LISTEN: GIHE on Soho Radio with Blue Loop (23.10.25)

Tash, Kate and Mari were all back in the Soho Radio studio together, bringing listeners their usual eclectic mix of new music tunes from some of their favourite female, non-binary and LGBTQIA+ artists. They were also joined by London-based electronic musician and producer Emma Hall aka Blue Loop to talk about her upcoming debut album, Cycles.

Set for release on 7th November, Cycles is a deeply personal work for Emma, inspired by her experiences of being diagnosed with and undergoing treatment for breast cancer – for which she is now in remission. Emma spoke candidly about the context and inspiration behind specific tracks, the people she collaborated with on the record, and shared her excitement for the listening event and Q&A session she’ll be hosting on Saturday 8th November at The Cavendish Arms in Stockwell, South London, to help celebrate the release. You can grab a ticket here.

The Get In Her Ears team have put together another eclectic mix of alt-pop & indie gems, reverb-drenched guitar tunes, DIY punk bangers, electronic musings & intriguing experimental sounds for your listening pleasure. Scroll through our recommendations below!

In order to best support the female, LGBTQIA+ and non-binary artists that we love here at GIHE, we are moving away from using Spotify as our main playlisting platform. We have now set up an account on TIDAL, so feel free to follow us on there! We’ve also included YouTube/bandcamp links for all of the tracks below, so there’s plenty of ways for you to get your new music fix.

You can still access our GIHE profile on Spotify (which we do not have a paid subscription for) but we urge you to use TIDAL, bandcamp or YouTube instead. Happy listening!

ARXX – ‘W.I.P’
GIHE are always excited when total faves ARXX share a new tune and the latest offering from the Brighton duo feels particularly special. With a gloriously catchy, country-inspired energy, ‘Work In Progress’ (WIP) offers a rousing, empowering anthem; a comforting acknowledgement that we still have a way to go, a subtle reassurance that it’s ok to have imperfections: “It’s about trying. It’s about getting it wrong and getting it right but finding the beauty in the process.”

Another instant earworm from Hanni and Clara, the release coincides with the band being featured on the soundtrack to the new Sally Wainwright drama Riot Women. It’s certainly an exciting time to be an ARXX fan and they truly deserve every bit of success that comes their way. They’re one of the hardest-working, and most lovely bands in the world.

Beauty Sleep – ‘You (You’re All I Wanted)’
Following the release of their glistening debut album, The Whole Damn Cake, Northern Irish radical alt-pop duo Beauty Sleep have shared a wonderfully euphoric new single. Shimmering with all the lo-fi hooks and scuzzy uplifting energy you could ever desire, ‘You (You’re All I Wanted)’ is “a love letter to failing and not giving up” – a perfect example of the empowering queer spirit of the band. Watch the wonderfully wacky video below and make sure you nab tickets to catch Beauty Sleep headlining for us at The Cavendish Arms on 27th November! With support from glitch-pop faves Dream Phone and pioneering songwriter Lein Sangster, it promises to be a pretty dreamy night. Tickets on DICE now and are always cheaper in advance. (ML)

congratulations – ‘This Life’
Full of chaotic tempo shifts, cathartic beats and relatable lyrics, ‘This Life’ by Brighton-based four-piece congratulations is a much needed distraction from the monotonous nature of the everyday routine. It’s taken from their debut album, Join Hands, which is due on 13th February 2026 via Bella Union. The band describe it as “a bombastic ode to first world problems and that feeling of losing at life before you’ve ever gotten out of bed.”
(Kate Crudgington – Features Editor)

Lala Lala – ‘Does This Go Faster?’
Having just signed to legendary label Sub-Pop, Lillie West aka Lala Lala has now shared a sparkling, synth-driven new single. Drenched in West’s rich, syrupy vocals and twinkling hooks, ‘Does This Go Faster?’ is steeped in a raw, stripped-back emotion as it flows with beautifully existential meanderings. (ML)

Marina Yozora – ‘Touché’
I was so pleased to discover this tender dream-pop tune by Japanese-born, London-based songwriter Marina Yozora in my GIHE inbox earlier this month. She describes ‘Touché’ as a “love letter” to her friends and fans, which she softly communicates through her delicate vocals, emotive lyrics and atmospheric guitar tones. I’m really excited to hear more new music from her in the future. (KC)

Jouska – ‘California’
Another graceful, shape-shifting offering from Norwegian songwriter and producer Jouska here, lifted from her recent album, How Did I Wind Up Here? ‘California’ is a hazy reflection on her first visit to Los Angeles and “finding calm in unexpected places”, which she explores through her lilting melodies, soft vocals and bittersweet lyrics. “I have a complicated relationship with the U.S.A, especially now,” Jouska elaborates. “There’s so much about it that I find difficult and a lot I still don’t fully understand. But that first visit stayed with me. It gave me space when I had nothing left to give, a strange kind of calm in the middle of everything falling apart.” (KC)

skullcrusher – ‘dragon’
Another disarming, wistful release from American indie artist skullcrusher here. Taken from her new album, And Your Song Is Like A Circle, ‘dragon’ is a song about disassociation and how, as skullcrusher so eloquently explains: “It is a heavy thing to feel the weight of living and pull yourself back to earth.” (KC)

Dogviolet – ‘Now’
The latest single from long time GIHE faves Dogviolet, who were one of the eight bands who played our 10th Birthday all-dayer at The Cavendish Arms last month. The dreamiest of days! Talking of dreamy, this new single showcases the band’s ability to create utterly dreamy soundscapes as its swirling dark majesty caresses the ears with a soaring, gritty splendour. Of the track, Naz from the band explains: “This song is about feeling so consumed by thoughts of the past and the future that you’re unable to move forward with your life, mentally trapped in a cycle of regret and nostalgia.” (ML)

