Just The Crust 05/04/21: Natasha Nicole – Alright In The End ☀️

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the amazing new single from Natasha Nicole, “Alright In The End”! 😊

blending influences from her past ventures in indie and rock bands, to a more softer, acoustic sound – we really rate this song, such a heavenly feel to it and super personal lyricism! for fans of Laura Marling, Adult Mom and Angel Olsen🍷

“Alright In The End” is a fantastic debut single, written from a perspective looking at the pandemic and all that’s going on in the world and still maintaining a positive stance, even in light of it all. definitely worth a listen!! 🪐

head on over to Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/artist/7bVnTLFjl411AEB4e9PbVv to go and check the song out in full – we can’t wait to hear even more from Natasha in the future! ✊

(ps, if you head over to Bandcamp at https://grrrlgroannn.bandcamp.com/album/a-grrrl-compilation this song is part of a super lovely compilation/zine from Grrrlgroannn!!!) ☀️

you can find ALL of these releases over on our Bandcamp, including music from Adam Carpenter Music michael webster and even the brand new single “Red Stripe” from Olivia Browse (which if you preorder today, you’ll get automatically next Friday on release!) 😊

every first Friday of the month, Bandcamp waive their fees to help musicians throughout the pandemic and therefore all proceeds and income will go directly to the artists! 😎

you can find all of this music (and, actually, even more!) over at www.breadrecords.bandcamp.com! 🥰 go and check it out and support independent artists! 🍞

Pre-order “Red Stripe” over on Bandcamp now! ☀️

you can pre-order Olivia Browse‘s new single “Red Stripe” over on Bandcamp now, guys! 😎

for the tiny lil price of a quid you can have the tune straight to your Bandcamp and able to download it on the 9th April – what a steal. any pre-orders also are sent off as sales to the charts on the release date, meaning that you could directly help Olivia get her song in the charts!! 🤟

how amazing would it be for us to get a chart placement with this single. Olivia has worked so hard over the last year putting out music and you all know how talented she is! 🥰 head over to https://oliviabrowse.bandcamp.com/releases to go and buy it now! (literally not even half of the price of a coffee!) 🍞
