Just The Crust 13/10/25: Natalie Holmes – Alone Time πŸŽΆ

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Alone Time” from Natalie Holmes! 🎡

the final single from her upcoming album out next week, it sounds fantastic – we reviewed her previous single “To Be A Woman” and her songwriting talent is incredible, we love her ability to convey such complex emotions and feelings through real and down-to-earth lyricism ✍️

this single sounds so lovely, with a gorgeous synth-pop element to it, it flows superbly and effortlessly, and creates a great lo-fi atmosphere that matches the tone of the lyricism expertly, allowing the listener to really connect with the story, it’s a really honest and personal track that sounds incredible. 🀝 we can’t wait to hear the full album!

you can find the track on all streaming platforms, and there’s a full music video on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9W8zLnW2m8 – well worth a watch! 🎧

Just The Crust 06/10/25: County Pilots – Give A Little Love πŸŽΆ

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Give A Little Love” by County Pilots 🎢

the Preston-based retro-pop outfit have been making waves on the scene, having released a bunch of great singles over the past few years, and performing a load across the North West πŸ‘Š

we’ve been fans of their music for a good while now, with an unmistakable feel-good vibe behind the tunes, and this new single is a classic example of their sound! with a groovy, summer-y guitar riff forming the basis of the track, there’s a real tight rhythm section that grounds the tune superbly, and you can hear a bunch of influences in there, ranging from indie-rock to folk to country. it’s a great listen with a proper singalong feel to it, and expert lyricism that paints a real picture – a fantastic new single from them! β˜€οΈ

you can find the track on all streaming platforms, including on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/album/1bIemqTFYS9JjCEJJ7tJ4X – well worth checking out 🎧