Talking Violet – ‘Destroy’
Having been big fans of Talking Violet since first coming across their immersive “dreamo” sound back in 2018, the Ontario band have since been making waves and garnering acclaim for two sonically expansive albums, and it’s lovely to have another gorgeous track of theirs back in our ears. Rippling with a swirling, shoegaze-tinged allure and shimmering haze, ‘Destroy’ offers an stirring reflection on loss and acceptance. Of the track, songwriter and vocalist Jillian Goyeau explains: “(it’s) about closing a chapter in my life…before moving on I kinda needed to say goodbye…It’s me finally accepting that people can both love you and hurt you at the same time and vice versa.” (ML)

Red Ivory – ‘Crashing Down’
South London four-piece Red Ivory are new to team GIHE, but we’re already big fans of their brooding, distorted sound. Band members Eiliyah, Berry, Frida and Ivy began playing together in 2021 aged fourteen in their secondary school music rooms. Since then, they’ve been honing their skills and developing their songwriting, which has resulted in their upcoming EP, Please Leave, I Need To Wake Up Now, due on 28th November. ‘Crashing Down’ is the opening track on the record and it’s a dizzying reflection on the heightened state of anxiety that can arise when you’re under the influence. (KC)

THE NONE – ‘Pigs Need Feeding’
On one of our recent Soho Radio shows, I declared that punk-inspired four piece THE NONE were one of “the best live bands I’ve ever seen” and I stand by that statement. Kai Whyte is a formidable front person, backed by the cacophonous, momentous sounds of their talented bandmates Gordon Moakes, Jim Beck and Chris Francombe.

The band recently pressed their first two EPs, MATTER AND CARE, to vinyl and released them through Zennor Records. ‘Pigs Need Feeding’ is one of my favourite tracks, full of Kai’s raging reflections on their conflicting feelings about self-intoxication. “I was feeling some sort of shame about my vices, but it was juxtaposed with the knowledge that actual killers don’t feel any,” Kai explains. “I like a drink, but there are certain powerful people and organisations literally arming terror states that kill kids. Maybe I’m not the scumbag.” (KC)

Pinkshift – ‘Authority Problem’
Following gritty recent single ‘Vacant’ back in July, Maryland punk-rockers Pinkshift are back with the fierce, raging energy of ‘Authority Problem’. Propelled by an immense seething power and the raw searing force of front-person Ashrita Kumar’s vocals, it’s a perfect anti-establishment anthem: “”Fuck ICE, fuck the left and the right, fuck the false decorum of rules and laws and executive orders just created to make people feel small and helpless. Only I know who I am, and if you disrespect me then I don’t care, you’ll feel my wrath,” (ML)

Hadda Be – ‘New To The Office’
A gloriously scuzzy new single from south London band Hadda Be, ‘New To The Office’ offers an all-too relatable reflection on the anxious hallucinations of a Sunday night fever dream. It was recorded by Andy Ramsay of Stereolab and offers a gritty taste of what to expect from their upcoming second album. (ML)

Gravey – ‘Blessed With’
Following a five year hiatus, South London duo Soraya Fernandez and Nick White aka Gravey have now joined forces with bassist Myles Morgan and drummer Jonny Jurassic for an epic return to form. Reflecting on the complications and unpredictability of love, ‘Blessed With’ combines a dark, immersive groove with a raw punk-tinged passion. (ML)

Breakup Haircut – ‘I’m Okay (I Lied)’
Having been big faves since they formed at First Timers Fest many years ago, Breakup Haircut played for us at New River Studios recently supporting Strange New Places and – despite being a person down, as Ishani had hurt their ear the day before – Ripley, Delphine & Jordan still managed to put on an absolutely fantastic show! Their brand new single ‘I’m Okay (I Lied)’ is a perfectly catchy slice of punk-pop that comes ahead of their upcoming second album, No Worries If Not, out on 28th November via INH Records. (ML)

No Other News – ‘Flowers’
I was pleased to find a lovely email from Laura, vocalist & bassist of Italian indie-pop trio No Other News, in my GIHE inbox earlier this month. Based in Milan, the band – whose name is a reference to a line from the acclaimed film, The Banshees of Inisherin – write songs that are inspired by “universal themes like insomnia, awkward tenderness, and using someone else’s toothbrush to clean the kitchen sink.” I love the juxtaposition of bittersweet lyrics and playful indie melodies on this single ‘Flowers’. (KC)

 

Wax Jaw – ‘Creepshow’
Philadelphia five-piece Wax Jaw create emotionally charged guitar tunes that purge suffering and express joy simultaneously, and this track ‘Creepshow’ is the epitome of that ethos. It’s taken from their debut album, It Takes Guts!, which the band released via Born Loser Records earlier this month. The band revel in the duplicitous nature of life, love, politics and sexuality, playfully reminding listeners that “the horrors persist, but so do we!” (KC)

CHERYM ft. Uninvited – ‘Sofa Bed’
A cute, queer collaboration between Derry stars CHERYM and new upcoming band Univited, ‘Sofa Bed’ offers a fizzing reflection on coming to realise you may have romantic feelings for someone you consider a close friend; a catchy sapphic anthem, interweaving sugar-sweet vocals and a fresh, punk-pop energy.

