Los Angeles-based band JEMS will release their debut self-titled album on May 17 (pre-order). In anticipation of Friday's release date the album is streaming in full at Buzzbands LA. About the album Buzzbands LA says, 'JEMS (out Friday) has a lot to offer. 'Right on Time' speaks to yielding to the power of love while maintaining one's own identity. The organ-drenched 'Like Myself' reinforces the notion of taking a stand and finding a truth outside somebody else's “jurisdiction.” Album opener 'Take Me Back' longs for a simpler time — not out of nostalgia but as way of reconnecting with a spirit of freedom uncluttered by compromise. Oh, and JEMS crosses the finish line with a spot-on cover of 'Helplessly Hoping.'' JEMS have also announced a Los Angeles record release show coming up on May 18 at The Hotel Cafe. Tickets are available HERE and all upcoming shows are listed below.

Today the band shared, 'Right On Time,' the latest single from the forthcoming release withThe Bluegrass Situation. About the song the band told The Bluegrass Situation, ''Right on Time' is a true trio song. We wrote it together recounting our individual experiences with love igniting a spark in a dark or lost time. We have all experienced being on the right side of timing with respective relationships. The song sets a scene that begins in a somewhat slumbered state and steadily builds to an awakening that nature and the movement of the world is sometimes on our side. We love the way we get to share the storytelling of this song musically and lyrically as three individual but connected women.'

Washington, DC-based artist Heather Mae has announced the forthcoming release of her new album GLIMMER, due out September 20th. Mae is here to shake up the status quo with her message: 'Feel To Heal.' Unfazed by what a typical pop artist today is “supposed” to look like and how the typical pop artist is “supposed” to sound, the award-winning songwriter whose evocative vocals and rhythmic piano style call to mind artists like Stevie Nicks and Sara Bareilles, creates intoxicating music that tackles complex topics surrounding mental health, LGBTQ+ issues, self-love, racial injustice, social inequality, and women's rights. Inspired by her own personal experiences and identities -- a queer, plus size woman living with Bipolar Disorder -- and those of her multifaceted fans with whom she has forged connections throughout her many years of touring across the United States, Mae crafts powerful lyrics and unforgettable music about life's moments -- from the quietly chaotic to the explosive. 'Feelin' Crazy,' the album's lead single which premiered this week at Billboard, was written to shatter stigmas around mental health and as Mae says, 'to own her own crazy.'
