2Jessie Wilson
Jessie Wilson is thrilled to share her brand new single “Airstream Dreams” featuring Caleb Lee Hutchinson.
“When I was a child I remember dreaming about my future and dreaming about what happiness looked like in my mind,” says Jessie. “I thought I’d want to be filthy rich and have a job that paid well, have a huge mansion of a home, settle down in one spot, have the perfect husband and the most perfect little children running around in my perfect yard surrounded by the perfect white fence— you know, the American Dream. As I got older, happiness looked completely different to me. Happiness is adventure and spontaneity. It’s a life of music and travel. Happiness is being okay with not having a lot and appreciating the little that I do have.”

6We the Kingdom
We The Kingdom releases a new, holiday original, “Christmas In Hawaii.” The fun-loving, festive track details the laugh-out-loud story of the night Santa’s island deliveries were nearly derailed due to tropical turbulence with a coconut tree.
“Not sure we have ever been more excited to release a brand new song,” says We The Kingdom. “We started writing ‘Christmas In Hawaii’ earlier this year as something light-hearted and fun to bring us some much-needed laughter and excitement after coming back into the studio, exhausted from traveling for most of the year. We hope that as you listen, you will experience a glimpse of the joy and wonder that comes with the Christmas season.”
