Mire Kay is warming up before the album release (April 4th) with another song, this time also with an accompanying video directed by Mats Udd. After this song, “Reverse” and the last one “Beat” I’ve got big expectations for the album, to say the least.

Pompejius – “Cracks”

Pompejius

The band Pompejius, hailing from Karlstad released their first music video “Cracks” now in the beginning of this year. The song is taken from the excellent debut EP “Come to My Rescue” from last year. A quite enjoyable song that breathes indie and American folk, coloured by warm horns and dreamy guitar figures.

With a Light Heart – “Lost at Sea”

With a Light Heart

The band With a Light Heart recorded their debut EP “Lost at Sea” in the fishing village Bua located on the Swedish west coast. They worked on a loft somewhere in the village and also in a church, and although I’ve never been to Bua, I can feel the atmosphere of the sessions there by the sea as I listen. The church comes into the picture in the first track “Sailin’ Away”, which has almost a hymn-like character. Then they glide over into two excellent Americana-vibing songs, heartfelt and close, and they finish the EP with the more grand-sounding “Homewards”.  I can hear their influences from Bon Iver and Sigur Rós among others, and they do this in their own personal way, so it will be quite interesting to hear more from them later on.

Mire Kay

The duo Mire Kay, that is Emelie Molin and Victoria Skoglund, opened up the door a bit some month ago to their new album “A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats”, which will be released now in March. They did this with the single “Beat”, a verybeautiful, melancholic song, which promises a lot for the album.
