Iulia Ciobanu, singer and songwriter of the band Cherry Blaster from Toronto, Canada lets us witness the process of finding an important decision: is she engaging into a relationship for the right reasons? You can imagine Iulia laying on a sofa in a sunlit room while she lets all those thoughts cross her mind. The music gently carries her stream of consciousness: there may be a heartbreak lurking in the future, but at this very moment, things are pretty much okay.
Californian three-piece The Drives could as well have met in early 2000 and not only in 2017 because of the cool and catchy indie-rock they create. It was 2017 when singer and songwriter Andrew Levin and guitarist Casey Chen met over their bedroom recordings and formed The Drives. Later that[…]
Promise and the Monster is the project of Swedish singer/songwriter Billie Lidahl. Listen to her new song “Closed My Eyes” and it becomes clear why she has shared stages with Chelsea Wolfe.

She says: “’Power’ is a manifestation of strength; something I was looking up and looking towards. I wrote this song to try to get closer to trusting the magnitude of myself as a solitary being.” The song brings her point home with a an alternating pattern of a melancholic guitar line and crunchy riffs. After all, everything has its ups and downs.

When we heard of Nashville-based singer/songwriter Pauline Andres for the first time in 2016, she did a particular dark brand of Americana. But now, in times when it is difficult to get together to make music, she turned to warm electronics to craft her new track “Til The End of the World.”
Canadian singer/songwriter Elise Boulanger releases the utterly gorgeous “Cigarettes et Rosé” today. With her crisp and confident vocals, as well as impressive songwriting creativity and skills, she evokes the legendary Kate Bush big time. Warm string tones are contrasting with austere drum rolls and marching beats. While living in France,[…]
The future is female and faking support for feminist causes will not save patriarchalism. That is the message singer, songwriter and producer Samantha Margret has for a particular annoying type of man. There is a good dose of menace in way the song builds: she knows that she will win, but it is not going to be easy.
