Ten great singles released in July 2018

We are so inspired after spending yesterday working with the amazing artists at The Decemberists’ Travelers Rest Festival in Missoula, Montana.  We discovered some amazing talent we had not previously known about, like indie band Lenore and indie artists Waxahatchee and Matt the Electrician.

Here are ten great singles we didn’t have room to share this month in our Monday Mashup article.  We hope they inspire you as they have inspired us.

The first single comes from an artist who has been featured several times before, and continues to impress us.  Here’s “Keep On” by the amazing guitarist Jackie Venson.

Next up is a pair of singles from Glasgow-based disco duo Free Love (formerly Happy Meals).  The featured single is “Pushing too Hard,” which we really love, as well as a bonus track “July.”  Check out their vibe.

Our third single is from a band we featured in June.  “Liars and Thieves” is the latest from Becoming Bristol, and it confirms our belief in the future of the band.  Let us know what you think.

Our fourth single is “Chapel of Pines” from the forthcoming new album by Waxahatchee, who we fell in love with after her powerful performance at yesterday’s Festival.  We think she will have your devotion too after you hear this song.

Next up is “Speaking Fire,” a powerful new song from Samsaruh.  We think this one will power you into the next week.  Enjoy!

We start our second five singles with the title track from the new EP by Dead Ceremony.  Check out “Heartache.”

Our seventh single is from R&B/Soul artist Conrad the Third.  Chill out to the amazing sound of “Get you Alone.”

Single number eight is a throw-back to the tender ballads of the 70’s.  Check out “Lazy Love” from debut artist Johnny Payne.

Next up is the debut single from the new album by Here are the Lions.  Check out “Unsatisfied.”  We love the upbeat and the potential for radio airplay for this group.

Our final single today comes from Matthew Perryman Jones, and we simply love it.  We’ll close for this edition with “Anything Goes.”
