Up-and-coming independent artist ARIA has released his newest track, “Broken Hearted”, and it is definitely a relatable one.

The song was produced by Boston & Pat, who are fresh off co-producing MGK’s “Die in California” and co-writing Bazzi’s Top 40 radio hit, “I Like That”.

ARIA describes heartbreak in dealing with someone who has taken things away from him, both physically and emotionally. No matter how hard he tries, it seems like this person keeps finding ways to enter his life again and again. 

The beginning builds up to strong guitar strums and the artist’s gritty vocals, reminiscent of punk pop era bands like Blink 182 and Sum 41, while at the same time adding his own modern edge. The backing vocals also add texture to the track.Upbeat verses lead into a firm chorus with an addicting beat you will surely catch your head bopping along to.

ARIA relatably sings about his distress that many of us have faced: 

“Make it hard to dream when you get no sleep, Maybe I feel better when I’m lonely, when she say she love me, I get cold feet… Maybe it’s cuz I’m so Broken Hearted”.  

With this song, listeners might feel less alone after getting their heart broken, since ARIA is able to tap into universal human connections.

Foghat’s Roger Earl Refuses to Slow His Ride

By this point in his life, Foghat founding drummer Roger Earl has visited quite a few doctors. But what may be surprising is that the percussionist, 77, is quick to point out that many of the medical professionals who have worked on him also enjoy rocking out.

“Nearly all the doctors and surgeons I know, they all play something: trumpet, sax, violin, guitar,” Earl said recently. “There’s not too many drummers that are surgeons, there’s probably a good reason for that!”

Earl half-jokingly invites his surgeon-rockers to join him and the other members of Foghat onstage at the Fillmore in Silver Spring March 9, where they will be headlining the Rock and Roll for Children Foundation benefit for the Children’s Inn at NIH. Earl, the only original member of Foghat still in the band, will be banging the skins behind guitarist Bryan Bassett and other members Scott Holt and Rodney O’Quinn. “Slow Ride,” the band’s 1975 megahit, is all but assured to be on the setlist, along with tunes from Foghat’s most recent record, “Sonic Mojo.”