Of the collaboration, CHERYM share: “We’re both not ashamed to admit losing hours of our lives sat in front of the TV watching Kerrang! in the early 2000s. It’s safe to say we knew quite early on the exact type of collaboration we wanted to make and saw it as an opportunity to create something that would make our younger selves feel seen and valued. It’s McBusted but more homoerotic and way better looking.” (ML)

Charley Stone – ‘I’ve Gotta Know’
The first of three new songs recorded with The Actual Band, ‘I’ve Gotta Know’ showcases the endearing vulnerability and playful lilting energy of Charley Stone. Taking the listener on a journey through the emotional states of a hopeless romantic caught up in a situationship, it’s another example of Stone’s ability to craft a perfectly catchy indie-pop ditty. (ML)

Rival Queens – ‘Time Goes By’
Following grunge-tinged singles ‘Not Your Enemy’ and ‘Right Now’ earlier this year, London based artist Sally-Anne Hickman aka Rival Queens is back with a reflective new single to celebrate the release of her debut solo EP, Crown and Conquer. A stirring rumination on moments we can never reclaim, it slows with a haunting melancholy with scuzzy shades of the likes of Dum Dum Girls. (ML)

Francis Of Delirium – ‘Little Black Dress’
Luxembourg songwriter Jana Bahrich aka Francis of Delirium is back with this infectious new single, ‘Little Black Dress’, released to coincide with the end of her EU tour supporting Blondshell. Inspired by the feeling of not having your expectations match your reality, the track is an angst-ridden offering that Jana wrote in the hopes that the urgency would translate when she’s on stage; giving her fans a chance to indulge in the messy, chaotic realm of desperation and disappointment with her. (KC)

The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart – ‘Kurt Cobain’s Cardigan’
Not only does this song have one of the best titles ever, it’s just super beautiful. As beautiful as one of Kurt’s cardies, in fact. Oozing a fuzzy, nostalgic energy, it encompasses the whirring stripped-back emotion that shines through whatever The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart create. They explain: “We probably would have never gotten into the things we love if it wasn’t for Kurt telling all his 13 year old fans to ‘go check out The Vaselines, Beat Happening, and Teenage Fanclub’ – bands that have a pretty different sound to Nirvana, but shared a similar spirit.” (ML)

PINS – ‘I’ll Be Yours’
Manchester post-punk outfit PINS have returned with ‘I’ll Be Yours’, a gritty new offering inspired by the early emotions of falling in love and the expectations placed on women’s roles within romantic relationships. Vocalist Faith Vern considers ‘I’ll Be Yours’ to be one of the most “tender” tracks she’s written for PINS to date, but it still smoulders with the band’s trademark shadowy post-punk sensibilities. (KC)

Ezra Furman – ‘One Hand Free’
Taken from the same studio sessions as Goodbye Small Head, Ezra Furman’s acclaimed tenth album released earlier this year, ‘One Hand Free’ is her new standalone single. Flowing with twinkling keys and the distinctive raw emotion of Furman’s vocals, it offers a deceptively jaunty reflection on “feeling so bad you’re not sure what species you even belong to anymore.” A self-described slice of “loser-core kill-shot”, it showcases all the quirky spirit and strangely uplifting grace we know and love from the innovative artist. (ML)

Coral – ‘Garden’
Swedish songwriter Miranda Engholm aka Coral has returned with this bittersweet track inspired by feelings of disappointment and loneliness. ‘Garden’ is the first taste of what her upcoming new album will sound like, which is set for release in the Spring of 2026. Through her gentle indie-pop melodies and earnest lyrics, Coral gently dismantles her feelings and tries to make peace with the idea of “playing in the garden but without all of your friends.” (KC)

Ailbhe Reddy – ‘Align’
I’m so pleased that Dublin-born songwriter Ailbhe Reddy is back with new music! ‘Align’ is the first single from her forthcoming album, which is due in early 2026 on her new label Don Giovanni Records. I loved her previous albums, Personal History and Endless Affair, so I’m looking forward to hearing more from her in the near future. For now though, I’m content to listen to ‘Align’ on a loop. It’s a lilting, compassionate reflection on a big breakup, tentatively tracing how memories and emotions shift and soften over time. (KC)

feeo – ‘The Hammer Strikes The Bell’
Lifted from her debut album, Goodness, released via AD 93 earlier this month, I’m transfixed by this track from London experimental artist feeo. She describes her album as “an exploration of simultaneous yet opposing states of being; darkness and lightness, obscurity and visibility and most fundamentally, solitude and togetherness” – something which is epitomised on ‘The Hammer Strikes The Bell’. Her calm, meditative voice and mixture of ambient & experimental sounds is strangely soothing here. (KC)

Hannah Schneider – ‘Lighthouse’
One half of acclaimed electronic duo AyOwA, Copenhagen-based artist Hannah Schneider is now set to release an innovative solo album early next year. Rejecting the use of AI in music, she recorded the record together with other musicians at a residency at the historical Thorvaldsens Museum. The first taste of the new album, ‘Lighthouse’ offers a glitchy soundscape, interweaving sparkling layers of sound alongside Schneider’s beautifully rich Beth Gibbons-reminiscent vocals. (ML)

Hilary Woods – ‘Taper’
An airy, shape-shifting soundscape that stirs the senses, ‘Taper’ beautifully showcases the versatile songwriting of Irish artist & composer Hilary Woods. Lifted from her upcoming new album, Night CRIÚ, which is set for release on 31st October via Sacred Bones (one of my favourite record labels), Hilary says ‘Taper’ is “a song that honours a presence to one that is absent. A love song that only a children’s choir could express fully.” Retaining her experimental spirit, but also seeing her return to a more song-based structure, Night CRIÚ is centered around Hilary’s vocals, which act as threads of connection to the past and the present. (KC)

Penelope Trappes – ‘The Mercy of The Hagetisse’
This slow-burning, haunting lament from the marvellous Penelope Trappes is the perfect soundtrack for a gloomy Halloween night. After sharing her poignant album, A Requiem, earlier this year, the Brighton-based Australian artist is set to share a companion piece, titled Æternum, on 31st October via One Little Independent Records. ‘The Mercy of The Hagetisse’ features on Penelope’s new record, which she summoned from a place of grief and intense emotional vulnerability. Throughout the track, Penelope explores the compassion and the cruelty of Hagetisse – a witch, seer, or hag in Old Dutch folklore – through her melancholic vocals, un-nerving electronic textures and steady, somber beats. (KC)

