0:00 New Indie Folk April 2025
0:10 The Franklin Electric - How You Holding On
This song is about checking in on the ones we love to see how they’re doing as this world can be a bit of a dark place at times and everyone needs a little light.
02:55 SYML - Heavy Hearts
05:49 Jordan Hart - Foolhardy
Here's to celebrating the good times, fighting the good fight to grow with each other during the hard times and holding forgiveness for the fact that to be human is to be just a little bit foolhardy.
09:44 Rosie H Sullivan - Porcupine
I learned about the ‘Porcupine Theory’ from my dad. It comes from a famous philosopher, Arthur Schopenhauer. He would tell us that falling in love is like being a porcupine—sometimes, the closer you get to someone, the greater the risk of hurting each other with your figurative spikes. The dilemma, then, is: do you stay closed off to love and intimacy to avoid that risk, or do you open yourself up, accepting that not everything is in your control, in order to experience love, warmth, and connection?
12:49 Michael Lane - Heaven Is a Place on Earth

15:48 Children of Indigo - Sailor
At one time or another, we have all felt lost and overwhelmed in life. Feeling like we haven't accomplished enough or simply aren't enough. Sailor is about letting go of this feeling and having faith that ''this too shall pass''.
19:25 Alison Martino - Back Here
Back Here is a song about losing track of time – One day you wake up, and life is different. It’s a reflection of genuinely happy memories from my past, shared with people who are major parts of me that just aren’t there anymore.
22:30 Tommy Ashby - Sophie
This song is about friendships where you know that no matter how long has passed you can fall into easy conversation and when the chips are down they are going to be there.
25:26 Luna Keller & Genesis Ritchot - Paper Dreaming
This song is about two characters in school daydreaming about a future together. It's a little love song told through the lense of the innocence of that first love.
29:27 Tiz McNamara - Every Story
