One can always trust record label Bella Union to bring forward some of the most promising acts out there. Newest gem from the London-based label is snowbird, a duo consisting of Cocteau Twins’ and Bella Union’s own Simon Raymonde and singer/songwriter Stephanie Dosen. The first track to be released from their upcoming album, the mesmerizing Porcelain, sounds just as delicate […]

South Coast dwellers Jenny Broke The Window have scored a trifecta with their latest single, Rum ‘n’ Cola. The third single off their forthcoming EP, Rum ‘n’ Cola is an intoxicating fusion of the Jenny boys’ own cocktail of indie rock and pop (see what I did there?).

Japanese indie pop five-piece Wallflower delivers a dreamy new video for their latest single Only in My Dreams, exclusively at Gimme Indie today.

Wallflower’s single evokes the same dream pop sound of […]

L.A. quartet Warpaint impressed us at the beginning of this week with their return after a two year rest. Constituted by singer Emily Kokal, drummer Stella Mozgawa, guitarist Theresa Wayman and bassist Jenny Lee Lindberg, these Californian ladies have just released the first single off of their sophomore album. “Love Is To Die” brings us the natural and usual spellbinding […]

Stockholm-based Hanna Järver creates beautiful electronic music with a taste of dirt and Budapest. We had a chat with Hanna to have her answer a few questions about her relationship to Budapest, writing in Swedish and sources of inspiration. Hanna Järver has previously been part of Swedish acts such as Gazebo Gathering and Reversin but just launched her self-titled solo […]

Little May are a Sydney fem-folk trio that have hit the nail on the head with their latest single, Hide. The sophomore release off their forthcoming EP, Hide is a lucky dip of heart-warming harmonies, clever song-writing and delicate guitar riffs.
