A beautifully genuine and colourful collection of organic indie pop songs.
Folk Pop
The concept intrigues, occasionally striking a chord for its metaphorical poignancy, at other times feeling simply and literally like a representation of its name.
Fresh from the sun-soaked streets of Europe, an acoustic sound and style that tips its hat to the buskers and live raw energy of impromptu festivals – Renny Jackson’s River Roots is a pleasure to turn up loud right about now.
Featuring vocals and writing from artist and composer Daniel Correa, The Collective Bus is a project driving with organic pop-rock sensibilities that build up beautifully from acoustic delicacy to the warmer embrace of a full band.
Guiding the way with warm & emotive vocals, a simple piano backdrop, and immediately appreciative, faith-focused lyrics.
The simple strum of an acoustic guitar, the equally raw capture of live drums and a subtle electric lead, followed by long-form melodic structuring that tips its hat to the indie legends of yesteryear…
Following on from the clear & rightful success of Free, singer & songwriter Elyse Saunders returns with a beautifully heartfelt country-pop ballad – one that further underlines her talent & passion as an artist.
Beginning with the beautifully uplifting, energizing folk-pop offering that is Pour It On, immediately we’re gifted with strength of song-writing, soulful & expressive vocals, and pristine production.
Creatively taking its time to build & envelop listeners entirely, Crimson Calamity’s single Ghost proves an artistic & deeply emotive hit of story & song, with a powerful sense of humanity & depth at its core.
An absolute anthem of a folk-pop hit – you can’t help but get swept away on the brightness & positivity of the whole thing.
Things soon progress from good to great on the songwriting front, ultimately resulting in a realm that feels partly pop-rock inspired & partly of the Elliott Smith-esque contemplative writing style.
Beautifully crafted, unique in both set-up & concept, and precisely the kind of alternative, organic pop hit we could all benefit from right about now.