Scrounge – ‘UTG’
We love South London duo Scrounge for their politically-charged anthems and their latest single ‘UTG’ is no exception. Despite being softer in sound, it’s just as hard-hitting when it comes to the personal nature of the lyrics, penned by vocalist and guitarist Lucy. She explains further: “As a queer person, it feels as though you never stop coming out; you’re always protective of that tiny bit of yourself that makes you ‘different’. This song is a reminder to look after and respect your queer and trans mates who are often not given the dignity and respect they deserve.” We back that all the way here at GIHE. Scrounge will be releasing their second album, Almost Like You Could, on 18th April via Ba Da Bing! Records. (Kate Crudgington – Features Editor)

Sacred Paws – ‘Turn Me Down’
The latest single from long-term faves Sacred Paws, ‘Turn Me Down’ reflects on the rawness of rejection; juxtaposing this poignant sentiment with the duo’s trademark jangly energy and colourful musicality. And, after a five year hiatus, Ray and Eidlih have now announced the release of a new album, Jump Into Life, which is due out on 28th March – and I’m very excited about it!
(Mari Lane – Managing Editor)

Dose – ‘Parallelogram’
I was thrilled when this track from Dublin four piece Dose dropped into my inbox earlier this month. The dream-pop band features ex-Bitch Falcon guitarist & vocalist/Coolgirl producer Lizzie who I’m a big fan of, as well as Merpire who I saw perform live supporting Ailbhe Reddy at East London’s Moth Club a few years ago. Dose have been playing local shows in Ireland over the past 12 months and they’ll be releasing their debut EP later this year too. ‘Parallelogram’ is the second offering from this exciting new band and I’m looking forward to hearing more from them. (KC)

Maria Somerville – ‘Garden’
A beautiful, atmospheric offering from from Galway-based NTS Radio host Maria Somerville here. ‘Garden’ is lifted from her upcoming album, Luster, which is set for release on 25th April via 4AD. Her soft vocals and lilting electronics melt into each other, providing escapism and respite for overwhelmed ears. (KC)

Anika – ‘Hearsay’
I love this shadowy new track from British-born, Berlin-based musician Anika. It’s taken from her new album, Abyss, which is set for release on 4th April via Sacred Bones (one of my favourite labels). The LP is a form of sonic rebellion for Anika, inspired by the 90s grunge scene as much as it is about the unpredictable nature of the world we currently live in. (KC)

Bonnie Trash – ‘Hellmouth’
Ontario gothic rockers Bonnie Trash release their brand new album Mourning You today (28th Feb) via Hand Drawn Dracula! Originally formed by twins Emmalia & Sarafina Bortolon-Vettor, Bonnie Trash’s sound and aesthetic has evolved into a fully fleshed band with an angst-ridden energy and edgy aesthetic to match. This track ‘Hellmouth’ is the perfect example of both. Check out the accompanying video for it here. (KC)

Daffo – ‘Absence Makes The Heart Grow’
The songwriting project of Brooklyn-based, Philly-raised Gabi Gamberg, Daffo is a new fave for sure. New single ‘Absence Makes The Heart Grow’ offers a wonderfully scuzzy slice of indie-pop, searing with a raw emotion alongside its fizzing hooks. Of the meaning behind the track, Gamberg explains: “I wrote the song at the end of a relationship, and in my pain, I felt as though the cliche about distance making the heart grow fonder was a sham… It made everything harder, the waves of emotion that accompanied reuniting and separating were too intense to navigate.” Definitely one to watch for 2025, you can catch Daffo live at The George Tavern on 13th May. (ML)

Raue – ‘Escape’
Californian duo Raue (pronounced Roo-AY) are inspired by the sounds of Softcult, Wolf Alice, Fleshwater and Billie Eillish. I love their blend of swirling riffs and soft vocals on this track ‘Escape’, which features on their debut EP, too scared to explain, set for release on 9th May. (KC)

Gloin – ‘Horse Fighting’
Toronto-based post punks Gloin are totally new to me, but I love their latest single ‘Horse Fighting’. It’s taken from their excellently titled upcoming second album, All of your anger is actually shame (and I bet that makes you angry), which is set for release via Mothland on 28th March. (KC)

Grandmas House – ‘From The Gods’
Following on from their raucous love song ‘Slaughterhouse’, this new single from Bristol punks Grandmas House is visceral break-up anthem. It’s lifted from the band’s upcoming EP, Anything For You, which is set for release on 11th April via Duchess Box Records. Check out the accompanying video for the track here. (KC)

Punchlove – ‘(sublimate)’
I’m hooked on Brooklyn band Punchlove’s latest single ‘(sublimate)’. Combining shoegaze riffs with twitchy electronics, the track has an industrial edge that becomes more prevalent after repeated listens. ‘(sublimate)’ is inspired by band member Jillian Olesen’s perception-altering experiences after a self-imposed lengthy period of digital and physical isolation, exploring feelings of “entrapment and suffocation within a reality that is inextricably bound by the powerful grip of the digital world.” (KC)

Calva Louise – ‘WTF’
The ferocious new single from Calva Louise, ‘WTF’ showcases front woman Jess’ fierce vocal with an immense power. She explains that the single is “about that feeling of powerlessness that occurs when we are in situations beyond our control.” Calva Louise will be supporting Bloodywood on their European tour, and you can catch them at Kentish Town Forum on 27th March – and I strongly recommend catching them live, as you can imagine it’s a pretty colossal experience. (ML)

