2014 Round Up: Favourite EP's

Anavae

Parallel Dimensions

Favourite: Hang Man

Mesmerising re-workings of already beautiful songs is top of this list. There's no repetitiveness just pure creative imagination. Becca's vocals sound so delicate and assertive all at the same time and the quiet layers of synths and keys whirl with her stunning voice, a perfect complementary combination. A new side, new life is brought to these songs I wouldn't mind hearing a parallel version of everything if Becca and Jamie are in charge.

Versa

Neon

Favourite: Wanderlust

A short three songs long and i've spent the rest of the year just dying for more music from this cosmic duo. Sierra hits the nail on the head lyrically, her vocals are so lush and Blake is basically the king of synths. 

Echosmith

Acoustic Dreams

Favourite: Terminal

I am a sucker for anything acoustic. I can't help it. Plus a previously unheard track 'Terminal'  makes an appearance and its quite possibly the best song they've ever written.

Sinclair

Sweet Talk

Favourite: The World Is Ours

Sinclair has got to be my favourite find of the year so please, please go and check her out.

Four Year Strong

Go Down In History

Favourite: Living Proof Of A Stubborn Youth

Long time favourites of mine returned with a fiery pop-punk EP that made me wanna get up and take over the world... or something. New album soon please. This stuff is addicting.
