Take advantage of this week’s incredible music selection to chase away the Monday blues. Listen to some recently released songs as you wait for some this week. The following is a list by Adam Humphrey of recent music releases for the week!
HOLLY HENDERSON – releases fuzzy new psych-pop single “The Planes”
Holly Henderson really shows her creativity here in her new single, The Planes, as it demonstrates that she’s more than just your average singer-songwriter. Apart from anything, it’s fitting in how the structural melody of the song pays homage to the 70’s rock era.
