In The Spotlight

Miya Folick – “Felicity”

Born in Santa Ana and based in Los Angeles, this singer and songwriter found her musical creativity at a young age. Despite that she studied acting at New York University, followed by a B.A. from the School Of Theatre from the University of Southern California. During this time a friend taught her to play guitar. Since starting her music career she’s toured with Pale Waves and Bishop Briggs. Inspired by artists like Joni Mitchell and Björk, she released her debut EP “Strange Darling” in 2015.

Taken from her upcoming album “Erotica Veronica”, expected on February 28th, she explores the experience of being a queer in a heteronormative relationship through her indie-pop songs. Her new single forges a surreal sonic soundscape, starting with some haunting electronic sounds, joined by mellow keys, before invigorating drums inject some buoyant energy. And with a retro-touched flute solo and her bewitching vocals, this honest tune has an enchanting allure to it.

In The Spotlight

Ben Ellis – “Burner Phone”

Based in Cardiff, this Welsh singer and songwriter is no stranger to performing. Having grown up in a music-loving home with folk and classical playing, he went on to study musical theatre at university. Since then he’s amassed a massive following on TikTok. He performed at the iconic Camden Roundhouse in London, supporting Henry Moodie and played festivals such as The Great Escape. Inspired by Harry Styles and Ed Sheeran, he debuted with his EP “The Ed’s House EP” in 2023.

Wondering whether an ex-lover will still think of you and secretly want to keep in touch with you despite having entered into a new relationship, his new single is a plea to hold on to what was lost. Opening the song calmly, with some electronic elements, bass plucks and a soft rhythm, it all comes alive with a melodic, slightly retro warmth from the peppy drums and sweltering electric guitars. And with his vibrant vocals, this vivid groove is a virulent indie-pop tune.
