Ahead of a handful of dates supporting Montaigne on tour, Sydney singer-songwriter Sophie Lowe has released another song taken from her upcoming EP, out in November.

Rumours had launched Fleetwood Mac to the eye-watering heights of rock music’s mega-league, despite the increasingly strained relationships between the five band members, and expectation for its follow up had reached fever pitch.

Oh, Be Clever are a bit of a new discovery for us. Not their fault, more ours. Turns out the Salt Lake City duo, Brittney Shields and Cory Scott Layton make these rather lovely slices of electronic pop.

After the debut from Harper made the top slot in my Top 10 EP’s of 2014 list, Harper has returned with brand new music and an incredibly captivating music video to go with it.
