Watch out for the track Lake Sommen by Sasha & The Bear.
The indie duo was formed in Brooklyn NY by Sasha Daniel – singer, songwriter, producer and Dov Igel – songwriter, producer and singer. They started releasing indietronica songs that immediately caught the attention of Spotify playlists. In March 2022 Sasha Daniel and Dov Eagle spent time in the woods of Sweden. There with very minimal equipment – sound card, mic, 2 headphones, ukulele and a mini Roland JU-06A they recorded a 3 songs EP telling the story of loss and grief after Dov’s mom passing in May 2021.
‘The song is about the donating feeling of losing someone u love and the way to cope with the loss. The endless questions and loneliness, how simple things as going back home from a night out can get very dark and lonely once grief finds its way in and how a simple gesture from a follow human can shine light in the darkness.”

Life becomes pretty heavy when you can’t brush by a little inconvenience or the fear of failing,” Hazlett explained. “So, I tried to picture what my future self would be telling me if we were friends. Waiting for me, cheering me on and reminding me of everything I’ve done so far. I think we forget that we need to encourage ourselves from time to time.”

“I wanted to write this album differently; the songs are conversations being retold by a friend of a friend,” he reveals. “Anytime you pass another person’s story on, you embellish certain moments because those are the moments worth retelling. Certain details get a little hazy, and some are vivid as if they happened yesterday.”
Indie rock outfit Alberta Cross released the new single ‘Mercy’ that comes off the forthcoming album. The track was written at the legendary The Wool Hall in Frome Somerset with Petter’s long term producer and collaborator, Luke Potashnick.
