SADURN

Intimacy is manifested in every moment of Radiator, the debut album from Philadelphia’s Sadurn. This feeling of closeness, of being able to lend your every sense to one’s confessions of internal conflict, has carried over from the band’s origins as the solo bedroom-folk project of frontperson Genevieve DeGroot.

Now emerging as a four-piece with the addition of members Jon Cox, Tabitha Ahnert, and Amelia Swain, Sadurn delivers emotive indie rock on Radiator that explores the struggles and eventual beauty of grappling with multiple emotional realities, particularly when it comes to relationships. The album is a fleeting, impactful glimpse at one’s whole heart, and its sweeping, special nature is evident from the moment it opens.

MALI VELASQUEZ

When Nashville-based singer-songwriter Mali Velasquez traded her Texas panhandle home for the verdant foothills of Tennessee, she did so with a newfound perspective that mirrored her environment, culminating in the lushly raw edge of her folk-rooted indie rock. Wistfully openhearted and incisive, Velasquez tips the fulcrum between reflection and remedy with melody-forward unction and lyrical tenderness. Her forthcoming debut, I’m Green, is a perennial introspection into the wild animal of young adulthood and the renewing realization that the person we’re most often seeking permission from, crucially, is ourselves.
