Best New Indie Folk -Eva Cassel, Shir Frum, Madeleine Rose, Karin Fransson

Eva Cassel is better than Good Enough. Her spirited new song adds some indie folk polish on a vintage vibe. The textured vibrance of the toned guitar imagines how Big Thief might produced Kathleen Edwards. We dig her style.

We got lost in the intoxicating essence of Shame On Your Smile, the new single from Shir Frum. The lead vocal has a hypnotic whispery affect with ASMR potential. The songs clever construction recalls retro shades of international folk pop. Overall its a sweet sentiment, as if Jobim seduced an indie folk starlet.

Sentimental nostalgia takes flight in the intro for Caroline, the new single from Madeleine Rose. As the song evolves Rose takes you on an imaginative journey that elicits visions of heartfelt reflections. “Where did the time go,” a lyric that rings like a trigger to enter a blissful collage of memories filled with smiles and forgotten faces. Stylistically she brings the aura of nineties songwriters into the indie folk canon. We love that.

Karin Fransson tangles the carrot on her recent single Resist Me. Ringing with confidence and bringing refreshing soul to an acoustic songwriter dialect, Fransson isn’t afraid to embrace her sensual essence. “I only do it because I can.” It’s an empowered statement that shines with freedom. Fransson has a versatile voice that commands attention within a variety of stylistic realms, on Resist Me, she offers acoustic sensual magic.
