David Ost releases a new track Fire In Alaska that I really like. It’s a mid tempo song that takes you a journey. That’s why D. Ost has a become a Kings favorite. His songs are introspective and poetic and they pull you in. Bouncing back and forth between Germany and Scotland, he now resides in Hamburg. The indie singer has garnered over 100k plays on Spotify while picking up streams in every single country. He’s working on a first album release in 2021. Check out the video here.

Zeplyn aka Rachel Wilkinson drops a new track Bad Love. You’ll love it especially if you like uptempo experimental pop. Having worked with Producer Dan Lancaster (Alissic, The Hunna, One OK Rock), the latest is her fourth single and probably her best. She’s garnered support form BBC Introducing and landed on Spotify’s editorial playlists. Zeplyn notes, “It’s definitely more upbeat than my last track, which was deeply personal. This one has a kind of danceability to it. I can’t stop my shoulders moving once the second part of the chorus hits’. Check out the video here.

Thus is the time of year when artist release Christmas songs. As each year more passes we get more and more, but like with everything else only a few stand out, and a small handful become classics. I do like Saint Djuni’s ‘Good To Be Home’. It’s fun, wintery, and Christmassy and will definitely work at the holiday gathering. The duo is made up of Clifford Goilo (Bakermat, Jeremy Renner & Bone Thugs N Harmony) & Rasmus Viberg (Next To Neon, MOMENT). Two friends met in 2 different countries (Estonia & France).

I’m really liking South London’s Sabiyha and her new single ‘Do I Matter’. Born and raised in Croydon, she has settled in South London. I’ll be honest, when I first hear the track, I thought of Rihanna, and that’s a good thing, because Rihanna is one of the greats. If you want to sound like someone, make sure it’s a great one.
Sabiyha says this, “This song is essentially calling this guy out on his wasteman behaviour. He gassed me to kingdom come at the beginning, then towards the end, would make me feel so small. By the end of the track, I literally exclaim “DO I CARE??” AND THE ANSWER IS… nah. I’m 100% over it fam! I couldn’t be more over it if I was sitting on the moon, so…boy bye.” Give it a stream on KOAR’s Indie Invaders Playlist.

Take a quick trip back into the 90’s with Harry and The Chicks and the track Bow Church. It’s reminiscent of The Cardigans and The Sundays – happy pop. The East London based artist recently played live on Minga London’s IGTV stage and has previously played on BBC Essex. She was awarded the Undiscovered Live Music Project Essex Best Solo Act in 2018. The indie pop singer has garnered praise from LeFuturewave, Helen Scott, BBC Essex, and LOCK Magazine.
