August 2021 [Lucerne,
Switzerland] Ajay Mathur, the internationally acclaimed and Grammy nominated
singer-songwriter releases the digital single “Feel-Good Songs for Hard Times”
with two catchy, upbeat and celebratory feel-good songs for times like these.
These are extraordinary
times. Times when we are asking ourselves the hard questions about what is
important in life. We are confronted with a pandemic, climate change, unrest
and division like never before. If nothing else, recent times have shown us
how dearly we need human connection and closeness. Most of all, we need to
somehow feel good again.
With that pursuit of
positivity in mind, Ajay Mathur collaborated during the pandemic with artist
from different cultural backgrounds to create several feel-good songs for
hard times like these. Ajay is releasing two of them as a digital EP
“Feel-Good Songs For Hard Times”:
A-Side. “I Need You Now”
(ISCR: USHM82163493)
– a powerful new song about
connectedness and positive human relationship. "I NEED YOU NOW" is a
"feel-good" song bursting with melody, groove and positivity. Ajay
mixes, in his unique way, his rock-music world with the magic of the Indian
Sitar, played by the Sitar master Kalyanjit Das, and Tablas, played by Sandip
Banerjee. These blend perfectly with his driving guitars and infectious
harmony vocals of Adriana Husy & Patrizia Scarnato, which further fuel
the celebratory mood.
“If
nothing else, recent times have shown us how dearly we need human connection
and closeness. Admitting that we are vulnerable or lonely is not always easy,
but the rewards can be great. ‘I Need You Now’ is about stepping over our
shadows and saying it out loud. I need you. Now! “
- Ajay Mathur
B-SIde. “Let’s Come Together”
(ISRC: USL4R2054437)
– an anthem of unity, compassion and respect, which Ajay co-wrote and co-sang
with the Afro American Blues singer Paul J. Miles. ‘Let’s Come Together’ is a
song about what really matters. It is about the strength that people find
when they focus on what binds them and when they understand that gratitude,
compassion, respect, friendship and love are what make us uniquely human and
capable of doing great things. Together.
About: Ajay Mathur is a Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter whose latest
