In The Spotlight

I, The Mountain – “Little Wild”

Formed in 2012 while they attended Trent University in Peterborough, ON, this quintet of Canadian musicians became a household name across the city. Hailed for their high-energy performances, they opened for the likes of The Strumbellas and Elliott Brood. Now spreading their recognizable melodies and crisp hooks across Canada and beyond, they debuted with their EP “Land & Sea” in 2013.

Instantly titillating with a plucky bassline, their new single finds the perfect balance between 60s-inspired folk and contemporary pop. With a vintage vibe from the lively melody, the retro-touched vocals and the harmonic backing coasting on a modern production, it’s invigorating and moorish. Taken from their same-titled debut album, out on March 31, they prove being a little wild is worth it.

Pip Millett – “June”

Born in Manchester and raised in Stockport, this British R&B singer, songwriter and musician started playing bass and guitar at the age of 14. Influenced by the likes of Lauryn Hill, Joni Mitchell and even Bob Marley, she engulfed herself with diverse genres and emotive lyricism. Now based in London, she debuted with her single “Make Me Cry” in 2018, in which she lyrically tackles her anxiety.

With a velvety thread weaving its way through the enchanting soundscape, her new single is an ingenious fusion of R&B with touches of jazz and soul. The song envelops a constant bouncy beat with laid-back guitars, soft keys and a delicious summertime feel. And with her soul-filled silken vocals bewitching your ears, this pool of auditory tranquility radiates sunshine from every note.
