For this week’s Indie Pick, we’re writing about Sagong. Sagong is a Korean singer-songwriter who had his official debut with the EP ‘A Careless Fellow’. He’s not under any record label, he’s doing all of it himself though he did give licensing rights to Mirrorball Music. The title track with the same name feels quite ‘summer in a tropical location ...
We’re back with a new Indie Pick and this time I really wanted to feature the wonderful R&B singer KREAM. This guy has some amazing vocals and his lyrics are heartfelt and feel very poetic. The first song that put KREAM on my radar was the song ‘Talking To The Moon’ that was on his EP with the same name in ...

It won’t stop us ...
