The days are finally getting longer, it’s true, and as the mercury in our thermometers starts to rise incrementally each day, we see a tonal shift in the type of music we feel like listening to, with the brooding musical atmospheres being set aside for a more whimsical persuasion. Enter brand-new Oakland singer-songwriter Hazel English and her latest single, “Never Going Home”. The playful pop sensibilities that exude from each musical bar in the track are enthralling and refuse to cease throughout the entirety of the timely springtime gem. With fellow Oakland artist Day Wave also killing it of late, it seems that the indie-pop scene is continuing to flourish in the Californian city. It is an enabling environment for any young artist, surely, and Hazel English is one that we are excited to keep a close eye on. We suggest you do the same.
