Selina Gin releases Oh My Heart, a mid-tempo track that blends indie folk and bedroom pop with a chorus built for sing-along moments. The song fits naturally on Spotify playlists such as Indie Folk & Friends, Fresh Finds Indie, Bedroom Pop, Indie Pop Chill, and All New Indie.

Known as the lead singer of Danish trio Nelson Can, who released two albums and three EPs between 2012 and 2020, Selina now steps into a solo career. Her first single Deep Blue in 2021 marked the beginning of this new path, and she has since built momentum through shows and recognition in Denmark.

With Oh My Heart, Selina is positioned to tour with artists who connect across indie folk and bedroom pop audiences, including Phoebe Bridgers, Clairo, Lucy Dacus, Angel Olsen, and Maggie Rogers.

Global pop artist Shelita returns with her new single Fade, the second release from her forthcoming album Into the Depths (out August 29). The track sits comfortably alongside Spotify playlists such as Pop Rising, Indie Pop Chill, Fresh Finds Pop, and Chill Hits, offering a sound that bridges mainstream pop and reflective alt-pop.

Shelita’s story is as compelling as her music. While skydiving over the waters of Seychelles, a near-fatal accident left her with injuries that paused her career for years. That experience reshaped her outlook, infusing her songs with themes of impermanence and connection.

Fade, created with Bellringer and Lamar Van Sciver, is a meditation on fleeting relationships. The lyric, “This could be the last time we see each other. We fade out, we fade in, but come on in”, underlines the song’s message of presence and vulnerability. Shelita dedicates the single to her late father, grounding the track in personal meaning.

With over 20 million streams, previous Billboard and NPR coverage, and a Billboard Top 25 album, Shelita’s profile continues to grow. Her sound positions her to tour with artists like BANKS, FKA Twigs, Raye, Jessie Ware, and Tove Lo, performers who share her mix of electronic textures and intimate pop.

Nick has written with Iain Archer (James Bay, Snow Patrol) and Matty Benbrook (Paolo Nutini, Dido). His music aligns with artists such as Ben Howard, Dermot Kennedy, Vance Joy, and Tom Odell, making him a fit to tour with Lewis Capaldi or George Ezra.

San Diego-based, New Zealand-born Estella Dawn unveils a haunting, genre-bending reimagining of Bon Iver’s Skinny Love—a track that proves she’s in a season of artistic reinvention. Known for her original work blending pop, soul, hip-hop, and rock, Estella’s recent releases have shown her different side—fearlessly taking on iconic songs and reshaping them into something entirely her own. Reimagining a beloved classic is no easy task, yet she does it with precision, creativity, and emotional depth.

On Skinny Love,” Estella infuses the folk heartbreak anthem with dark pop intensity, weaving bold piano chords, atmospheric synths, and sleek electro beats into a cinematic soundscape. Her raw, commanding vocals carry the familiar lines—“Come on skinny love just last the year”—with fresh urgency, capturing both vulnerability and strength. The moody, textured production makes it a perfect fit for playlists like Dark Pop, Sad Indie, and Atmospheric Pop, while her genre-blending edge would feel right at home on Fresh Finds Pop or All New Indie.

Produced, written, and arranged entirely under her creative direction, the track cements Estella’s reputation as a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and storyteller who refuses to be boxed in. This isn’t just a cover—it’s a cinematic reinvention built to pull listeners into her world and onto their favorite playlists.

Liverpool-based band Sisters is making steady moves with the release of their debut single, “Sweetness of Things.” Led by singer and songwriter Georgiana Genet, the group blends indie rock and rock with lyrics that examine the emotional fallout of loving someone who has caused harm. With lines like “Past the abuse the sweetness of things / Come to you slow then wash away,” the song speaks to the tension between memory, trauma, and attachment. Sisters is currently on a North American tour from July 23 to August 3 and will headline Rough Trade on November 14. “Sweetness of Things” would sit comfortably on Spotify playlists like All New Rock, Rock This, or Indie Rock Club, and the band could easily share a stage with acts such as Wolf Alice, Wet Leg, or Big Thief.
