Finding new music can be a stressful task, but we’ve taken some of the aggro out of your life by compiling a weekly pick of the best. On our radar this week are releases from Earl, Emma Blackery, Hayley Kiyoko and SLO.
Earl – ‘I Love You’
Sometimes a simple recipe is always the tastiest, and that’s certainly the case with Earl’s ‘I Love You’. Earl’s simplistic songwriting showcases her incredible voice in this laid back, jazz-tinged tune for the summer. The video sees Earl in a fairy-tale like setting and was shot in Careville Castle one of the most haunted castles in the world.

Hayley Kiyoko – ‘Gravel To Tempo’
Hayley Kiyoko shot into the public eye last year for her single, ‘Girls Like Girls’ featuring a video in which two girls struggle to accept their sexual identities, which has since surpassed 43 million views. ‘Gravel To Tempo’ is Hayley’s first offering from her upcoming EP ‘Citrine’.
Hayley’s latest offering also comes with a video directed by the 25-year-old, which paints the perfect picture of teenage angst.

SLO – ‘Atone Ft Bearcubs’
