Indie rockers Robin Ross & The Melodynes present their new 'Mind Space' album. Their second album, released via Pennsylvania indie imprint RPM Entertainment on February 20, showcases their diverse sound, mixing their own flavor of indie rock and classic rock sounds. The band also presents their new video for focus track 'Campfire on the Moon'.

Previewed by the B-52s-esque lead track 'Spill No Mo Wine' and the single 'Echo of Love', a shimmering anthem of sonic intimacy, 'Mind Space' is a head-trip with heart, blasting off from bedroom daydreams into a technicolor inner universe. Built from raw acoustic bones and lit up with electric spark, it balances cosmic drift with dance-floor swagger -- a joy-chasing, freedom-fueled reminder that the wildest frontier is the one inside your own head.

Robin Ross & The Melodynes is not just about music - it's about big fun between like-minded artists, including Wharton Tiers, JoEllen Gaetani, Katlyn Albrecht, Emery Rhodes, Tony Anniello. Joe (Bass) Torres, TW Howell and Nancy Isola. That shared joy is woven into every note, creating an infectious energy that invites the listener right into the heart of the party.

"Into my mind we roam. If we close the world around us and keep your eyes open, you can see prisms if you let them through. 'Mind Space' is a world of prisms -- some reach far and some are close. The title track 'Mind Space' is about resting in bed and drifting to the stars. Being the captain in your mind you can go wherever you want. Other songs like 'Spill No Mo Wine' and 'Shiny Blue Shoes' are our party stamp songs. Whatever world you land on, let's hope joy and spirits are plentiful," says Robin Ross.

"Other songs are about the journey. 'Follow' is aboard a spaceship en route to Mars, while 'Campfire On the Moon' is about all of your campfires in life together with others in a secluded sphere like the moon. We give in life as we move along the 'Echo of Love', which is a song about love by JoJo. I wrote the music on an acoustic guitar and built from there, adding the Strat later for the edge. 'Cause I Do' is something we do when we fall in love along life's flight. 'Taking All of My Heart' is another change ball, more of a pop love song about being swept off your feet on your journey. 'Come On In' is about being welcome -- come in let's dance. And 'Curious Mind' is about being tossed around in a dream but waking up to hope and beauty in someone someday".

This album was recorded at Baa Baa Leaf Music Studio in Milford, Pennsylvania, whereRoss produced and engineered it, along with famed engineer Jonathan Duckett (Phillip Glass, Kenny G, David Sanborn).

"This album wouldn't be complete if it didn't have a few side pocket tunes. 'Free the Young'is one of those songs, recalling castles and kings, where tyranny was born to a new generation -- a crest that is upon us now. This is a message for youth to question history and fight for freedom," saysRobin Ross.

"The other side pocket song is'Sweet Jane', a blues riff song about a pooch named Jane. We were chilling with Sweet Jane and hit the blues and her master, Tony, wrote up some lyrics. We put this down in the studio and have been playing it ever since."

Emerging from the New Jersey and New York music scenes in 1988, Robin Ross has grown into a central figure in the creative pulse of Milford, PA. A multi-faceted musician, songwriter, and producer for cover thirty years, he has released numerous album while helping launch and develop several recording spaces, includingTriple R StudiosandSound Complexnear NYC. He has since grown his current hub,Baa Baa Leaf Music Studiointo a creative sanctuary and production house.

In the early ’90s, Ross co-foundedLaughing Jack(later renamedJack’s Maze), praised for a progressive rock style echoing the grandeur of Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin. Though business pursuits eventually pulled him down a different path, 2021 marked a return to form: he built Baa Baa Leaf Music Studio and reunited with bandmates Frank Cinquegrana, Scott Cowan, and Joe Torres to record new material, with a fresh Jack’s Maze release anticipated later this year.

As of February 20, 'Mind Space' is available on digital platforms, including Apple Music,Spotify, Amazon and Bandcamp, where his 2025 debut'Back To The Forest' EP asRobin Ross & The TW Howlers, is also available. CDs can be obtained athttps://robinrossmusic.com/ music.
