London based artist Bryde has shared the first track, 'Honey', from her upcoming EP. The EP, titled EP2, is slated for a November release in many formats -- digital, CD, and vinyl. 'Honey' features what caused me to fall for Bryde in the first place, fantastic story telling told by an impassioned voice. Toss in a bucket full of fuzzy guitars for a two minute blast of indie rock I can't resist. More more more!!!
Earlier this summer, I missed Bryde when she stopped in Nashville. I just couldn't get in the door of the venue, the place was mobbed. I won't make that mistake again, hearing 'Honey', 'Nectar', and 'Help Yourself' live is a goal. Perhaps next year when I return to the UK. Find the dazzling 'Honey' below.
According to her Facebook page, Bryde is Sarah Howells, a girl and an electric guitar singing fierce and fragile songs.

It was just over two weeks ago when I introduced y'all to Seattle based artist Liyv Holman and her stunning One Song A Month project, and also her affinity for plants. Now she's back with September's offering, the spectacular 'Feeling Like Me'. And once again, we are all treated to Liyv's bewitching voice, seemingly tinged with ennui, and what's becoming her signature melancholic and whimsical musical composition. Not to mention single artwork featuring another plant. Yet it's not some throw away pop-song, Liyv digs deep into the heart of coming out on the other side of a trying existence with -- "I'm stronger than I've ever been/Now that I know who I am really am/I'm stronger than I've ever been/I'm never going back again/I'm finally feeling like me." Highly relatable stuff if you ask me, find 'Feeling Like Me' below.
