I’ve been waiting for this 2021 record to be released ever since I heard the first single. And, based on the additional songs that have come out in the interim, this has quickly become one of my favorite albums of the year, despite not having heard the full release. But, by the time you read this, the record will have officially dropped. June’s style is all over the place, including blues, Americana, singer-songwriter, folk, soul and even dream pop. She has a very distinctive voice that serves her well throughout these various genres. Knowing that there’s more for me to hear, these are the tracks I really like so far:  ‘Stay,’ ‘You And I,’ ‘Call Me A Fool’ and ‘Why The Bright Stars Glow.’
