Nolia Jarvis

London-based singer-songwriter Nolia Jarvis has just released her new single ‘Male Gaze’. ‘Male Gaze’ is a defiant folk-pop anthem for the girls who are unapologetically themselves to a fault.

Written over the summer while reflecting on her love life (or lack thereof), ‘Male Gaze’ is an intimate look into the singer-songwriter’s mind as she bares all, exploring the tension between feeling unchosen, resisting expectations, and realizing the walls she’s built around herself may actually be the culprit of her solitude – both shaped by and pushing back against the ‘male gaze’.

Bolstered by the bass, organ, synths, and electric guitar lines of producer and instrumentalist Tomás Paúl, Nolia’s new single encourages both emotional car ride sing-alongs and quiet bedroom cry sessions – whatever feels right.

Emily O’Neal

Emily has released her new single ‘Dylan’s Basement’.

‘Dylan’s Basement’ is the embodiment of a reality check. With the backdrop of a dingy, dirty basement, Emily is faced with the fact that if she won’t make changes, she’ll waste her potential. This is Emily’s fourth single of her upcoming EP, releasing this summer.

Emily began performing in her local community in North Florida and writing songs at age 13. She immediately fell in love with the process of songwriting, and it became a creative outlet for her. Now living in Nashville, O’Neal continues to create and release new music.

giddy is a singer-songwriter from Sydney, Australia.

‘salt’ is the second single from her upcoming debut record, songs for awkward spaces. “The inspiration behind the record is the idea that any lifelong relationship is defined by how we get through the inevitable transitions and friction points that we rarely talk about – that either break a connection or deepen it,” she explains.

“’salt’ is about the dark side of intimacy. The people who know us most deeply give us the gift of feeling fully seen, but they also know how to hit us where it hurts the most, and the closeness we share makes us feel any tension all the more viscerally. This is a song about being at the end of your rope with someone you can’t bear to give up on. I think I’ve caused this feeling and felt it myself in every truly close relationship I’ve ever had, and I find it kind of comforting to think that the rawest pain we feel is so often a byproduct of the kind of deep love that will always endure in some form long after the pain fades.”

Dubh Lee

Dubh Lee (pronounced ‘dove lee’) is a songwriter and guitarist who has entertained countless audiences across Ireland with her honest lyrics and bold stage presence. With wide-ranging influences from folk, indie rock and pop she writes songs that examine excess, heartache and womanhood.

‘Sun Down Sad Clown’ is the final single from Dubh Lee’s EP FUFO. The song features a series of vignettes of a dysfunctional romantic relationship marked by stagnancy, anger and substance abuse. Each new verse has a different musical backdrop; the music shifts from a piano-led ballad through to alternative-rock driven by distorted electric guitars and back again. Inspired by personal experiences, the song captures a relationship turning sour and the muddled emotions of its subjects. A snippet of dialogue from the 1966 film Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf, features in the song; a section of the film in which main characters Martha and George are having it out. As the final track of the FUFO EP, it perfectly bookends a record that has examined the darker experiences of the singer’s past few years.

Box Blonde

Box Blonde is the music persona of Emily Mest — an indie alternative pop artist who brings unapologetic, intimate, cinematic romance to everything she creates. Her songwriting is daring, melancholic, biting, sad, but sexy. She captures moments of yearning with a filmic sensibility, directing and editing all of her own music videos. Inspired by French New Wave cinema, the bohemian love of the 60s, and the perils of modern romance, Box Blonde’s world is both intoxicating and heartbreakingly beautiful. Box Blonde’s debut album titled All Ends Well If We Don’t End is tapped for release later in 2026.

Latest cut ‘London Is All Over Me” is a moody, intimate track about the way a person lingers on you long after they’re gone — their city, their smell, their absence woven into everything. It’s equal parts longing and atmosphere, wrapping heartache in the grey, romantic haze of London.
