New Music Friday: 9/6/2024

Editors Note: After a summer away, I am back, dear readers, for New Music Friday! If you didn't keep up with me on my Instagram (@barbuddiespod wink, wink), I went to summer camp! It was a lot of fun, but I'm so glad to be back to curating music for the rest of the year! As the legend, Philip Defranco would say...

COMETS - Adam Paddock

Adam Paddock is an alt-pop, four-piece based in Columbus, OH. The intersection between energetic pop & intimate singer-songwriter is where their diverse discography feels right at home. Double-take-worthy horn arrangements married to unassuming, soaring vocals driven by familiar, acoustic instrumentation is the formula; power-packed, community-focused live shows are the result. People are the point. As strong of an entrance as one can dream to make, Adam Paddock burst into the Ohio scene in the fall of 2020.

Members: Adam Paddock (vocals, acoustic guitar, keys), Adrian Oliver (drums, production manager), Max Lew (electric guitar, production, vocals), Caelan Quigley (trumpet, keys)

Escaper - Sarah Kinsley

New York-based Sarah Kinsley’s music evokes all the feelings. A schooled but intuitive musician/singer/producer, she expresses and explores doubts and dreams in her captivating and sometimes ironic alt-pop songs. Distinctive and atmospheric she delves into both the intimate and the expansive, the introspective and the cinematic. Narratively driven, there’s a wholesome, dreamlike quality to her lyrics, whilst musically it runs the gamut from a hazy, alluring dream-pop to the more flamboyant and adventurous leftfield pop too.

It’s a sound that has already found her a veritable army of fans all over the globe from her introductory EP's The King (2021) and Cypress (2022) to the stark and vulnerable one-off, 'The Giver' and the beguiling Ascension EP (2023), Sarah Kinsley has quickly and efficiently become a go-to for deliciously warm, lush and moreish sounds, and arguably pop’s most interesting and irresistible new voice.