BACKXWASH – ‘Wake Up’
I love the the raw power behind this shape-shifting track from Zambian-Canadian rapper and producer BACKXWASH. ‘Wake Up’ is taken from her upcoming album, Only Dust Remains, which she will be releasing via her own label Ugly Hag on 28th March. This new record has been described as “leaving the ashes of BACKXWASH’S critically acclaimed trilogy of albums behind and taking a bold new direction” in sound. BACKXWASH will also be returning to the UK to play Supersonic Festival in Birmingham later this year. (KC)

Alien Chicks – ‘Donkeyhead’
Brixton trio Alien Chicks are back with this belter of a new single. Taken from their second EP, Forbidden Fruit, which is set for release on 9th May via Hideous Mink Records, it’s another raucous offering from the post-punk band, spotlighting their ability to write tongue-in-cheek anthems that fizz with frenetic energy. (KC)

Rebuilt Boys – ‘Shotgun Divorce’
This is the third single from Peterborough-based queer/trans electronic noise-rock two-piece Rebuilt Boys. Full of jagged riffs, post-punk inspired electronics and pounding beats, it’s a raw and righteous anthem of defiance. (KC)

Laura Jane Grace – ‘Your God (God’s D*ck)’
A stark reflection on religious devotion and the ever increasing limits to free speech that the far right are imposing, this raging new single from Against Me alumni Laura Jane Grace oozes all the fierce energy and tongue-in-cheek wit that I’ve come to know and love from her solo work. (ML)

Rival Queens – ‘Not Your Enemy’
You may know her as the guitarist for artist-on-the-rise Maya Lakhani, but now Sally-Anne Hickman has launched her own solo project, Rival Queens. Born out of a songwriting course by Phillipa Cookman (The Singing Guitarist) that Hickman attended, Rival Queens draws inspiration from the ‘90s grunge movement and epic guitar-driven rock, and this debut single showcases Hickman’s musical prowess as its catchy refrain “I am not your enemy” hammers home its message with a raging sense of urgency. Crown and Conquer, the debut album from Rival Queens, is set for release on 27th June. (ML)

SPELLLING – ‘Alibi’
This is such a gear change in sound from San Francisco-based artist SPELLLING and I love it! Featuring Turnstile’s Pat McCrory on guitar, ‘Alibi’ is a cathartic dose of pop punk, featured on her upcoming album Portrait Of My Heart, set for release on 28th March via Sacred Bones. (KC)

Monday’s Child – ‘Problem Girl’
This hazy new single from Belfast-based alt-rock band Monday’s Child is a reflection on insecurity and the contradictory nature of our inner voices. ‘Problem Girl’ will feature on the band’s debut EP, which is due to be released in May of this year. (KC)

Brain Leak – ‘Trying’
Brain Leak are a bit of a supergroup of sorts – the project of Tara-Gabriella Engelhardt from the band Adjustments, the band also features Sid from The Orielles, Jess from Peaness and Giulia from Working Men’s Club. Combining a glistening raw emotion with a fizzing gritty energy, debut single ‘Trying‘ is propelled by the delicate celestial power of Engelhardt’s vocals, offering a beautifully resonant reflection on attachment and the challenging emotional experiences that can accompany it. A new favourite for sure, I strongly suggest keeping an eye out for more from Brain Leak – they’ve already sold out Yes! in Manchester. To find out more, read our interview with Tara here. (ML)

Ezra Furman – ‘Grand Mal’
The latest single from innovative artist Ezra Furman, ‘Grand Mal’ is first taster of her upcoming 10th album, Goodbye Small Head, I really love its swirling cinematic layers which ripple alongside Furman’s trademark raw emotion. Describing the album, she says: “Is it dark? Yeah! Is it also wonder-struck, laced with psychedelic beauty, triumphant in its wounded way? Yeah again. And by the end of it, the whole thing flames out in a burst of good old-fashioned rock and roll.” It sounds perfect, and I can’t wait for its release on 16th May. (ML)

Freak Slug – ‘Liquorice’
After being completely obsessed with their single ‘Spells’ last year, I’m very excited to hear that Manchester’s Freak Slug will be releasing the extended version of their debut album, I Blow Out Big Candles (But With A Cherry On Top), on 7th March, following the original release last November. This latest single only features on the expanded edition and offers jangly hooks, quirky energy and sugar sweet vocals in abundance. Catch Freak Slug live on their UK tour in May, including a headline show at Moth Club on the 22nd. (ML)

Housewife – ‘Work Song’
This single from queer Canadian artist Housewife is an infectious glitchy anthem that fizzes with relatable angst. It’s taken from her upcoming EP, Girl Of The Hour, which is set for release on 7th March via Submarine Cat Records. The EP is a buoyant reflection on identity, love and gender, all underscored by Housewife’s playful alt-pop sounds. (KC)

Supersaurus – ‘Fool For You’
We’ve been big fans of “non-binary fronted indie-pop girl band” Supersaurus since being introduced to their queer sad-pop bangers back in 2023, and new single ‘Fool For You’ offers another nostalgic heartfelt anthem. Of the track, the band explain: “If life was a 90s romcom, it would be the soundtrack. Every main character deserves their own epic soundtrack and ‘Fool For You’ serves as the perfect anthem for anyone who has ever been a fool for love and surrendered to its enchanting allure.” (ML)

Blonde Maze – ‘Never Dream’
I’ve made no secret of my love of New York artist Blonde Maze over the last decade of Get In Her Ears, and so it always bring me a lot of joy when she shares a new song. ‘Never Dream’ is her third collaboration with innovative electro artist Attom and oozes all the dreamy blissful vibes and soothing heartfelt charm that I’ve come to expect from her gorgeous creations. The single comes ahead of the release of her sophomore album, Second Sight, on 23rd May – and to say I’m excited about a brand new collection of her gloriously cathartic offerings is an understatement. (ML)

