It is a typical particle in bands that instrumentalists come up with their own parts during the rehearsal or recording process. The skill involved in this is often overlooked. The Goldsmiths-educated (UK, London) guitarist, bassist, composer, and songwriter Prokhor Kuznetsov is an excellent example of this unique skill.

"Next Time" is part of Oulton's album 'Alexithymia', released today, and it perfectly reflects Quinn's artistry. With the slow, patient lead-up to the intense chorus, the unique sound of Quinn's music echoes through his song.

London-based electronic Pop singer-songwriter Sofi Vonn recently released her debut EP 'That Was A Close Call' in December of last year. Her latest song, "Ghost", dropped in February of this year, and today we are delighted to premiere its music video.

As with every premiere we have here on IndieWavves, we try and bring you the best new music as early as possible.

Gone Gone Beyond calls themselves future folk. Their upcoming album 2030 (due June 16) most definitely reflects how these multi-instrumentalists blend various styles - from folk and jazz to electronic and psychedelic. One could describe folk-soul-rockers Gone Gone Beyond as a supergroup of sorts.

Los Angeles-based Forest Blakk grew up in Montreal, Canada, and spent time living in Florida and Jamaica as well, escaping from a troubled home life by picking up the guitar his grandmother gave him at fifteen. At 21, he moved to Calgary, joining a band that would go on to JUNO-nominated.

Folk-pop singer-songwriter Anton Joseph is a twenty-six-year-old talent whose story is full of ups and downs. Born in Romania, Anton was adopted and grew up in Ireland and is now based in Germany. He's a gypsy, a musician of the world really, having appeared in several talent competitions.

The country ballad is, in a way, the genre's bread and butter, and as much as the party songs are entertaining, the ballads can sometimes hit you harder. Take, for one, the emerging country artist Parker Graye's "Before You Leave".

When you're watching a music video by an artist you love, have you ever thought about who directed the music video? It's okay to admit that you probably haven't (I'm guilty of this myself).
