Ollee Owens – “Edge Of Goodbye”

Raised on the prairies and now based in Calgary, this Canadian powerhouse singer and songwriter has been immersed in music since she was young. Blending wide-ranging genres, she’s influenced by blues, soul and classic rock to write captivating songs. Inspired by legends like Mavis Staples, Aretha Franklin and Bob Dylan, she released her lush breakout single “Every Step Of The Way” in 2021.

Capturing the moment of angst when second guessing a choice of partner, before realizing the riches of what you already have, her new single takes recognizable lyrics and wraps them in vivid blues-pop hues. With a driving beat, playful keys and howling rock guitars laying down the tune, it’s the rawness of her dynamic vocals that fills this jam with passion and makes it sound utterly irresistible.

Cosmic Crooner – “Girlfriend”

Based in Amsterdam, this is the vintage-dipped project of Dutch singer/songwriter Joep Meyer. He started making music at the age of 14, after receiving a bass guitar for his birthday. Wrapped in his love for the 70s, he’s created a blend of lounge pop and psychedelic rock he calls ‘doowop space pop’. Inspired by Lou Reed, Serge Gainsbourg and David Bowie, he debuted with “Deep Down In Jazz” in 2021.

Starting with a playful piano and a mellow rhythm, his new single is a laid-back journey to yesteryear. As the track progresses it paints a fuller sonic picture by adding retro guitar strums and crisp bells. Reminiscent of the songwriters from the late 60s/early 70s, it’s his suave, ranging to falsetto, vocals that make this refreshing tune sounds like he arrived in the present with a time machine.
