Obsession

“Joke’s on me is out now! I wrote this song with @ellavos last April — it started with a simple idea — before i was living the life I’m living now, before having the love i have now, i couldn’t possibly imagine a world in which it’d be possible — i wouldn’t even dare to dream it because dreaming it and then not finding it would be too hard to live with… but one day it seemed more possible and a hell of a lot closer than i ever thought… turns out the ‘dreams that we dare to dream really do come true’ <3” — @kathryngallagher You’ve heard the song (we hope), now enjoy the visuals.

Joke's On Me

“I spent half a day shooting in the Red Fort, New Delhi. Most of the time, it was sunny with harsh light. But just before sunset, fog started to appear. I asked a local friend photographer's wife to pose for me in front of this gate.” Known for his atmospheric cityscapes and iconic Dubai fog photography, @danielkhc has built a distinctive visual style that blends technical precision with a sense of scale and mood. His work has been featured by CNN, National Geographic, BBC, and leading photography publications around the world. He has also worked as an instructor and lecturer for Nikon Middle East and Africa. ‘The Silent Gate’ sits slightly outside his usual work, but it caught us.

‘The Way I Feel’ by @evenson - filmed by long-term collaborator @jacob_rodier. “It’s like my heart’s starting to beat once again There was such an intention toward positive thinking in that music — ‘I love my girl, I love my life.’ I wanted this to be a song that was so clear in its positivity…nowadays, I would imagine that might come across as radical. It’s like my heart’s starting to beat once again” Watch the full video. Link in comments. #VEROMusic #NowPlaying #CreatorStories

Filmed against the stark beauty of South Africa’s Tankwa Karoo, the cinematic project 'Desert Scars', starring @laziel for Nikon, is a visually stunning collaboration that brings the raw, untamed spirit of the desert to life. #CreatorStories #ShortFilm

Is God Is

Born in London and now based in Brighton (UK), @_rafferty is fast emerging as one of the UK’s most compelling new troubadours. His music blends the intimacy of classic confessional folk with adventurous, left-of-center pop experimentation, resulting in a sound that feels both timeless and strikingly modern. Growing up largely without internet or online communities, rafferty developed as a songwriter in near-total creative isolation, shaping a deeply personal voice informed by a household soundtrack that ranged from ‘90s rave culture and Massive Attack to the baroque sweep of Vivaldi. Largely acoustic at its core, his music blooms with analogue textures and subtle sonic twists, mirroring the inventive spirit of his live performances. Filmed in the studio by Andrew Butler. #CreatorStories #VEROMusic #Film

Country singer Alicia Blue at Skinny Dennis - by @tammievaler. Skinny Dennis opened in East Nashville as the second location of the Williamsburg bar of the same name, bringing with it a distinctly downtown-New York interpretation of the classic honky-tonk. Named after outlaw-country bassist Skinny Dennis Sanchez (a longtime figure in the orbit of Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt) the venue draws heavily from the aesthetics and culture surrounding 1970s country and Americana music, though without treating it like costume. Inside, the room feels intentionally unchanged by trend cycles: dim lighting, neon beer signs, a crowded bar, live bands playing country standards and originals late into the night. Skinny Dennis has built its credentials around consistency, strong booking, and a sense of place that feels in cahoots with Nashville’s current music community. If you’ve been with us for some time, you’ll have come across this singer and photographer collaboration once or twice in our feed 🤝 See the top comment for a super exciting oppertunity for Tammie and how you could make a difference. #CreatorStores #LiveMusic

“Icarus was inspired by my love of Greek mythology, and born from accumulated frustration in my personal life. I’ve watched too many men I love - friends, family, partners—struggle with addiction and self destruction over the years. After a while, it stops feeling random. You start to recognise a pattern. There’s something so innately human in the urge to escape: to outrun the mundanity of everyday life and the discomfort of being yourself. That’s what drew me to the myth of Icarus: not just his inevitable demise but what came before it: the reaching. The desire to reach higher, to drive faster, to burn brighter- but at what cost?" ‘Icarus’ by @iamalexamor - is out now. #NewMusic #VEROMusic #NowPlaying #MoMo

Mother Mary

A snippet of the visualiser for ‘Mystery’ by @chelseadaysband - out today 🛶 It’s the second single from their upcoming album ‘Drexel’ - a record shaped by nearly seven years of living and writing together in the same house. The track started as a loose demo before expanding through the band’s usual process: everyone adding pieces until the song found its final form. There’s something low key about the track. The piano carries most of the emotional weight, and nothing feels overworked. “All dimes shine in time” ends up being the thesis of the song. It’s unforced, and self-aware without trying too hard. ‘Mystery’ is now availale wherever you listen to good music. #VEROMusic #NewMusicmoves

10 days in. Still no looking back. Trading Places “Thank you so much to everyone that pressed play, shared and listened to 'Trading Places’. I wrote this song right around this time last year & it's the first and only song I've written on E flat guitar tuning. What took only 15 minutes to write, I knew it was special the moment the idea arrived. Truth be told I was nervous as hell last week, mainly because I haven't been that vulnerable, raw & honest on a released record before”. — @evenson 📽️ @jacob_rodier

Euphoria

Written as a rejection of expectation, and the pressure to become something more, ‘Stella’ marks a clear shift for @kathryngallagher. More direct. Less willing to bend. Now the official video lands, capturing that turning point in real time as she cuts away what no longer fits and leans into something more certain ✂️ cc @veromusic #NewMusicMoves
