In The Spotlight

Sonia Elisheva – “State Of Mind”

Growing up in the UK with an English mother and a Russian father, this sultry British singer and songwriter was raised on a host of different influences, including jazz, R&B, soul and pop. She began honing her craft at open mic nights, turning pop songs into jazz covers. Inspired by Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen, she debuted as a featured artist on Glenn Gatsby’s “Every Now And Then” in 2021.

Giving her electro-swing roots a steamy jazz makeover, her new single is an alluring sonic seduction. Taken from her new EP “Hummingbird”, it’s the sleek keys, smooth rhythm and sensuous saxophone that conjures up images of a smoky jazz bar, while her tantalizing, honey-dipped vocals lure you inside. And once she’s got you in a melodic trance, there’s no escaping the charm of this silken siren.

In The Spotlight

SPINN – “People Should Know Better”

Hailing from the musical breeding ground Liverpool, this four-piece British band has taken the indie-pop scene by storm. Consisting of Johnny Quinn, Andrew Power, Sean McLachlan and Louis O’Reilly, they love performing at festivals like Reading & Leeds, as well as playing sold-out headline shows in the UK and Japan. Influenced by The Smiths and The Cure, they debuted with “Home” in 2017.

Lyrically making a political observation about the UK governments handling of the country these past couple of years, their new single underlines their frustration with a fiery indie-pop tune. Taken from their upcoming album “Outside Of The Blue”, expected on February 4th, it’s the reverberating beat, skillful bass riffs and virulent electric guitars that wraps their message in shiny indie-pop vibes.
