Celebrate Friday with a trifecta of new music by Australian singer/songwriter Woodes, the master of bright, airy productions.

London-based singer/songwriter Bryde has been winning me over with reflective but intense indie rock for almost two years and I’m happy to report that her debut full-length “Like And Island” is ready to be released on April 14 (pre-order here).
