We were appropriately Mad At Love when we heard the new on theme single from Lea Aska. The artist impressively wades between the realms of Brandi Carlile and Nick Drake. Its a testatment to her calm and candid demeanor and lush harmonious vocal presence. Its also a reflection of the songs gorgeous arrangments, one where Lea plays hypnotist within the throes of cinematic orchestration.
To whoever inspired this conflicted romantic quarrel, we can’t help but be thankful.

They call themselves Say Something In The Morning, and their new song Deny Deny Deny is a charming musical sentiment. The sweet folk pop duet adds some modern lingo to a vibe familiar to the Mamas and Papas. We also hear similarities to the Magnetic Zeroes and Shovel and Rope. Its a testament to their genuine spirit and underground aura. Get back to your roots.

Rob Joynes caught our attention with his new single Forest of a Day. The imaginative intro effectively transports you into this dreamy indie folk musical journey. The inspired production channels an influence of Bon Iver. In that way Joynes will also connect with fans of Japanese House and Clairo. Joynes own vocal touches add the final cinematic touch. Forest of a Day sounds otherworldy.

There’s an intriguing nostalgic reverence to Returning Green, the new single from Lage Sol. It’s immediately heard in the sanctimonious slide guitar. It’s in that moment the memory of George Harrison ignites your soul. Lage Sol honors that influence and adapts it further into the indie folk canon. The dreamy vocals add a touch familiar to Sufjan Stevens or Fleet Foxes. Its intoxicating.
