Tiffany Releases New Single "Someday Soon" In Support Of Cancer Charity

 

EQ Fave Tiffany has just recorded a beautiful ballad called "Someday Soon" which is a gorgeous tribute to anyone who has had their lives affected by cancer.  I highly urge everyone to purchase this single from the Hydra Productions website.  All proceeds of the single benefit The Caring Place in Nevada. 

You can listen to the song and an interview below that Tiffany did with The Caring Place which explains the birth of the single and why this is a worthwhile cause for her and her fans. 

Tiffany still remains to be my favourite female vocalist of all time and her vocals really shine through on this track - I think you'll like it too...

JLS - bringing back the boy band - one #1 hit at a time!

First Peak - RebekkaMaria debuts "Oh Solitude" and Drops the "As In"

 

One of EQs faves is back!

Long time readers of EQ know that I love love love the music of RebekkaMaria.  Except this time, she's dropped the "As In" and has been crafting a whole new sound for her sophomore album which follows up the ground-breaking electronic debut of "Queen Of France".

Click here to watch her first performance of new single "Oh Solitude" over at The Submarine Sessions.

RebekkaMaria had this to say about her upcoming,as-yet-untitled new album and why she dropped the "As In" from her name...

"The first album went of in just one tangent so to speak. It didn’t represent me as a complete artist, which is one of the reasons why I erased the prefix “As In”. That is also why the coming album is much more personal and containing a greater depth than “Queen of France". When I am writing music I need silence and solitude. While being alone and away from the city noise, I get in touch with sides of myself that I am not use to in my daily life. For me nature makes a whole other kind of noise."
