Favourite Kid – “Eyes On The Road”

Originally from Wales, UK and raised in Queensland, this Australian sibling trio consists of Ethan, Jaimie and Saul Roberts. All three attended RockSkool at the Australian Institute Of Country Music. Ethan started writing songs and performing solo as Aspy Jones, before his siblings joined him in this new endeavour. They played festivals like Woodford Folk Festival and Caloundra Music Festival. Inspired by Mumford & Sons, Sheppard and George Ezra, they debuted with “I Know More” in 2024.

Encouraging us to see life like a ride, rather than a race, their new single focuses on the need to move at your own pace and to not compare yourself to others. Taken from their upcoming debut album “Two Cent Journal”, expected on November 21st, this bubbly song is a blend of vibrant pop with perky country. Starting the vivid melody with some sun-soaked guitars and joined by a rosy rhythm, it’s the sheer optimism in the vocals that douse this sanguine tune in pure sunshine.

Satya – “Realness”

Born in Morocco and raised in Montreal after being adopted into a loving family, this Canadian singer and songwriter did have to face harsh challenges like bullying and later addiction and mental health problems. She chose music as a way to deal with those struggles. Incorporating her vast life’s experiences into her lyrics, she’s created a fine R&B-pop blend. Inspired by artists such as Whitney Houston, Alicia Keys and Mary J. Blige, she debuted with “Maybe We Should” in 2018.

Singing about finding true love in an otherwise chaotic world, her new single finds a balance between sensuality and strength. Championing that authentic and overwhelming love, rooted in trust and emotional safety, the song blends contemporary R&B tones with a lyrical warm embrace. Starting with crisp guitar plucks, the melody soon evolves with a soft synth and a mellow beat. And with her sleek, enchanting vocals, this intimate tune is a relatable slice of delectable, soulful R&B.
