■ Junaco recently shared a live performance of their new single, “Paradise,” off their upcoming EP, “Blue Room.” The breezy tune is the perfect palate cleanser for stressful times, imbued with the duo’s signature harmonies reaching a state of bliss as they “ride away the madness in the blue.” Of the sentiment, singer-songwriter Shahana Jaffer says, “The mind is a powerful tool – we have the ability to shift our perspective at any given moment with practice and control. A strong sentiment I learned from my parents’ immigrant experience – that paradise is in your mind if you allow it.” Jaffer recently wrote for Atwood Magazine about being inspired by growing up in two cultures and the power of music to transcend. Co-songwriter Joey LaRosa adds, “… while we all attempt to live in the present, it’s still important to take the past and future into account. You are who you are based on the past. And you are who you are based on what you want and what you envision your future to be.” “Blue Room” will be released July 9 via Side Hustle Records.