Shura ft. Cassandra Jenkins – ‘Richardson’
This is the second single from British songwriter Shura’s upcoming album, I Got Too Sad For My Friends, set for release on the 30th May. Featuring New York vocalist Cassandra Jenkins, ‘Richardson’ is a song about “walking, thinking, and trying to find comfort somewhere” guided by Shura’s soft voice and gentle beats. (KC)

Deerhoof – ‘Sparrow Sparrow’
One of the new ‘double B-sides’ from innovative dance-rock collective Deerhoof, ‘Sparrow Sparrow’ showcases their quirky fizzing energy and shimmering charm perfectly. The track is released alongside ‘Overrated Species Anyhow’, and the band are donating all proceeds to The Trevor Project – a non-profit suicide prevention organisation for the LGBTQ+ community. (ML)

Selma French – ‘Little Sisters and Friends’
The latest single from Norwegian artist Selma French, ‘Little Sisters and Friends’ offers a comforting ode to the younger people in our lives, and reflects on the need to care for and support them in their life’s journey. Flowing with lilting folk-strewn melodies and the rich sparkling grace of French’s vocals, it’s a gorgeous first taste of her upcoming second album, No Sign Of Rotten Leaves, which is set for release on 25th April.

Penelope Trappes – ‘A Requiem’
This is a beautiful sonic rumination from Brighton-based Australian producer and multi-instrumentalist Penelope Trappes. ‘A Requiem’ is the title track from her upcoming album, which is set for release on 4th April via One Little Independent. I’ve found each of Trappes’ singles and accompanying videos for this project to be really thought-provoking and evocative, and despite the album’s melancholy context, I feel like she has expressed something truly pure and beautiful about the shape-shifting nature of grief on this latest effort. Watch the accompanying visual, filmed by Agnes Haus, here. (KC)

Maud The Moth – ‘Exuviae’
Another exquisitely eccentric offering from Spanish-born, Scotland-based multi-instrumentalist Amaya Lopez-Carromero aka MAUD THE MOTH here. ‘Exuviae’ is lifted from her upcoming album, The Distaff, which is set for release on 21st February. The LP is an “ethereal but violent” amalgamation of autobiographical experiences, folklore, myth and poetry” which the artist explores in her own idiosyncratic manner. (KC)

Divide & Dissolve – ‘Provenance’
Multi-instrumentalist Takiaya Reed is back with her heavy instrumental project Divide and Dissolve and this gargantuan new single ‘Provenance’. Full of her trademark eerie saxophone sounds, crushing riffs and bruising beats, the single is the first offering from Divide and Dissolve’s new album, Insatiable, which is set for release on 18th April via Bella Union. Reed will also be returning to Supersonic Festival in Birmingham this year – which I am very excited about! Watch the accompanying video for ‘Provenance’ here. (KC)

Venamoris – ‘Truth’
Eclectic American duo Venamoris – formed of Dave and Paula Lombardo – have moved into darker sonic territory on their new album, To Cross Or To Burn, released today (28th Feb).

TTSSFU – ‘Studio 54’
I love the dark, cinematic allure of this track from Manchester artist Tasmin Nicole Stephens aka TTSSFU, who has just signed to Partisan Records. ‘Studio 54’ is the final track on her latest EP, Me, Jed and Andy, and it’s inspired by the tumultuous relationship between Andy Warhol and his partner Jed Johnson. I’m so glad this dropped into my GIHE inbox – a new personal favourite for sure. I love the accompanying video too, which you can watch here. (KC)

Skutterfly – ‘Changing Room’
Having won us over playing live for us at The Cavendish Arms last month, First Timers alumni Skutterfly have now shared their debut single. The first song they ever recorded together, ‘Changing Room’ fizzes with a sparkling energy as jangly hooks and ‘90s reminiscent grunge-tinged allure. They’re definitely ones to watch and we can’t wait to hear more!

GIHE faves HotWax have announced their debut album with the release of this blistering new single. ‘She’s Got A Problem’ will feature on their LP, Hot Shock, which is set for release on 7th March 2025 via Marathon Artists.

Jæd – ‘Bakkos’
Another knockout single from London based Irish-Puerto Rican musician Jæd. She played a GIHE gig for us in October last year supporting Pixie Cut Rhythm Orchestra at The Shacklewell Arms, and we were all blown away by her stage presence and dynamic vocals and guitar playing. Jæd will be releasing her debut album, I Loved The Gauntlet And There Was No Other Way, on 29th Nov via cult Irish label The Delphi Label. This track, ‘Bakkos’, features on the record and it’s a visceral imaginary tale of indulgence and self-judgement, set within the setting of a chaotic Bacchanalian court. (KC)

Clutter – ‘Jesus’
Recently signed to PNKSLM Recordings, Stockholm quartet Clutter have a sound that’s as cacophonous as their namesake. This track ‘Jesus’ is a noisy blend of their gritty riffs, swirling dual vocals and driving beats. The band will be releasing ‘Jesus’ along with their debut single ‘Holy Brother’ on a limited edition 7″ vinyl on 7th November, which you can pre-order here. (KC)

High. – ‘Catcher’
This latest single from New Jersey shoegazers High. is a glistening rumination on grief, which holds deep personal resonance for the band. It’s the second offering from their upcoming EP, Come Back Down, which is set for release on 24th January 2025 via New York indie label Kanine Records. I love their blend of effervescent vocals, heavy reverb and poetic lyricism. The track is accompanied by a music video, directed by bassist Bridget Bakie and starring drummer Jack Miller, which you can watch here. (KC)

Comic Sans – ‘Mr President’
Having completely blown us away with their immense energy and charisma playing live for us at New River Studios last week, London’s queer emo-punk ones to watch Comic Sans have now shared a raging new single. Propelled by a racing energy and angst-driven power, ‘Mr President’ showcases all there is to love about this exciting new band; a soaring punk anthem delivered with a fierce sense of urgency. Of the track, the band explain: “Mr President is an amalgamation of lyrics derived from grief, and an expression of frustration at the world, blended with band improvisation to create a song that expresses our individuality.” We highly recommend you catch Comic Sans live at the single launch for ‘Mr President’ on 28th October at The Windmill in Brixton – tickets here.

