I first got into this New York based Californian singer back in 2016 thanks to GIITTV and she appeared on A Best of 2016 on the Moon and on Top Moon Tunes 2018 Volume 3 and I have Moonblogged her second and third LPs. Each of her LPs have been quite different and for this fourth she has gone mainly acoustic and folky, but her songs and lyrics are better than ever with more stories and characters.

Body Type – Tally
This band from down under were first brought to my attention by THE VPME back in 2019 and featured on The Moon in Top Moon Tunes 2019 Volume 5 and then subsequently in Top Rock n’ Roll 22 and 23 with tracks from their first and second LPs. With this third LP they have upped the ante in terms of song quality, and it is top notch rock n’ roll from start to finish.

Seamus Fogarty – Ships
I was made aware of Mr Fogarty via KLOF (when FRUCK) with the release of his second LP back in 2017 and a track featured on A Best of 2017 in The Moon. His 2020 LP did not manage to float my boat as much, but this new LP is brilliant. Back in 2017 KLOF described him as an “Irish alt-folk and electronica alchemist” and it is more accurate with this release.

Paper Wings – Mountains on the Moon
Paper Wings is a folk duo based in Nashville composed of longtime friends and co-writers Emily Mann and Wila Frank and I came across them when the Spotify algorithm played them after I checked out the new Mamma’s Broke single thanks to KLOF – who have also featured Paper Wings on one of their Monday Morning Brew playlists. This is their third LP and it is gorgeous with some strong lyricism. Back in 2023 Ms Frank also released a solo LP of cinematic folk called Black Cloud.
