Adna is a pleasant new acqaintance who released two singles during Summer and last year her debut EP. She has just finished high school and is now focusing on the music, first of all on the debut album which is being released in the end of this year, from what I understand. Quiet and soft, but far from insecure, accompanied by echoing guitars from the eighties, she slowly moves inte my room with her folk-vibing singer/songwriter songs, which grows upon me each time I listen. I will certainly be interesting to listen to her debut album.
About nine months ago Crying Day Care Choir sowed the seeds to two beautiful creations, where one of them saw the daylight yesterday and the other one shows itself to us today. The firstborn is the band members Jack and Sara’s child and the sibling from today is the new song “Folklore”. I congratulate them to these births, and it seems like we can expect more siblings in Spring in the shape of a number of new songs on their upcoming debut album:
The song follows the tradition of folk lore and tells tales about the married couple Jack and Sara’s many adventures around the world, accompanied by brother Bill’s bombastic beats. The song is a story told by the band while it is also the start of their next adventure with releasing a full length album for you sometime in Spring next year. (transl. from Swedish)
I missed Iida’s debut single “Life Will Kill You” when it was released in Spring. But as she’s releasing a video to the song today, I take the opportunity to present this folk-inspired, uplifting pop-song here.
Slim Loris released their second full length album “Future Echoes and Past Replays” in Spring. It’s first of all an Americana-inspired album, but where they pour influences from pop and rock to a varying extent into the mix. In the end it comes out as a shifting, interesting record with everything from earthy, melancholic folk to beautiful country pop to more dramatic pop, most of the time with a basic acoustic vibe to the sound. Here are a couple of songs.
Here’s a fine song from the band Kids On the Run, “Lies Beyond”; a song with vibes from folk pop, indie and Beach Boys harmonies. The band hails from Uppsala and has earlier released the EP “Restless Fields”, which is also definitely worth a listen.
