Give Unicorns at Heart a Listen

The end of the year is list time, so new tunes are pushed back, and I’m just out here creeping on the Internet trying to find some gems. That’s how I stumbled upon Unicorns at Heart…a bedroom pop outfit hailing from California. They just dropped a self-titled cassette via Hidden Bay last week, and I can’t stop playing “Stay.” It has this natural softness, almost like an Elliott Smith vibe, wrapped in a more modern guitar sound that fits the dreamier landscape. The whole collection is an intimate affair, allowing you to indulge your pop fancy as you see fit; it’s just you and your speakers and these Unicorns at Heart.

Oscar Keeps On Keepin’ On

11406332_984848138191985_633096535453456620_oAs we approach the June 23rd release date of Oscar‘s debut EP, Beautiful Words, more tracks have surfaced from that forthcoming album. I’ve shared with you two of these songs already, but why not give you a chance to fall in love with this Londoner one more time with this latest track, “Stay.” This song still features the same deep-set and rich vocals from the gentleman, but it also is more rooted and almost hinges on a semi-du wop base. It’s a simple little pop track, but also still a pretty good example as to why you need to keep Oscar on your radar: he can do playful indie rock like “Daffodil Days,” but also has a softer pop side that we hear here.
