Frankie White made a nice splash with some cleverly adapted Nirvana covers, but our sources tell us that there’s more than meets the eye. The Northern singer is a true songstress. She spreads her wings on her new single bring me back. It’s one more chance for her to win the world over before another cruise whisks her away. The latest has a carefree Feist meets Lake Street Dive essence. Frankie’s top musical influences are Ingrid Michaelson, Sylvan Esso, Death Cab For Cutie, Birdy and Weezer.

Alternative dance pop and trip hop both have some stake in The Girl on the M10, the new single from My Secret Playground. An effective repetitive vocal lands hypnotic as the drama of the music swirls and adapts intriguingly. Memories of Thievery Corporation and Massive Attack collide with more organic indie aesthetics on this dynamic gem.
