Indie pop songstress OSTON recently released a new 6 track titled Sitting at the Kids Table, a highly relatable and intrinsically beautiful collection of songs that will leave you craving more. From the first lines of first track “bad” to the very last moments of “last time”, there is an energy to this work that is all her own. With raspy, well-balanced vocals, OSTON has created an entirely distinct sound to the entire album with just the presence of her vocals.

Songs like “give up” and “bad” employ earthy percussion and While “leading me on” is a smooth pop track with a subject matter that is absolutely exhausting, “way we say goodbye” brings us back to a good mood, in both lyrical content and a bass line that never quits. OSTON wraps the release up with “last time”, which is a future hit pop track if ever we’ve heard one. As we praised before, her vocals are more than enough to carry this song, with Mariah Carey-esque range, and the tempo makes this the perfect song to dance with your sweetie to. The bittersweet topic is something to sit with if you’re in a weird, introspective mood, but it’s presented in such a sultry way that you can enjoy this in an array of atmospheres.

Push this song to radio, guys. And as a whole, this release shows OSTON’s promise. We can’t wait to see what’s to come.

Keep up with OSTON here.
