Smoke Photography
Definitely, unarguably the friends that I made. Friends from the music industry. Berklee is an incredible network that has spread all around the world. At Berklee you are surrounded with an insane amount of incredible, amazingly talented, hardworking musicians that are very different from one another. I have made so many friends I am still in touch with and who are the people I go to for any kind of music service. I am definitely thankful for all the things I have learned and all the experiences. But my friends were the best thing about Berklee. Hands down. 

Who/what would you consider your biggest musical influences?
A lot of people judge me for my answer, but I finally stopped being ashamed of saying it. My biggest influence is Taylor Swift. I consider her an unbelievable and truly magically talented songwriter. She writes or co-writes every single song of hers and that is my goal. Tell my own self-written stories through music and inspire people the way she inspires me. She is such a prolific storyteller and a magnificent melody composer. She has a feel for hooks and you can't deny that at least at some point in your life you couldn't get one of her songs out of your head. My dream is to get in the room with her.

Other than COVID, what would you say is your biggest career challenge?
At this very moment, as sad as it sounds, it is money. I work a regular music job while I am trying to make my artist thing happen. But unfortunately, a lot of music services cost a lot of money. Production, mixing, mastering, photoshoots, music videos, social media promotion, management, etc. You either have to have a label or invest into your music yourself. And I am definitely working very hard towards my goal, I am trying to do everything that I can. And I truly believe that hard work pays off. So even though it's a big challenge, it won't stop me. 

What are your immediate career goals?
My immediate and final goal, to be quite honest, is very simple.
Photo by
Holy Smoke Photography

I want to make a living by doing what I truly love. And I love making music, I love writing, I love telling stories, I love seeing people smile, sing along and dance, I love spreading love, making people feel like they are not alone in this world. It is the highest of the highs when you see someone enjoying your music and my goal is to put my music in front of as many people as I can. And of course, just be happy.

Those sound like a solid goal. I'm sure she'll get there!

As always, I want to thank Lina for visiting, and for sending along the pictures to accompany the interview.

“Brain on Fire” by J0VANNA (Feb 7, 2021 release)

“Brain on Fire" is the debit single from the amazing singer J0VANNA!



You need to listen to it, right away!


What can you expect from this song? Here's what the release had to say...


"This single is about the struggles of mental illness, an important issue that is prevalent in this day and age and affects all people in varying degrees. The song takes you through the artist’s journey of numbness and pain while dealing with OCD and anxiety disorder. The song has a melancholic introduction with repetitive beats in the background and infectious chorus, all leading to a buildup that resembles a cry for help. At the end, this single will reassure listeners that seeking help is okay and that they are not alone.  According to J0VANNA, “music is a place for self-expression without feeling the fear of judgment.” She believes that truth through music heals the soul and stimulates the mind.


I could not get over how wonderful this song was. As a debut single, I can't wait to hear what she comes up with next. But, don't take my word for it. Be sure to listen to it for yourself.


You can find “Brain on Fire" just about everywhere you usually get your music like Apple and Spotify. So, there's no reason you won't be able to find it.…which I highly suggest you do.


Really. Right now.

“Can’t You Tell” by Kayla Silverman (Feb 5, 2021 release)

“Can't You Tell" is the latest single from the amazing singer Kayla Silverman!



Go listen to it now!


Kayla was nice enough to tell us about the single during her recent interview with Section 36 Music. Here's what she had to say...


"Can’t You Tell” also took me a very long time to write. I wrote the chorus and first verse two summers ago and forgot about it. I recently listened to what I had done and immediately knew I had to finish it. “Can’t You Tell” brings the listener into the mind of a lover who suddenly realizes that they are in love. The incorporation of lush harmonies, shiny synths, and playful wind instruments reflect the overwhelming feelings of infatuation, fear and joy when deciding whether or not to say “I love you."


If you're like me, you've been waiting for this song to be released ever since. Now's your chance. Be sure to listen to it for yourself.


You can find “Can't You Tell" just about everywhere you usually get your music like Apple and Spotify. So, there's no reason you won't be able to find it.…which I highly suggest you do.
