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!!!) ☀️
