SINGLES
Cat Burns | "Cheater"
In her latest single, British pop singer Cat Burns fires back at some of the more dishonest uses of social media. "Two boys messaged me on the same night, even though on their social media it was obvious they had �significant others�," she explained. "I was initially hurt for both me and the girls because of the disrespect, this hurt then turned into anger."

FINNEAS | "Claudia"
FINNEAS wrote his latest single for his girlfriend. It's heartfelt but not sappy, full of texture and an honest take on love at first sight.

Casey Lowry | "Roam"
Casey Lowry spent the last year perfecting his signature sound, and he shows off all that hard work on his latest single. "Roam is a song about freedom. Everyone experiences that differently, but for me it�s being sat on a random beach somewhere in the world with a beer in my hand," he said. "I wrote this song to encourage others to be bold enough to take the steps they need to in order to find their own freedom.�"

VIDEOS
Ady Suleiman | Strange Roses

Ady Suleiman's latest track is raw and candid, and the accompanying video plays up just that. "'Strange Roses' is about a relationship that is falling apart. The romance within the relationship feels disingenuous, analogised as 'roses feel strange,' he noted. "There is however a plea for hope that there is a way out of the 'groundhog' scenario that they seem to be stuck in."

Circa Waves | Times Won't Change Me
Circa Waves - Times Won't Change Me (Official Video)www.youtube.com
For the single off their third album, Circa Waves tried something a bit different: a gospel led, piano heavy anthem. "There's a thing with bands being scared of that big epic song, but on your third album, you can afford to be more open," said singer Kieran Shudall. "The pop will not hurt you, it'll set you free!"

Moving Panoramas | In Two
Breezy indie rock has never sounded so… Texas. The sophomore album from Austin's Moving Panoramas is light, dreamy, and expansive--like a wide open plain.