The Menstrual Cramps – ‘Class War’
A fierce rebuttal against trickle-down economics and the hold that the ruling classes have over society, ‘Class War’ is the latest single from GIHE faves, Bristol’s The Menstrual Cramps. Oozing their trademark seething energy alongside frenzied punk hooks and an immense empowering drive, it offers an rousing call to action to fight back; to join a union and hold those in power to account. Of the track, front person Emilia comments: “Workers rights are being taken away from us at an alarming rate, and the best way to combat this is with collective bargaining and activism…” Watch the new video for ‘Class War’ here. (ML)

Fightmilk – ‘Yearning and Pining’
Another one taken from the upcoming album from absolute faves Fightmilk, ‘Yearning and Pining’ offers a ridiculously catchy tongue-in-cheek love song. Exquisitely fusing together twinkling hooks and anthemic gritty energy with a lilting country twang, the track races with the angsty anticipation of a mega crush. Of the track, front person Lily comments: “(It’s) a two-minute country-punk biscuit about having the cosmic horn for someone. Being so lusty that you give yourself an asthma attack…” And there’s a gloriously DIY accompanying video that was filmed entirely on a doorbell cam. No Souvenirs, the upcoming new album from Fightmilk, is out 15th November via Alcopop! Records. Catch them live to celebrate – details here. (ML)

Daffodildos – ‘What’s Ur Excuse’
Having recently released their debut EP via Not Saints – a pioneering label committed to supporting artists in recovery from addiction – Brighton trans-punk trio Daffodildos have spent the year making a name for themselves, touring the country, delivering important social messages with their trademark playful attitude. Taken from the EP, ‘What’s UR Excuse’ is fuelled by fierce scuzzy hooks, offering a catchy punk anthem raging against the cruelty that society inflicts on animals, and capitalism’s reliance on the suffering of innocent animals for profit. Not My Cup Of Tea, the debut EP from Daffodildos, is out now. (ML)

Man/Woman/Chainsaw – ‘The Boss’
Lifted from their upcoming EP, Eazy Peazy, which is set for release on 7th November via Fat Possum Records, this track from London based art punks Man/Woman/Chainsaw is a grinding, unpredictable exploration of power dynamics. The band have fused electric violin, synths and guitars together to form their heaviest track yet. I remember Brixton trio Alien Chicks recommending Man/Woman/Chainsaw to us when they were guests on our Soho Radio show last year, and after hearing ‘The Boss’, I can see why! (KC)

Lobby – ‘folding out’
Featuring members from Goat Girl and leather.head, South London slowcore trio Lobby have shared a brand new single. Following last year’s ‘in the wall’, ‘folding out’ flows with a twinkling energy as honey-sweet vocals ripple over fuzzy musical layers and a stripped back raw emotion. Of the track, the band explain: ““It’s about the desire to watch the layers someone has built up, unfold, to reveal the core of who they are, and the unquestioning support needed for that process to occur.” (ML)

Queen Of Nothing – ‘How Does It Feel’
I’m so glad this debut single from independent artist Abi Crisp aka Queen Of Nothing dropped into my GIHE inbox. ‘How Does It Feel’ is taken from her soon-to-be-released EP, The Pull, which she recorded to tape at Middle Farm Studios with acclaimed producer Peter Miles (Torres, Orla Gartland and Dodie). I love her atmospheric guitar tones and her brooding vocals, which shift in volume throughout the track. (KC)

Labyrinthine Oceans – ‘Pinch’
A dark reflection on self autonomy and escaping societal expectations, ‘Pinch’ is the latest single from London/Newcastle dream rock band Labyrinthine Oceans. It’s taken from their upcoming second EP, home, which is set for release in the near future. The band blend grinding riffs, crashing percussion and melancholic vocals in attempt to confront the uncomfortable truths that underline vocalist Julia O’Neill’s lyrics, which give the track its heavy lullaby quality. (KC)

sweet93 – ‘what’s true?’
I love this dreamy offering from New York artist sweet93, fronted by elusive vocalist Chloe. I’m new to her blissed out brand of ambient shoegaze, but after hearing ‘what’s true?’ I’ll definitely be diving into her debut album, All The Same All OK, which she released back in 2021. (KC)

Mi.el – ‘Hers To Own’
The latest single from dream-pop duo Mi.el, ‘Hers To Own’ explores themes of change, personal growth and self-love, offering a sparkling empowering energy.

