Miu Haiti unleashes a new single, “Is This Love,” accompanied by a music video. “Is This Love” is a change of pace from her previous hard-hitting records, “Real Ones” and “In ‘Em Face,” which collectively amassed about 200,000 streams and views. “Is This Love” demonstrates her versatility and puts her vocal range to the forefront.

“Is This Love” is fairly self-explanatory through its title; however, matters of the heart are rarely that simple. Miu Haiti dives deep into the raw emotion of love and pragmatic idea of love. She perfectly depicts the complex feelings and thoughts that come after the honeymoon phase of a relationship. “When you’re dating someone that you really like who is playing all the right cards, you are subjected to many feelings.” Miu Haiti continues, “The initial curiosity, lust, and infatuation soon give way to admiration, and one seeks to break away from this bewitchment to ponder, in a state of confusion: ‘Is this love?'”

Her booming, sultry voice compliments the eclectic Pop and R&B/Soul ballad well. Not only does she wow listeners from a vocal performance perspective, she also must be given her flowers for her penmanship in “Is This Love.” From the catchy chorus to the melodious harmonies, Miu Haiti showcases her songwriting prowess.

Her previous single, “Real Ones,” was self-produced, but for “Is This Love,” she reunited with Haitian producer Nice Beat (Andy Irwin Charles). She enlisted her former tourmate, Zach Hughes, to mix the masterpiece. The simple yet captivating music video was the artistic vision of Canadian artistic director Ralph Leroy. His vision was carried out by videographer Ryan J. Ardito. The music video was filmed in Purfek TV’s studio, and video director Storm provided additional directorial guidance and was the final piece of the international dream team that Miu Haiti assembled. The sensual, serene visual encapsulates the fluttering feelings expressed within the track and fits the overarching theme of the record.

“Is This Love” is set to open the floodgates for more music from the songstress. Miu Haiti has a lot more in store for the rest of the year. “Is This Love” is a prelude of what’s to come as she plans to release an EP later this year. For the time being, fall head over heels in love with “Is This Love.”

Miu Haiti’s biography

Genre-bending singer-songwriter Miu Haiti draws her eclectic musical influences from Pop and R&B with a Hip-Hop edge. She was born and raised in Haiti, but is now based in the United States. Music has always been in her blood, being the daughter of a saxophonist. Miu Haiti is a renaissance woman – her versatile artistic expression is influenced by her love of fashion, makeup artistry, performing arts, and interior design. Her ability to compose music and sing in various languages (English, Creole, French, and Spanish) allows her to connect with a global audience, and has driven collaborations with arrangers, talents, and artists from Saint Lucia, Puerto Rico, Tanzania, United States, Canada, France, and Haiti. Miu Haiti has remained very prolific since the release of her debut album, “Unexpected,” in 2014. She has been featured in various media outlets. She has garnered a sizable fanbase with nearly 500,000 followers across social media platforms, and she has accumulated well over one million streams and views. Continuously evolving, 2022 saw the releases of her highly replayed song and music video, “In ‘Em Face,” and first-ever self-produced single, “Real Ones.” Her 2022 catalog was just a glimpse of what is on the horizon for 2023. Her latest single, “Is This Love,” shows yet a different side of the multifaceted talent and gives fans a taste of the quality and masterfulness that can be expected from her upcoming EP slated to drop later this year.

Published

on

If you’ve yet to experience the electrifying rush that is Those Without, let me paint you a picture: imagine fast-paced rhythms colliding with heartwarming melodies, all tied together with lyrics that hit you right in the feels. Sounds like a recipe for musical bliss, doesn’t it? Well, that’s exactly what you can expect from this talented group of musicians.

Comprised of Oskar Westlin on vocals, Martin Spåman and Felix Lindquist on guitars, Filip Burman on bass, and Niki Hursti on drums, Those Without are no strangers to delivering killer performances that leave audiences begging for more. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Neck Deep, Hot Mulligan, and Loveless, they’ve managed to carve out a sound that is uniquely their own.

But what exactly is their new track “Serenity” all about? According to band members Filip and Martin, it’s about exploring a new direction while still staying true to their roots. Picture mellow verses building up to a massive chorus, all tied together with an anthemic bridge that will have you reaching for the nearest air guitar.

When asked about what it means to have this new track out to the world, the band has the following to share.

“Finally having Serenity out for the world to listen to is a blessing. I’ve (Oskar) been dealing with a lot of issues regarding my mental stability as of lately and Serenity is an extremely heartfelt song written about how one’s mental state affects a relationship and how a concept like reassurance can make every issue in the world go away, if only for a minute or two. But that minute is filled with bliss and is a state of pure serenity. We’re so thrilled that the song is finally out and we can’t wait to see what people think about it, seeing as the response in this short amount of time since its release has already been amazing.”

So go ahead, crank up the volume and let Those Without guide you on a journey to find peace amidst the chaos. After all, in a world as crazy as ours, we could all use a little more “Serenity” in our lives.
