You can also check out more videos on Dear Gravity’s YouTube page.
Although this technically dropped on the last day of January, I had published my January Wrap at that time. So if you haven’t already, check out the video for King Louie, a track by IMRSQD off his 2021 album Encantado.
On The Horizon
Syke Peterson announced a Kickstarter for her upcoming debut album on Instagram. The singer-songwriter has released several singles in the past, including an EP titled Searching For Us in 2020. See her page for more:
Wild Earth is working on a new album titled Weary Hymns Along The Way. They launched an Indiegogo campaign for funds that ended sometime on February 16th. I can’t wait for the release of their third album.
Indie musician Beach Chapel also launched a GoFundMe towards the release of a new EP sometime in 2022. It’s still ongoing and you can support him by clicking the link here.
That's all for today.
As promised, here’s the Monthly Wrap Playlist updated for February.
Until next time.
Keeping listening!
