Holigay 2025

This holiday season has been a quiet one. Not much happening on the music front. Just a handful of singles from some of my newest divas.

The songs on Strange Trip Ahead are propelling Mariel forward while reflecting back on her past, deciding what will serve her and…

Lindsay Ell’s Fence Sitter EP

It’s been a year since Lindsay Ell released her Love Myself EP. Her newest, Fence Sitter, is thankfully continuing on her pop journey. Four songs have visualizers and the other a lyric video.

Abigail Osborn’s I Don’t Need To Know How This Ends

Well it’s that time of year again, time for another Abigail Osborn release. However, this time it’s finally a full-blown album instead of her annual EPs. I Don’t Need To Know How This Ends’ eleven tracks all have Abigail’s emotionally exposed co-written lyrics, but this time the music is more matured and subdued. Lately, I’m…
