our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Grapes” from Zara Smile! ✨

we’ve covered Zara’s music a bunch in the past, and we’re always so in awe of their down-to-earth, relatable and honest songwriting style, conveying real raw emotion effortless within their lyrics, backed by a gorgeous soundscape of instrumentation that perfectly compliments their music. 🤝

this song is no different, feeling delicate and intimate with a lovely flow behind it, with all instrumentation working in perfect unison to create a dreamy, ethereal atmosphere, which provides a beautiful backdrop to their lyrics, conveyed so well with powerful, dynamic and intricate delivery – we’re huge fans of the range of instruments here, which work so well with one another to create a fantastic track. 🌙

you can find the track on all streaming platforms, taken from their latest EP “Listen!” – and you can support it directly on Bandcamp at https://zarasmile.bandcamp.com/album/listen🎧

Categories artist, just the crust, local scene, new music, review, videoLeave a Comment on Just The Crust 28/09/26: Sophie & The Silhouettes – Parking Fines 🎶

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Parking Fines” from Sophie & The Silhouettes! 🔈

their first new release in three years, they’ve got a strong run of tracks already under their belt, and with a bunch of recent gigs under their belt plus a headline on the horizon, they’re out to make a huge return on the Manchester scene 🌠

this new single sounds great, with unrelenting punky energy right from the get-go, huge driving rhythm that pushes the track forward effortlessly, anthemic singalong choruses and no-nonsense, direct songwriting, it’s both an upbeat tune and an inner retrospection upon desire and needs. it’s well worth a listen 💥

you can find the track on all streaming platforms, or you can support it directly on Bandcamp at https://sophieandthesilhouettes.bandcamp.com/album/parking-fines 🎧
