Artist: The Hics “Cold Air”
Album: Single
There’s something so delicate and yet so suggestive about this song. It slow rides along a ticking R&B backbeat, with beautiful airy double and even triple part harmonies, and is tied together by a weeping jazz sax.
Sounds like: The best part? This is a 6-piece band from south London, all aged between 18-21.

Artist: Naama Kates “Kings For The Day”
Album: Kings For The Day
“Kings For A Day” is really a quirky take on classical jazz. Namma Kates’ knows just how to play her spoken word poetics against her lush and mischievous vocal style, to cause a little friction.
Sounds like: Jazz-pop

Artist: Burywood “Blackberry Scowl”
Album: Some Kind of Golden Age
This is the second song from Burywood that I’ve really taken a shining to, but it remains his discerning lyrics, and on this one, even early youthful Beatles-esc pop melody that keeps me coming back.
Sounds like: Taking time.
