Lavendine – “Who Cares If I’m Alone”

Born in Kansas and raised in Oklahoma, twins Jacy and Jana Ayers discovered their affinity for music early on, singing in church at the age of 4. After two years of college, they moved to Nashville to pursue their dream. Along the way both faced significant health challenges, but through their resilience they came out on the other end more determent to reignite their dream. Inspired by Heart, The Bee Gees and Chicago, they released their debut “You Can’t Change My Mind” in 2013.

Forged from betrayal and capturing the emotional process of moving on, their new single delivers a message of resilience and takes a stand against dependence and settling for less. Taken from their upcoming EP “Deep Blue”, expected in October, the rich melody starts with a 70s-touched, ethereal vibe and develops into an 80s pop-rock anthem. With a driving drums and soaring guitars creating melodic finesse, it’s the authentic honesty of their vocals that make this a bittersweet gem.

Mercy Kelly – “Speak Too Soon”

Hailing from Manchester, this five-piece indie-rock band comprises of Jack Marland, Adam Bridge, Joel Buckley, Leon Hepke and Jacob Simpson. The first steps were made in 2018 when Jack and Adam met on the open mic circuit. The others joined not long after. Since their inception they’ve played at various venues across the country and festivals like Tramlines and Kendal Calling. Drawing inspiration from U2, The Killers and Led Zeppelin, they released their debut single “Anymore” in 2021.

With relatable, introspective lyrics about the ups and downs of life, their new single highlights that all too familiar moment when you realise you said too much. Opening with a sea of warm guitars, we’re invited into their nostalgic, 90s Britpop-touched sonic world. This ascends to an anthemic-sized chorus, brimming with lively percussion and fiery guitars. While never losing sight of the imposing vocals, this expertly crafted pop-rock groove is filled with rich, infectious energy.
