La Faute is back on the blog with “Watercolours,” a beautifully crafted song that manages to capture the essence of love through the analogy of watercolours. The sparse arrangement of the track allows each instrument to shine, creating a gorgeous soundscape that feels almost like a bossa nova. The tapping, percussive rhythm slowly gives the …
Brittain Ashford – “Could’ve Done You Better”
Brooklyn-based Brittain Ashford has taken some time away from performing on Broadway to record some future hit songs, one of which is “Could’ve Done You Better.” And though it’s quite possible that you’ve already heard her music floating around the airwaves, whether on MTV’s Catfished or HBO’s Search Party, we are still taking it upon …
meira – ‘Manic Pixie Therapist’
meira certainly has an impressive list of accolades– especially for an artist her age. From having her cover of “Ain’t No Sunshine” receive over 22 million views, being featured and reviewed on television, and earning the National YoungArts Award in Jazz Voice, it really seems like she’s done it all. And now we’re here to …
Blair Gun – “Bennet”
Blair Gun‘s new song, “Bennet,” is a grooving indie/garage rock anthem. Starting with its deep, chugging bass line, the drums quickly enter, driving the rhythm of the song, while the vocals and rhythm guitar drive its melody. The lead guitar, at first, plays unusual notes to give the song a nice quirky feel. The lead …
Deadbeat Girl – “She Loves Me”
Valentina Olson, aka Deadbeat Girl, is a 19-year-old independent singer/songwriter from NYC. She has just released the achingly beautiful song, “She Loves Me.” She made her debut earlier this year, with her first track, “Another Day,” drawing inspiration from grunge and alt rock, but “She Loves Me” is definitely not grunge. With this track, Olson’s …
Kate Lomas – “Say It”
Kate Lomas has returned with her brand-new single, titled “Say It,” and it completely oozes warming indie-pop vibes. The music embraces a pleasant simplicity and the vocal is superb. The song’s bass line coolly propels the song forward, while the drums’ lo-fi vibe establishes a strong foundation. The track is made warmer and airier by …
Pynch – “London”
“London,” by Pynch, is a powerful and poignant track full of social commentary that speaks to the realities of the modern world. From the first beats of the drums and throbbing bass synth, the song draws you in and takes you on a journey through the experiences of a generation coming of age during a …
Cupid Girl – “I Drop Everything”
We are generally not the kind of blog that vibes with energetic indie pop, but there is a certain niche that an artist can hit that brings a sense of nostalgia that has been glazed in a fine sheen of modernity. Once you hear what Cupid Girl has done with “I Drop Everything,” this will …
Emma Bieniewicz – “Tobacco”
More often than not, when an artist mentions Phoebe Bridgers in their list of influences, we end up featuring their music on our blog. We find this very peculiar since we’ve only heard a handful of Bridgers’ songs– one of which is a Lord Huron track, which we already loved. Long story short, it looks …
miles from nowhere. – “A Little Bit”
“A Little Bit,” by miles from nowhere., is a beautiful and introspective track about life’s losses and loves. The song’s sleepy and warm mood is perfectly complemented by the distorted and quiet vocals, creating a sense of intimacy and reflection. The odd delay on the vocal adds depth to this wonderfully stripped back song. The …
