MiddleKid: by Geoffrey Lewis is a 6-track EP that explores the story of grief. The style is pleasant on the ears, blending a range of influences that make it accessible to a wide audience. Listeners who enjoy pop-rock like The Knack, folk-influenced acts such as The Lumineers or Jason Isbell, and contemporary ballads in the vein of Nickel Creek will find something to love here. The music and production are high-quality, and the emotional rawness of the lyrics has the power to resonate deeply.

Laura Mock’s home//body is a stunning blend of indie folk, atmospheric pop, and poetic storytelling. Through cinematic production and introspective lyrics, the EP explores themes of home and self-discovery. Tracks on the EP evoke Maine’s coastal landscapes while blending ethereal vocals and orchestral elements—similar to Phoebe Bridgers, Fleet Foxes, Florence + The Machine, and Bon Iver.

Following up from her October debut “you, again,” Sarah Serkosky comes back strong with her second single, “Desperation,” a cathartic ballad for those in early stages of heartbreak.
