WONGIE INDIE FOLK SONG OF THE WEEK: billie marten - milk & honey
billie marten - milk & honey
the gentle assured sound of newbie singer/songwriter folk gal billie marten has been on my radar for a few months, but it's her latest single 'milk & honey' that cements my appreciation of this definite one to watch for 2016. at just 18 years old, i'd say the prospects are pretty darn good so far!

WONGIE INDIE FOLK SONG OF THE WEEK: the lumineers - ophelia
the lumineers - ophelia
taken from their upcoming 2nd album 'cleopatra', the lumineers took a good 6 months to craft the sound of their new album since the worldwide success of their 2012 debut. it's a lovely new start don't you think?

WONGIE INDIE FOLK SONG OF THE WEEK: dotan - home
dotan - home
currently #1 in his native netherlands, dutch singer/songwriter dotan harpenau is getting some serious buzz around the region with his gentle singalong anthem (though please ignore the fact that it takes a good minute before you get to hear anything in this video). a quiet gem, this.

INDIE MIX: john grant & conor o'brien - glacier / gmf
john grant & conor o'brien - glacier
i love the baritone voice of queer folkster john grant (and i'm not the only one since he got nominated for best international male artist this year at the brit awards), throw in his brilliant lyrics and you quickly understand why he's caused quite a swoon from fans this past year with his wonderful album 'pale green ghosts'. it's taken me awhile to appreciate his genius, but better late than never right?
wanna hear more, check out one of my fave songs from last year in the form of GMF. just brilliant!
