hinds, “the club”

Hinds are back at it again with a brand new single, “The Club”, appearing on their upcoming second album I Don’t Run. The Madrid-based girl group is comprised of Carlotta Cosials (vocals and guitar), Ana Perrote (guitar and vocals), Ade Martin (bass and backing vocals), and Amber Grimbergen (drums). Having amassed a loyal following, the four-piece are now ready to start their world tour in support of the sophomore album. Filled with devil-may-care attitude, killer guitar moments, and a rollicking beat, “The Club” is the epitome of the unique sound that Hinds have made their own.

Hinds say of their new track:

When we wrote ‘The Club’ and first listened to it we couldn’t believe that we hadn’t [written] it before and that we hadn’t been listening to it for years. A friend said that it is more Hinds than Hinds themselves hahah. That’s why we chose putting it as the track 1 of the album. From now on it’s our presentation card.

As if we didn’t make enough of a scene with the incredible uplifting support around the world during yesterday’s International Women’s Day festivities, there is more support on the way with today’s release of LEVV‘s “Hands on Me”. Inspired by her past struggles with harassment and the #MeToo movement, the track lends comfort to victims of sexual harassment.

LEVV’s vocals are smooth as honey, leaving an Imogen Heap-esque impression on the soul. The tranquil, electronic backtrack makes the song incredible addictive to listen to, changing the narrative to one of acceptance, beauty, and strength. We’re impressed by her harrowing story, and know that other listeners will find solace in it as well.

Toronto-based solo artist For Esmé has just released her brand new single, “Doubtmouth”, off her forthcoming record, Righteous Woman. Filled with the musings of the singer and a shaking off of tradition, Esmé brings a refreshingly unapologetic message with this single. She says that “Doubtmouth” is about “the doubt that chokes us, and the labels that shrink us, to find a voice and body that refuses to be quieted.” The track addresses these hard-hitting ideas in a fantastically organized production of music; Esmé has hit the nail on the head.

Says Esmé on her upcoming album: “My forthcoming LP, Righteous Woman, is a feminist awakening and excavation of the voices within. As I worked to uncover my own internalized misogyny and to interrogate the things I repress and overthink, I simultaneously researched”. Her single is already giving us a taste of her For Esmé’s upcoming LP, Righteous Woman will be released May 25th.

flagship releases relatable track “the ladder”

flagship releases relatable track “the ladder”

The indie-rock duo Flagship showcases their new song “The Ladder.” The North Carolina natives share a gripping message on their pleading track. Listening to “The Ladder” for the first time was very relatable to me. It talks of how as members of a society, we just are expected to climb that ladder. So many of us do, and yet we end up in the same place.

The lyric “I’ve been working overtime,” really resonates with me as a young person, because I try to work as much as possible while balancing school and my personal life, which at times can be rough. The message I ultimately took away is that you can climb your ladder, but go at your own pace…or don’t at all. It’s your life and it’s up to you.

Berkshires-based Woodson Black is a swiss army knife of creativity: singer, musician, photographer, director, writer, videographer, designer, and producer. Under the name Haux, he released his debut EP All We’ve Known last year to great acclaim. Now, he’s back to bless the world with more of his multimedia skills, dropping a new EP, Something to Remember, on March 30. He’s just put out new single “Ricochet”, which encompasses his electronic-folk sound in a vulnerable and floating track.
After moving into an empty apartment with his girlfriend, Haux only had his prized Bechstein piano to fill the space. Recalling the sad history told by the woman who sold it to him of the piano being in her family for years until her husband left, Haux said, “That story hit me hard and was all that I could think about when I sang, “If I’m the rock, you’re the ricochet.”” This inspiration resulted in a stunning track, filling a soundscape of intrigue, emotion, and mellow instrumentals.

Haux’s sophomore EP, Something to Remember, will be out March 30, with an accompanying short film. Until then, check out “Ricochet” here:
