Hailing from Dallas within the USA is colby!, and simply late final month noticed the artist drop their beautiful new EP, “Lifeless Giveaway”. Since breaking onto the scene earlier on within the yr the Texas-based singer-songwriter has gone on to recover from 150k streams, which is such an achievement by anybody, not to mention an artist who’s solely been dropping tunes since Could thirty first of 2024!
The EP is a set of tunes colby! has been releasing since late Could and what we now have on supply is much less of an EP however extra of a teaser of what is to come back, and naturally a giant “hey” to the report labels!
The primary two tracks comprise of the upbeat pop anthem “Lifeless Giveaway” which focuses quite a bit on her vocal vary, blended in with a scrumptious quantity of pop-leaning guitar tones and stompable beats. “Gone To Mattress” is colby! at her most interesting in the case of vocals, because it feels such as you’re listening to a competition headline act because it’s that easy. Musically this has a beautiful RnB beat to it with some quirky alt-pop tones which provides you some Glass Animals-type sounds.
The centrepiece of the EP is “Break Me Twice”, a a lot slower track in comparison with the primary two, however as soon as once more you get these quirky alt-pop guitar tones wallowing round your ears which definitely will convey you from an off-the-cuff listener to a fan!
The ultimate two tracks are comprised of the most recent track and her best-performing one, the previous is “Transferring On” which to me is her smoothest and darkest, with sounds on right here sounding nearly like a Billie Eilish tune – however as soon as once more with these alt-pop guitar loops. Closing all of it off is “Doing What I Can”, by far her most essential observe to this point but as that is how lots of people get into her sounds, and I can simply see why too!