Friedberg – ‘Hardcore Workout Queen’
Described by Friedberg’s founding member Anna as an anthem for “the Champion of the slobs”, ‘Hardcore Workout Queen’ is the title track from the band’s upcoming album, which is set for release on 8th November. Juxtaposing upbeat indie-pop rhythms with lyrics about being unmotivated to excel at physical exercise, the track is a playful, relatable reflection on living the lifestyle that suits you – whether that means you’re smashing it in the gym or relaxing with snacks on the sofa. (KC)

God’s Mom – ‘Maddalena’
A new collaboration between Canadian artist Bria Salmena (FRIGS, Orville Peck) and producer/film-maker A.Matthews, God’s Mom create innovative soundscapes combining vocal traditions rooted in Salmena’s Italian heritage with glitchy electro-driven dancefloor beats. Celebrating the power and beauty of the community that the duo found in Toronto and Rome’s club scene, ‘Maddalena’ offers a cinematic cacophony that resonates with a driving energising allure. As It Was Given, the new album from God’s Mom, is out now – exclusively available on Nina. (ML)

foxgluvv – ‘i need to understand but i don’t’
Brighton based DIY pop artist foxgluvv has returned with this brand new single, their first since 2023. Inspired by their journey of self-discovery and the complexities of gender identity, foxgluvv explains that ‘i need to understand but i don’t’ is “more than just a song” to them, it’s their way of supporting their LGBTQIA+ listeners and reminding them not to panic if they haven’t got everything figured out just yet. It’s full of foxgluvv’s hyper-pop beats and catchy lyricism, making it an anxious-yet-euphoric anthem. (KC)

Susi Pagel – ‘Anything Like U’
Self-described as Belfast’s ‘pink pop princess’, Northern Irish artist Susi Pagel is set to release her debut EP very soon, which she worked on with local legend and GIHE fave Rocky O’Reilly.

Susi Pagel’s debut EP, can you hear me now?, is set for release next month. (ML)

Moniah – ‘Sweet Escape’

Breymer – ‘When I Get Through’
Set to release their new album, When I Get Through, later this month, Minnesota born artist Sarah Walk aka Breymer creates sweeping indie-pop anthems, oozing a raw emotion and stirring heartfelt splendour. Exploring their relationship with gender and identity, the album marks the first since they recently changed their artist name – from Sarah Walk to the more androgynous Breymer – to reflect how they feel about themselves after their recent top surgery. Interweaving lush layered vocals and a shimmering textured musicality as it reflects on a personal journey of self-discovery with a stark honesty, it’s a truly exquisite collection. Breymer is in the UK next month, playing dates in London and Brighton – details here. (ML)

Sunflower Thieves – ‘So Far So Good’
A poignant, relatable tune from Leeds based duo Sunflower Thieves here. Taken from their upcoming EP, Same Blood, set for release on 30th October 30th, ‘So Far So Good’ is a tender exploration on the very human need for connection and the often overwhelming feeling of our own insignificance in the grand scheme of things. Sunflower Thieves deliver these ruminations gently through their considered lyrics and soft acoustic guitar sounds. (KC)

Katie Malco ft. SOAK – ‘Babette’
Another disarming tune from Katie Malco, this time featuring Northern Irish songwriter SOAK. The pair toured the US together in 2023, which SOAK comically recalls as a time they navigated their way through North America with little more than their “drivers’ licences and delusion.” ‘Babette’ is inspired by Malco’s sense of being too much, or not enough, and how this inner conflict transpires into relationships and social situations. The track’s call-and-response style reflects how communication can break down between two people over time, with Malco and SOAK’s emotive vocals hitting a relatable nerve throughout. (KC)

jasmine.4.t – ‘Elephant’
The first UK signee to Phoebe Bridgers’ label Saddest Factory Records, Manchester based musician jasmine.4.t has announced her debut album, You Are The Morning, set for release on 17th January 2025, by sharing this track ‘Elephant’. Inspired by her memories of her first love after she came out as a trans woman, ‘Elephant’ is a moving reflection on how it feels to be friends with someone when you both know you want more. Produced by Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers and Lucy Dacus, jasmine’s sensitive lyricism, acoustic and electric instrumentation – plus the wonderful voices of the Trans Chorus of Los Angeles at the close of the track – all combine to create a passionate, buoyant exploration on the complexities and joy of finding your first queer love. (KC)

Miya Folick – ‘Alaska’
Following on from her previous single ‘La Da Da’, LA-based songwriter has shared another beautifully vulnerable offering here. ‘Alaska’ is inspired by her fear of potentially losing her relationship, but she pacifies this pain with the realisation that she would cope if that sadly became a reality. Her raw lyricism, emotive vocals and gentle instrumentation soothe these difficult thought processes, making ‘Alaska’ a tender and cathartic offering. (KC)

Heff VanSaint – ‘Weavers Fields’
Originally from Aberdeen, London based artist Heff VanSaint has just released her new EP Best Days Gone. Of the release, she explains: “It’s not as hopeless as the title suggests. I guess it’s a metaphor for where I am in my life. It starts off very misty eyed and full of longing for what’s gone and then through reflection regains a kind of optimism that is dogged in its hopefulness.” A lovely sentiment, and it is a really beautiful collection of tracks – and I think perhaps I have a particular soft spot for this one as it definitely has shades of The Boss, which is always a good thing in my books. (ML)

Waxahatchee – ‘Much Ado About Nothing’
The latest single from Katie Crutchfield – aka Waxhatchee – ‘Much Ado About Nothing’ flows with the lilting Americana twang and stirring raw emotion that I love so much.

Mark Trecka, Midwife – ‘Witch’s Hat’
Add this plaintive collaboration between Parisian sound artist Mark Trecka and Colorado multi-instrumentalist Midwife to your Halloween playlist NOW! It’s a haunting blend of the pair’s other-worldly vocals, moody electronics and twitchy percussion, which Trecka hopes will resonate with those who are “dreaming and celebrating the other side in this thinning veil season.” I love it. (KC)

Joh Chase ft. Brittany Ann Tranbaugh and Natalie Carol – ‘Gossamer Thread’
The debut collaborative single from LA based songwriter Joh Chase, Brittany Ann Tranbaugh and Valley Queen’s Natalie Carol, ‘Gossamer Thread’ offers a stirring slice of Americana reflecting on themes of interconnectedness, fragility and resilience.
