Saltwater Sun were featured a couple of times earlier this year and return today with the blistering indie rocker 'Mouthbreather' with a hint or two of grunge packed in. === Future Lives shared a video for 'Huckabee' a short while back and having reviewed a track from their first album, it's good to know the second album is on the way from these talented Americana music folk. ===   Hope Waidley has released 'Born Again' where her fabulous vocals are showcased above a stripped back musical arrangement. === Norway's Kaola Queen have released a bluesy rocker entitled 'Time' with bags of energy. === We have a beautiful soulful song from Sariyah Idan entitled 'You Got To Go' with some fine jazz vibes in the music. === Taking us into some orchestral territory alexdgoldberg new song 'Stay The Same' is a fabulously creative and rather addictive affair. === Finally today Colie has a brand new single 'Half Of What You Are' a

Sophie Kilburn - Aussie Scots - Oliver Spalding - Martha Bean - Ollie Trevers

Sophie Kilburn first single ahead of her upcoming E.P is 'Indigo Fever'. At the centre are Sophie's striking vocals and she surrounds them with a more than complimentary musical arrangement, that gives the song even further edge. The aptly named Aussie Scots share the brisk and pleasing 'Phenomena,' a song that mixes fresh indie rock with a hint of folk, and a good few hooks I might add. Ahead of his debut album Oliver Spalding has shared 'Xanax' a beautiful song that showcases his fabulous vocals, and excellent songwriting abilities. From Martha Bean we have 'Along The Lonely' which is a beautiful folk song. The vocals are melodic and more than capable of upping the power, the musical backdrop ditto, there's an E.P on the way, this is a superb advert for that. Someone likened Ollie Trevers to Jeff Buckley and I thought that's one incredible artist to measure anyone with. 'Stage Of Fools' confirms the comparison is not hyp

Mappe Of - The East Pointers - Debra Lyn - Zinnia

Mappe Of was first featured here earlier this month, so it's a swift return with the new song 'Faesulae'. The single edit comes in at just under seven minutes and it really is a feast of imaginative avante-garde folk, it's quite stunning. The East Pointers third album is due out this week and they have shared 'Halfway Tree' a refined and beautiful modern folk song, from this increasingly popular band. Mixing Americana and folk Debra Lyn latest single 'I Pull Me Down (The Maids Of Mitchelstown)' is more akin to Celtic folk, it's natural live feel adding even more gorgeous vibes to the song. We featured Zinnia back in March this year and the new song 'Requiem' is another creative and beautiful art pop track with plenty of passion in the vocals and a tight smooth musical backdrop. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mappe Of - Faesulae. The Canadian Avant-garde folk artist, Mapp

Strandels - Stoner - Eil Marchini - Gabriel Birmbaum

Strandels new single 'Slip' is a refreshingly melodic and catchy song full of indie pop charm. Stoner has a new release entitled 'Lacrimosa'. Described as a "melancholic, distorted ballad" it's all of that and very hard to ignore. We have a new video from Eil Marchini for his latest song 'The River'. It's a gorgeous mixture of alt country, blues and the occasional blast of full on rock and roll. Ahead of his 'Not Alone' album Gabriel Birmbaum has shared 'Mistakes'. It's a beautiful rocker, with vocals that fit the style and a mixture of guitar and piano giving the song a live feel. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Strandels - Slip. Strandels debuted with the EP 'Chance of Rain' 2016 and has since toured with Per Gessle (Roxette), played at The Great Escape (UK) and starred in most major Swedish television programs. The latest single "Love O

Marika Wittmar - True Moon feat. Christine Owman - Ttrruuces - Malena Zavala - Tuvaband

Marika Wittmar has just shared 'Underneath Your Hands'. The Swedish songwriter has surrounded herself with an impressive musical arrangement which contrast well with her distinct and powerful vocals. Swedish quartet True Moon feat. Christine Owman share 'Sisters In Arms' a fast paced post punk song with just a hint of Gothic vibes and hooks galore. Ttrruuces debut track in entitled 'Sad Girl'. Accompanied by an animated video, the song opens as a gently melodic piece. Gorgeously arranged with fabulous harmonies and rich textures of musical sound, it builds into something quite epic. Malena Zavala latest release is 'En La Noche' a song that somehow manages to capture the vibrancy of Latin American music and mix it with psych pop/rock! This is something rather special. Just over a month ago we featured Tuvaband for the first time and now we have another fine song entitled 'He Said Me Too'. The vocals are incredible and exude emotion and

Tayla Young - Gran Noir - Damone - Rue Snider - Plaza - Desert Sparrow - Jennah Barry

Tayla Young has a new single 'With The Fire' which opens in a gentle, beautiful manner and then gradually builds in power without overdoing it and allowing her vocals to shine right through. We have a fabulous song from Gran Noir entitled 'On And On'. The driving beat and melodic vocals are accompanied by a fresh new video, this is just so catchy. Damone share the single 'Moon and Stars' which is a bright and smooth alt pop / rock piece with melodic vocals and harmonies. Rue Snider has been featured on Beehive Candy a few times and the new video and song 'Chelsea' sees his music take on a more fuzzy rock feel, with a dramatic vibe. From Plaza we have their new song 'See'. The pace is slow, the music and harmonies conjure an atmospheric feel, and the distinct lead vocals really do add character. Desert Sparrow share a story line video for 'Karma', the song itself is a mixture of indie folk and sixties pop sensibilities, it
