SOPHIE SHREDZ REVEALS “EYEZ ON ME” MUSIC VIDEO

Published

Emerging hyper-pop act SOPHIE SHREDZ unveils the music video for her explosive new single, “EYEZ ON ME.”

The music video was directed and edited by MK Kopp. “I wanted to work with a small team that I knew personally to help create my vision,” Sophie explains. “I wanted to come out of the gates with delivering something fierce and femme for my first video.”

Revealing a new layer of the expansive world of SOPHIE SHREDZ, the “EYEZ ON ME” video is exuberant and jam-packed with personality. Hoping to reflect the sentiment of the song and the idea of all eyes being on her, Sophie and MK landed on the idea of having an all-female basement fight club. “Somehow we convinced a bunch of girls to fight in a basement with me for 4 hours. It was perfect and honestly the kind of thing I would accidentally stumble into,” she quips.

SOPHIE SHREDZ is the project of New Jersey-born, Nashville-based vocalist, songwriter, and guitarist Sophie Ruggiero. She was raised listening to classic rock greats like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and Heart, and became an avid guitar player by the age of 7. While her current sound certainly draws influence from the experimental electronic world of hyper-pop, she also imbues her songs with a tapestry of classic rock influences, like show-stopping guitar solos and driving percussive elements.

Sophie is redefining what it means to be a modern day pop star — she’s bold, evocative, openly queer, and a fierce advocate for female empowerment. Her music reflects her own personal and artistic growth and experiences, making it both relatable and authentic. She hopes her music will inspire others to pursue their dreams and unlock a new level of confidence within themselves.

AMERY steps into the light with ‘Electric Love’

Published

Some songs aren’t just music: they’re milestones. Electric Love, the latest single from Belgian-Rwandan artist AMERY, is more than a comeback: it’s a declaration of freedom. Out now on all platforms, the track captures the emotional release that comes with choosing yourself, even when the world has tried to define you first.

From the first glowing organ chords, Electric Love radiates a quiet strength, the kind that builds slowly, then crashes open like a long-awaited breakthrough. Produced by longtime collaborator James Lowland, it pairs raw emotion with soaring, rock-infused energy, charting AMERY’s journey from fear to self-acceptance. Vulnerable, powerful and gloriously unfiltered, Electric Love feels like a soul set free.

What makes the song hit even harder is the context behind it. Written during one of the darkest chapters of AMERY’s life, it tells the story of a young man watching the foundation beneath him dissolve — his family drifting apart, his sense of identity unraveling, his safety net vanishing. And yet, rather than sink, he wrote. “I felt this deep void, he says. I started to look for comfort and distraction in other places and people, but I realized I was constantly running away from the truth, and straight into depression and toxic relationships. I had to let go of everything that was holding back my personal growth and find my light again. I wrote this while I was at my lowest, dreaming of the day I’d finally break free. It carried me forward.

While many know AMERY for the sleek pop anthems that even caught the ear of Sir Elton John, Electric Love marks a turn inward. It’s genre-bending, yes, but more importantly, it’s label-rejecting — in every sense. He invites us not just listen, but to feel. And as he embraces his queerness, autism and introversion without apology, AMERY proves that art is at its most powerful when it’s simply, unapologetically true.

AMERY is back, but more importantly, he’s finally home in himself.
