Corey Quinn faces a heave dose of imposter syndrome on his recent Poser. The Vermont native finds truth in humility on this convincing release. The candid feel of his vocal performance lands authentic while the layered design shimmers and shines groovily.
Poser is a sweet chill alt folk feel with real crossover potential. It bridges the gap between Alex G and Sufjan Stevens. We can dig it.

On her latest single, Sara Trunzo offers a delectable take on Malcom Holcombe’s composition In Your Mercy. This heartfelt laurel canon feel lands nostalgic.
It’s ripe with vintage influence while bending slightly into the modern indie canon. In that manner it treads the line between Big Thief and Emmy Lou Harris. We’re super into it.

Nicholas Podany caught our attention with his catchy new single Angel. Featuring the harmonious complimenting harmonies of Crystal Lake Evans, the feel good indie folk breakthrough feels like freedom. There’s an existential brilliance to this vibe. The duet adds some cinematic vision as the two singers sing within and between each other elegantly. Love is bliss within the grace period of this refreshing revelation. Stylistically it’s a sure thing for fans of Darlingside and Ocie Elliot.
It’s just one flavor from Podany’s prolific pen. His new release is full of highlights, like the introspective I Look Up My Name. Effectively produced, it conjures memories of Badly Drawn Boy’s About A Boy soundtrack. We love it.

We love the passion and soul rising from Thomas, I Get It. The new single from Josh Gauton has spiritual reverence. The vocal performance is full of conviction and reckless abandon. The production retains that candid flow while embracing a calculated design.
The progressive shift between sections amplifies the imaginative aura. Gauton is making more than great songs. A exciting recording artist with real buzz potential, the new release is the kind of banger that could put him on the map. Stylistically we hear remnants of Hozier and Jose Gonzalez. That’s a great place to be.
