MorMor: “Waiting on the Warmth”

By: Jack Anderson

At only twenty six years of age, Toronto producer, pianist and singer Seth Nyquist is already on another plain of introspection. Performing now as MorMor, Nyquist was raised with influences ranging from Nirvana to Wu-Tang Clan to “Strawberry Fields Forever”, yet his solo musical style comes off more like a midway point between Radiohead and Frank Ocean.

MorMor’s debut EP Heaven’s Only Wishful drops this Friday, five songs showcasing Nyquist’s technical perfection on vocals and piano as well as his lyrical life time of mental exploration. Nyquist is certainly comfortable living entirely in his own mind, that said he’s kind enough to share the penultimate track on Heaven’s Only Wishful, “Waiting on the Warmth“.

Wabi Sabi and the Sweet Littles: “Nile Walk”

Donnel McLohon: “Serenata”

Austin’s Donnel McLohon, founder of the storytelling blog the Austin Bluebonnet, has it down when it comes to great singer-songwriter tunes knotched-up with soft, catchy hooks, but on his debut EP You Were Adored, he held some space to push his boundaries, write on pure instinct, and let the music flow. That track is “Serenata,” […]

Jane Ellen Bryant: “My Corner of the World”

When I think of Jane Ellen Bryant, the first thing that comes to mind is her vocal tool box. She’s not just a great singer; the control she has over her voice and the tricks she’s able to do with it are show stopping. She’s shows off this mastery in both the dance pop duo […]

From the hockey rink of the University of Utah to the mean streets of New York City comes Persona 749.

Maddy Kirgo: “Spare”

New Orleans’s Maddy Kirgo writes music not only akin to the eclectic, all-embracing attitude of the Big Easy, but also to the sounds currently pouring out of its venues, or in her case, the buskers on the corner. To that end, her sounds simultaneously evokes the California country rock sounds of the nudie suit era […]

MIEN: “Evil People” (Live In Studio 1A)

We all know that when an artist is featured on a song, it’s likely that they recorded it remote and sent the track to the main artist. But how does it work when you’re a quartet and only 2 of y’all live in the same place? To ask the members of Austin experimental psych band […]
