Check out the new track “Away From Here” by Grace Winslow, a perfect song if you’re in the mood for something chill, dreamy, and breezy. Grace, a part-time coffee barista and full-time artist, has released this as her third track. The track could find a home on Spotify’s Chill Vibes, Dreamy Vibes, and Late Night Vibes Playlist.
Grace says, “‘Away From Here’ came about when I felt everything was stuck and nothing seemed to be changing for the better. All I truly wanted was to disappear and get away from it all, so I wrote this song to do just that. I wanted to remind myself and everyone else that while life can be stressful, it can also be fun and free. This song is about a place where everyone can do what they want and just be happy—a place ‘Away From Here.'”
Check out A Days Wait and their infectious track “Lay It Down.” You’ll love it if you’re a fan of 80’s synth. Drawing influences from artists like Tears For Fears and War On Drugs, the band offers their own unique spin. The track could find a home on Spotify’s Indie Radar, Indie All-Stars, and Dreamy Indie Vibes playlist. They have a full-length album called “Long Lines” coming out early fall.
Look out for The Edge of the World” by Mindy Gledhill, a beautiful acoustic folk track that fits perfectly in cozy, reflective settings like a coffee shop on a rainy day. It could fit a home on Spotify playlists such as Chill Vibes, Dreamy Vibes, and Late Night Vibes.
Gledhill reflects on the inspiration for the song, saying: “Is there a safe place in your mind where you can go to meet your inner child? Mine is ‘The Edge of the World’—a literal ledge at the top of ‘Fickle Hill’ in Eureka, CA where I grew up. When I was a child, my high school aged siblings would go there at night with their friends to lay on the ledge and watch the stars or throw rocks over the drop-off. Ironic how the safety of being in the company of the ones you love and look up to can erase the fear of standing over a drop-off in the dark.”
This track is part of her upcoming album, The Phone Booth Sessions Vol. 1, set to release on September 17 via her own Blue Morph Label. It’s her seventh full-length LP and the first where she shares a co-producer credit. The album’s previous single, “Pleased To Meet Me,” has already garnered nearly 200k plays on YouTube.

The track twists and turns unpredictably, yet it all comes together beautifully.
Just popping up on our radar, check out Berlin based Fancie Eliott and her debut track “Delusional,” released back in February. The track is too good to miss, with its 80’s influence, infectious melody, and indie pop vocals.
Francie says, “The song conveys the idea that sometimes it’s better to cherish the idealized version of someone rather than letting harsh realities shatter your longings. It’s about the disappointment that often comes from getting too close and the wisdom in preserving a beautiful imagination.”
With over five years of experience, Francie has established herself as a talented songwriter, crafting releases for various artists and DJs, primarily within the EDM scene. All the songs she has been involved in—whether through co-writing or performing—have collectively garnered 47,000,000 streams so far.
