MAYLIE?

As the granddaughter of a guitarist from a vocal-instrumental ensemble, she began experimenting with the guitar and synthesizer even before she could speak. It was her grandpa who instilled in her a lifelong love for music. Her Instagram account is entirely dedicated to her grandfather's guitar collection. The collection includes about 10 guitars of various ages, even from the 1980s.

If you asked me to describe one of the 2020's most popular musical aesthetics, I'd immediately jump to the genre that conjures images of haunted churches, grimy trailer parks and tattered American flags wavering in the wind.

TubeFreeks Debut New Single “Flower” Co-Written with Sevendust’s Clint Lowery
Hard rock band TubeFreeks have released their newest single “Flower,” co-written with Clint Lowery of Sevendust. The song arrives alongside a new music video directed by nationally recognized filmmaker Tom Flynn. “Flower” showcases TubeFreeks’ ability to merge melodic heaviness with the raw intensity of contemporary rock. It carries the hook-laden energy reminiscent of peak post-grunge while feeling immediate and present in its execution. The track is driven by complex drum patterns and heavy rhythm guitar that create tension and motion throughout the verses. At the center, frontman Paul van Valkenburgh delivers a vocal performance that is raw, distinct, and unmistakably his own. His voice cuts through the dense instrumentation while maintaining emotional clarity, allowing listeners to feel both the urgency and the intimacy of the song.
