Kety Fusco drops new single ‘Resistance’

Published

on

With her second studio album, ‘BOHÈME’, Kety Fusco transforms the harp into an entirely new voice, redefining what this instrument can represent in the contemporary music landscape. This is not just music: it’s a vision. It’s an invitation to explore a sound world that has never existed before.

Every sound in ‘BOHÈME’, which follows acclaim for Kety’s music from BBC 6 Music, The Guardian, Wonderland and more in the UK, originates from the harp, yet nothing is as it seems. Sound manipulations, underwater recordings, and unconventional techniques create a unique musical language, far from traditional boundaries. Among the boldest experiments, Kety literally submerged herself in a pool to record the sounds of the harp underwater, turning the instrument into a medium for narrating the unexpected. This daring approach shines in the opening track, ‘Hi, this is Harp’, a manifesto of sonic avant-garde.

Following her recent single ‘SHE’ ft. Iggy Pop which gained heavy rotation on BBC 6 Music, Kety is now pleased to present an exhilarating new single ‘Resistance’ from the forthcoming new album. ‘Resistance’ is knowing that from struggle and imperfection, beauty can still be born. It is the silent courage of those who keep fighting, even when everything seems not to understand or stands against them. To resist means not to bend, to remain true to oneself, to bloom where no one imagined life could grow. As De André reminded us, not from diamonds, but from waste, flowers are born.
And this is true Resistance: turning rejection into strength, scraps into life, silence into song.

All the sounds in ‘Resistance’ were created exclusively from Kety Fusco’s harp, transformed and pushed beyond its traditional boundaries into a personal, radical sound language. The hypnotic visual for the track combines stunning images of luminous flowers blooming amongst polluted beaches and concrete streets, illustrating the track’s themes of standing one’s ground and continuing to grow in amongst turmoil.

Discovering the harp at just 6 years old, Kety Fusco’s magnetic talent has now taken her to iconic stages such as the Royal Albert Hall, the Montreux Jazz Festival, the Swiss Federal Parliament, and the prestigious Euro Jazz Festival in Mexico. With over 200 concerts worldwide, Kety has redefined the role of the harp, bringing it to the most unexpected contexts: from the Notte della Taranta to the United Nations, and even on a tour of South America for the Swiss Embassies.

An unstoppable composer and creator, Kety has written soundtracks for a film and a documentary set to be released in 2025, as well as composed the theme music for the Rai Radio3 program Voci in Barcaccia. Her original works are a manifesto of artistic freedom, captivating audiences with their fusion of tradition and avant-garde. In 2024, she served as the Swiss juror for the Eurovision Song Contest, adding another milestone to her path of international excellence. The year 2025 promises to be a year of great achievements: in September, ‘BOHÈME’ will be released, solidifying Kety Fusco as a revolutionary figure in the global music scene.

London-born, South Africa-based folk artist Seth Tabatznik unveils his latest single, “Shining For Love”, a luminous and heartfelt composition that celebrates life, love and the natural world.

Built around layers of atmospheric acoustic guitars, devotional strings, soft shakers, and Seth’s evocative vocal delivery, “Shining For Love” captures a sense of reverence that feels timeless. Each element moves with intention, allowing the song to bloom from a whisper into a radiant, full-bodied expression of gratitude and connection.

This song came to me in a forest, spoken by the elements around me”, Seth shares. “It was like nature took my pen and transcribed the lyrics into my notebook, accompanied by a simple four-chord progression. I love how the song builds and accelerates as a celebration of life, love, and nature. Every sound, every movement, is her way of expressing herself as she is one being, of which we are a part, not apart.”

Now based in the Western Cape mountains of South Africa, Seth’s music is steeped in a deep respect for the land and the lessons it offers. His work bridges folk traditions, medicine music, and contemporary songwriting, echoing influences from Bon Iver, Noah Kahan, and Nick Mulvey, who also mentored Seth during the development of his forthcoming album.

With “Shining For Love,” Seth Tabatznik continues to carve his own path; one defined by warmth, sincerity and an unwavering devotion to the beauty of being alive.
