Seeking: Review, Feature

Style: Indie Pop

It’s great when feelings of nostalgia and discovering something fresh can sit comfortably side by side. Such is the case with Caitlin Mahoney, whose “Feelin’ Free” recalls late ‘80s to mid ‘90s electro-pop, while not sounding the slightest bit stale.

That’s a fine balance, but the fact that the song is so memorable and the delivery is so joyous means that the tune is undeniable. “Subway Cars,” on the other hand, sounds very now. It’s the sort of sweet, authentic indie pop that fans of Lana Del Rey and even Billie Eilish would dig. Mahoney’s voice is gorgeous and comforting, and she clearly know how to construct a song.
