Tis the season for Witches and Warlocks. The new single from Bailey Bigger is an honorable tribute. The sonic elements add an eery conceptual backdrop. They tease Bailey’s Dorothy presence. She’s the light in the darkness on Americana throwback.
Her performance is convincing. She bridges the realm between Allison Krauss and Joni Mitchell. Her lyricism is thoughtful and refreshingly poetic. We also hear an influence of Fleet Foxes. It’s incredible.

We adore the musical conversation at the root of Freckle in the Shape of the Moon, the new single from Plastic Idols. The contrasting voices compliment eachtoher intriguingly. When the male voice comes in he brings some edgy jive to balance the girl’s smooth timbre.
The yin and yang suits the songs polar essence. We’re into it. For fans of Magnetic Fields and The XX.

Something’s going on with Lina K.O. Her new single Wash Behind Your Ears is a reflective slow core odyssey. For reference, check out the music video above. Where is she going and why? Is it an escape or a required subjected healing. It’s certainly a sad song, and it’s beautiful.
Can you have it both ways? Why not. Stylistically we think it will connect with fans of Daniel Johnston and Clairo.

We got lost in the lush delivery of the vocal performance on Evernever, the new single from Child Lion. The singers emotive hush is immersive. It engulfs you like an amplified whisper. Altogether the moment is blissful. The minimalistic arrangement offers some space for you to take in the melody slowly. Its a comforting affect, one we delight in.
The subtle pitch effect on the voice breaks through in the bridge section. It adds a metaphysical otherworldly essence. Is this AI? Robots are kinda cutesy. Hear for yourself.
