‘Sweet Nothings’ By Otlo: A Romantic Indie-Pop Song
Otlo, a singer & songwriter from Nashville has been cooking up his special mix of bedroom and indie-pop tunes since 2022. Steeped in the vibes of the ’90s, thanks to his childhood spent glued to video games and old-school media, Otlo’s music has this vibe that’s both retro and bang up-to-date. His first album, ‘Woozy,’ […]
Edie Yvonne’s Cover Of ‘Fade Into You’ – Better Than The Original?
So, a few months back, we wrote about this young indie pop sensation in the making – 15-year-old Edie Yvonne from sunny Los Angeles. Her tune ‘Delusion’ had us thinking she could be the next big thing, like the new Billie Eilish. And now, she’s back with a cracking cover straight outta the nostalgic ’90s. […]

‘Fate’ – Alexa Lash: A Lavish Fatalistic Road Anthem With A Folk-Rock Vibe
Alexa Lash follows up the beautifully soulful, folk vignette, ‘Missing’ with her latest release, ‘Fate.’ This sees her start her musical journey with guitarist Pedro Rubio and if this is the marker that all future work by the duo is to be judged by, then expect great things. ‘Fate’, is an affectionate, emotive, wistful, study into pre-determination which […]
‘Like Strangers’ – Shenanygans: Beautifully Bittersweet, Evoking The Spirit Of The Kinks
Shenanygans are a decidedly and deliciously retro 4-piece from Solothum in Switzerland. Their debut single, ‘Count On Me’, was much lauded upon these hallowed pages, so forgive my gleeful, unrestrained anticipation for ‘Like Strangers.’ The most joyous aspect of this, for me, is that I don’t have to do any background and can immediately concentrate on the […]
‘Miles Around’ – Peter Daniel: A Jazz Masterclass
Seattle Saxophonist sensation Peter Daniel releases the second single from his ‘Quartets’ project, through Music Factory Records. Featuring Marina Christopher Bass, Marina Albero on Fender Rhodes and Heather Thomas on Drums, ‘Miles Around’, is a playfully and effortlessly cool track featuring a groove so hard you could walk on it and the kind of bass lines you’ll be […]
‘Sleep Patterns Repeating’ By Camens: The Next Big Indie Sensation?
I stumbled upon an electrifying song by the Stoke-on-Trent band Camens, named ‘Sleep Patterns Repeating‘, and it immediately hooked me with its catchy tune. It’s a neat indie gem, well-produced, polished to perfection and likely to grab the attention of rock fans on the lookout for fresh sounds. Camens seems set to become a major player […]
Leah Callahan’s ’90s Inspired Track ‘Super’ from ‘Curious Tourist’
Boston songwriter and performer Leah Callahan has just released her fourth album this decade, ‘Curious Tourist.’ And, it has to be said, it’s a belter! It’s been getting serious play here at TIG, and we’re really enjoying the Britpop/Shoegaze/Indie Pop vibe. The album journeys through sounds reminiscent of greats like Blur, Lush, The Cardigans, PJ Harvey, and […]
‘now or never’ – myah: A Fantastically Catchy Pop/Alt-Rock Fusion
Born and raised in Florida, talented songwriter, myah returns with the fantastically crafted ‘now or never’; which at its very core is a love song, that expertly blends elements of pop and alternative rock. Now, I’m not one for lazy comparisons and sweeping generalisations, but there’s something comfortingly familiar about myah. Her music is easy to listen to. […]
