Jack River – Fool’s Gold’

Yet another emerging Aussie talent. ‘Fool’s Gold’ is quite Amy Shark-like at times although there’s a bit of a banger lurking in that chorus.

Bright Light Bright Light – New York Pretty

Super little scenic tour of NY courtesy of our man Rod. ‘New York Pretty’ is taken from the forthcoming ‘Tales Of The City’ EP (still loving that Maupin reference).

The Penelopes – Mulholland Drive

These guys did something very decent on a Lana Del Rey remix as I recall. I’ve kept my eye on them. New tune ‘Mulholland Drive’, whilst obviously very Californian in sound, manages to stay true to their inner French-ness. It’s a great tune anyway. The vocals sound like Mark Lanegan and Debbie Gibson. Yep, you read that correctly.

Stalgia – Spirit Animal

Cinematic, dramatic, epic – you get the picture. Stalgia have just shared their most stunning track thus far. ‘Spirit Animal’ will take your breath away – absolutely divine.

Soccer Mommy – Allison

Fat Possum are releasing Soccer Mommy’s mini-album, appropriately called ‘Collection’, in early August. ‘Allison’ is a dreamy bit of indie country.

TOPS – Further

TOPS’ ‘Sugar At The Gate’ is a beautiful summer breeze of an album. There’s a video for ‘Further’ which is pretty lovely too.

Courtship – Perfect People

OK so I’m calling it right now, this one could be 2017’s ‘Pumped Up Kicks’ or ‘Sweater Weather’. It’s got that warm, Californian sounding indie summer anthem feel to it. The soundtrack to the festival season.
