FODÉ Shares New Single ‘Dead Poets’

Published

on

The English-American trio FODÉ, which consists of James Clark on drums, Ollie Norris on bass, and Fodé Busia on vocals and guitar, first appeared in the thriving London music scene two years ago. The band used humorous parodies of popular artists’ styles on TikTok to reach viral success with their satirical songs. Taking advantage of this momentum, FODÉ exhibits a sound that defies genres as they skillfully combine their original songs with parodies.

A memorable musical synergy is created by the individual flairs of each member, including Ollie Norris’s rhythmic bass, James Clark’s powerful drumming, and Fodé Busia’s soulful vocals and guitar. As FODÉ keeps lighting up London’s stages, their shows showcase their mastery of music as well as their unmatched ability to engage the audience. As their journey continues, FODÉ will be a force to be reckoned with, redefining innovation in today’s music scene with a unique blend of sarcasm, inventiveness, and musical prowess.

They have just dropped their latest single ‘Dead Poets’, created from the concept of their viral TikTok which was ‘how Frank Ocean sounds to non-fans’ gaining over 4 million views. Due to an output of comments requesting a full version of the song, FODÉ decided to make it their own. The band added more depth flair and energy to the tune. Vocals, electric guitar, bass guitar, drums, piano, acoustic guitar, and Rhodes electric piano are all used to produce the energetic and dynamic rock track. They were able to add their touch to the music after a few hours, and they proceeded to reserve Premises Studios in Hackney for the proper recording. It is now prepared for distribution to the thousands of individuals who requested it.

On the song, FODÉ says, “This song started as a joke but we took it seriously and turned it into art.”

‘Dead Poets’ showcases FODÉ’s musical prowess while highlighting their intriguing songwriting and energetic production capabilities. Their artistry shines through their latest release complimenting their entire music discography to date.

FODÉ are paving their way into the music scene with their promising sound. For more updates on them, please visit their social media and streaming platforms.

LLOREN captures the raw, transformative energy of chasing dreams in the heart of LA with new single!

After years of making cinematic music for film & TV, British pop singer and former “The Voice” finalist LLOREN is limbering up to release her dream pop debut album “It’s Always Sunny in LA” very soon.

But first she is dropping a huge new single “Last Star In LA”. In a similar brand of dreampop as Sweden’s LÉON, “Last Star in LA” is a love letter to the city that has shaped Lloren’s music career, from writing her best songs, meeting her favourite collaborators, to landing syncs (30+) in trailers, TV shows and ads (latest for Kay Jewelers). “Last Star in LA” captures the raw, transformative energy of chasing dreams in the heart of LA.

“The song is just a love letter to the city! I wanted it to sound like a love song, but if you listen closely, you can hear it’s got a double meaning”, says LLOREN. Produced by Daniel Pashman (Little Monarch, Gold Brother, Ellee Duke), the track brings all the cinematic feels and tugs on the heartstrings from the outset with its instantly memorable hook and big nostalgic stadium pop atmospheres.

The track follows a string of recent singles which have seen LLOREN featured by prestigious music tastemakers The Line Of Best Fit, gain airplay from BBC Radio 2’s Angela Griffin and Radio X’s John Kennedy, interviewed by Diva Magazine and Celebmix and the video for her track “Like This” won a Telly Award in the US, as well as also being nominated for a prestigious Leo Award in Canada.

Grey’s Anatomy, The L Word, 1923, Wish, The Company You Keep, Made In Chelsea, Love Island UK and Love Island USA are just some of the many sync credits LLOREN has amassed to date, which have steadily proved her rich, versatile vocal and powerful contemporary inspired compositions to be a cut above the rest. And in “Last Star In LA” we see this combination in its full glory, as LLOREN weaves her magical honey-like vocals around an 80’s style production backdrop, that feels spacious and contemplative yet kicks the listener heavily in the heart with a big dose of yearning emotions.

LLOREN was recently invited to join American artist Fleurie on her first European tour. During the tour, she also caught the eyes of promoters who invited her back to open for household names Johannes Oerding and Michael Patrick Kelly and an audience of 10000 people. In the UK, LLOREN is no stranger to the annual PRIDE celebrations having played both Manchester and London where she headlined the women’s stage and has entertained crowds over 10000. She has also toured with Canadian artist Mauvey with whom she collaborated with on the track ‘Pillow’, performing it at BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend as well as the Isle Of Wight Festival 2023.
