KALI by Sophia Ziskin
The music of 16-year-old singer, multi-instrumentalist and producer, Kali Flanagan has so much depth and boundless energy you could easily be mistaken in thinking her project KALI is by a band rather than a solo endeavour.
The video for her indie-surf single, ‘Back To The Start’ has sweet Bombay Bicycle Club vibes, comforting as a warm hug on a cold winter’s day.

Liza Anne – Desire
We are huge fans of Liza Anne‘s take on indie.
Her new single ‘Desire’ does what it says on the tin – catchy vocal melodies and gravelly guitar riffs. Speaking of ‘Desire’, Liza Anne explains,
“This song is about having too much of a good thing. It’s a reckoning with a period of unhealthy habits and a hope to be better in the future.”
It’s the second single to be revealed from her forthcoming album, ‘Bad Vacation’.
Sounds like: Maggie Rogers, Bombay Bicycle Club, Wolf Alice, The Big Moon, Sunflower Bean, Sheryl Crow
Essex four-piece The Big Moon share their adorable video for ‘Your Light’.
Nostalgic in its structure, the song is about setting yourself free and enjoying those moments, even if it’s with the one person or thing in your life that lights up your darkness.
‘Walking Like We Do’ is released in 2020.
Sounds like: Karen O, Pulp, HAIM
