indie underrated

Sanjna-Missed Opportunity

Sanjna’s new single, Missed Opportunity, is a relaxing R&B bop that combines classic soul songwriting with modern production. Combining funky bass lines, Motown esque percussion, plucked strings and jazzy piano chords, the singer, multi instrumentalist and Harvard student adds a retro sensibility to her soothing vocal. Artists like Kali Uchis, Amy Winehouse and Lilly Allen come to mind immediately when listening to her creative twist on classic R&B.

George Solonos-Yeah, I Know

For a more sensitive, heartbreaking folk ballad, we recommend George Solonos’ new single, Yeah I Know. The LA based guitarist and composer, who’s collaborated with artists like Tommy Lee and Quincy Jones, has demonstrated his prowess as a solo artist with this new track. His masterful guitar playing and angelic falsetto lend a real weight to his heartfelt lyrics, as he sings to a long lost love of how he still misses them.

Soft Self Portraits-Dud Fantasy

Dream pop lovers looking for something with analog charm to spare should take a listen to Soft Self Portrait’s new single, Dud Fantasy. Leading up to the release of his debut album, Yam Spin, the Kentucky born, Seattle based dream pop visionary re-emerges after a brief musical hiatus with similarly hazy and lo-fi tracks that make the listener feel right at home. Slow yet groovy drums, gorgeous backing vocals and gooey synthesizers create a warm, retro musical atmosphere.
