Ten Fé - All Night

Eight years ago, I came across Ten Fé for the first time when Ben Moorhouse and Leo Duncan (songwriters and lead vocals) were still a duo. This was with their song "Overflow." By now, they had expanded to a four-piece by adding Rob Shipley (bass, vocals) and Tom

Housewife - Divorce

The perspective is clear here: Brighid Day, aka Housewife, believes the breakup is the other person's fault. Still, she is left with nothing and needs to fill the new emptiness in her life. "Divorce," like her previous song, "Life of the Party," will be

JESSIA - I’m Not Gonna Cry

"I’m Not Gonna Cry" by Canadian pop singer and songwriter JESSIA, is not just " another break-up song" but serves as a beautifully upbeat pop anthem about resilience and making it through all the pain intact and maybe even stronger. This is great music paired with

Cornelia Murr - Pushing East

Dreamy indie-pop singer/songwriter Cornelia Murr enchants with the tender and utterly gorgeous "Pushing East." The gentle sound reminds me of the soothing vibe of Tamara Lindeman (The Weather Station), and couldn't be happier to have learned about Cornelia Murr! With "Pushing East," the

Chloe Slater - Fig Tree [Video]

Now I'm even more excited to see Chloe Slater live next Spring at The Great Escape in Brighton. The Manchester-based songwriter is known for her honest observations of the world around her. In "Fig Tree," she aims at the unrealistic standards the world puts on women

Tremendous - Slipping Away

It’s all too easy to lose track of things we like, music, and musicians we are fascinated by. The last time I actively heard about Birmingham glam-rock act  Tremendous, was in 2019 with the song “Copycat Killer.” The more I’m excited to have learned that they have a

Camille Schmidt - Stanley [Video]

With "Stanley," Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter Camille Schmidt has an absolute banger at her hands. The song's beat and earthy beat leaves you breathless and gasping for more. Good that Camille has her debut album, Nude #9, ready to be hopefully released soon. There is a funny

Alto Alto - Broken Fin

Oxford indie-rock band Alto Alto makes a splash on the scene with their mesmerizing single "Broken Fin." It's hard to believe that this marks only the debut of Alto Alto, which makes them one exciting emerging act to watch! I asked Alto Alto whether they'

Alexia Thomas - Based on a Dream

Based on a Dream, the debut album of Swiss singer, songwriter, and producer Alexia Thomas is a work of beauty and best enjoyed in its entirety. However, the title track is especially gorgeous: Alexia teamed up with fellow Basel artist Malummí to create a sweeping soundscape that indeed puts you

Song Pick of the Day

Tabi Gervis - Clearly

Tabi Gervis's new single "Clearly" delights with a big swagger and a touch of a jazzy, retro-feel while simultaneously forward-thinking. In particular, she's faulting a former (?) significant other when she croons, "you clearly don't know how to love." Grandiose! "

Xades - Weighting

Under the name Xades, Jennifer Schellenberg, aka DJ MSJY, makes beautiful, chill future pop. Her new EP Vapour is perfect for slowing down and dreaming away a sunset. It helps that she has a gorgeous voice in addition to her production skills. One can only hope that she finds the

Strange Flesh - Chaos Hearts

New York-based synth-pop duo Strange Flesh dropped their debut album, The Hardest Thing to Burn Is the Heart, on Friday, which is an elegant piece of constrained electronic music. We are fans of Varrick Zed (vocals, synths) and Ed Zed's (vocals, synths, drums, various noise) music since their

Milk & Bone - Forgone [Video]

Laurence Lafond-Beaulne and Camille Poliquin have created synth-pop together as Milk & Bone since 2015. We saw them at SXSW one year later, so why did it take us eight more years to write about them here on glamglare? Let's end that streak with "Forgone," a

Olivia Reid - Quite Simple

And just when I thought I'd heard "the best," aka my favorite songs of the year already, along comes Olivia Reid with "Quite Simple," and empowers my music-loving heart with joy and beauty. When I fell in love with Olivia Reid's unique

Song Pick of the Day

Laura Reznek - Endeavours

"Endeavours" is about grief, and the new song by Laura Reznek is as multi-layered as the emotion. The UK-based singer/songwriter collaborated with an eclectic group of musicians and recorded the track live in a church to produce a warm and organic sound. Laura says about the song:

zzzahara - It Didn’t Mean Nothing

Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter zzzahara released "It Didn’t Mean Nothing" today, and the highly alluring song might very well be the last single before the album drops on January 10 on Lex Records. Titled Spiral Your Way Out, the tracks on the album deal with relationship struggles

Song Pick of the Day

Ski Team - Me [Video]

"Me" is an absolutely gorgeous song about "the struggle of adjusting someone's role in your life, or your own role to them, and giving up control in that process." If that sounds abstract, the song is not: Brooklyn singer/songwriter Lucia Lozinski, aka Ski

Song Pick of the Day

Close to Monday - Quality of Love

"Quality of Love," the newest single by darkwave synth-pop duo Close to Monday sparkles with finesse and magic. It showcases Alexander's analog and modular synth expertise —featuring Moog, Erica Synths, and Buchla models— that come together to weave a carpet of atmospheric tension around Ann’s

Ela Minus - UPWARDS [Video]

Originally, Ela Minus wanted to call her second album ONWARDS AND UPWARDS but then decided to make it the name of three tracks and named the record DIA. "I truly enjoy playing this live, singing it, dancing to it, it was a joy to make, it just flowed out

Song Pick of the Day

Malu Pierini - Souvenir

"I'm flying home in a month, I kinda wish I could stay," sings Malu Pierini in her newest single, "Souvenir," and I think we can all relate to that sentiment. However, in Malu's case, this is even more pronounced, with her French

Adwaith - Miliwn

The Welsh trio Adwaith has big plans for 2025. On February 7, they release their third album, Solas, then embark on a two-month tour through the UK and Europe. They kick off things with the new single "Millwn," an upbeat indie rock anthem that calls for enjoying life.

Folk singer/songwriter Shane Pendergast just dropped the quietly gorgeous "Winter Grace," a song that beautifully captures the more mellow spirit of this season. "Winter Grace" is also the title of his upcoming fourth album, scheduled for January 2025. On Prince Island, one of Canada'

They/Live - For the Pleasure

They/Live is the project of musician Whitney Mower, who I found through the UK blog Teases & Dares. "For the Pleasure" is a delightful, groovy synth-pop track, which reminds me of Moloko, a band we were obsessed with in the 90s. A heavy bass, swirling synth, and

Johnny Lloyd - Manchester in Bloom

Last time I featured Johnny Lloyd, the North London composer, singer and songwriter, he released the beautiful "Joypolis." That was in 2021. Further back in 2019, I came across him for the very first time, thanks to the grandiose "Next Episode Starts In 15 Seconds." Now,
