FRAN LUSTY’s “Seasalt” Paints a Poignant Ode of Melodic Metaphors
In an enchanting fusion of introspective folk melodies and poignant tales of longing and belonging, FRAN LUSTY’s latest single, “Seasalt,” invites listeners on a soul-stirring journey through the tangled emotions of hope and displacement. This captivating folk gem, the fourth track from her EP, is more than just music; it’s an emotional canvas upon which LUSTY masterfully paints the struggle between urban confinement and wild yearning with each delicate note.
Drawing inspiration from a heartrending David Attenborough narrative, “Seasalt” immerses us in the plight of newly hatched sea turtles, tragically drawn towards the city’s glimmering lights instead of the moonlit sea. LUSTY metaphorically weaves this poignant tale into our human experience, capturing the sensation of being trapped in a concrete jungle while the call of the untamed echoes within. The song is a sonic masterpiece that resonates with waves crashing like the ebb and flow of tides and children’s laughter on the shore, cleverly juxtaposing these sounds with the suffocating cityscape.
FRAN LUSTY, hailing from Cambridge with Norwegian roots, infuses her indie-folk compositions with an ethereal and transformative dreamlike quality. Her musical journey began with “Ladybird” in 2021, a single that unexpectedly found its wings on BBC Introducing and propelled her into the spotlight. “Seasalt” is a testament to her growth as an artist, showcasing her ability to create emotionally charged narratives that transcend the bounds of music.
Having migrated to London to immerse herself in the indie-folk scene, LUSTY navigates the city’s intimate venues, delivering weekly performances that have left an indelible mark on London’s musical tapestry. Her performances at renowned locales like The Water Rats, Folklore Hoxton, and Blues Kitchen are a testament to her unwavering dedication and deep connection to her craft and the audience.
In “Seasalt,” FRAN LUSTY’s mellifluous vocals and evocative lyrics intertwine with the rich tapestry of folk influences. Her songwriting prowess allows listeners to journey through emotions, grappling with the tension between urban reality and the call of the wild. This single is a testament to the power of music to evoke deep feelings that linger, a resonant echo of the human soul’s eternal quest beyond mere words. As we eagerly await the full EP release, “Seasalt” stands as an enchanting harbinger of the musical depth and narrative complexity that FRAN LUSTY will bring to our ears. A perfect addition to the genre’s playlist!

Michael Soul hides from being open with new release “Hiding”
Michael Soul’s new single, “Hiding,” is a dark, hypnotic electronic track that takes listeners to a private place in their minds where they are alone, thinking, and feeling upset. “Hiding” was written when the author was very lonely. Michael Soul turns days of being alone, when silence seemed to last forever, and connection seemed impossible, into an immersive sound.
Andrea Mastroiacovo’s polished work makes the single even better, clarifying and deepening the song’s dark mood. The production carefully reflects that emotional weight with simple textures and dark electronic sounds that make you feel like you’re alone with your thoughts.
“Hiding” is a song about feeling alone, scared, and wanting to hide from being open. It asks questions that are quiet but sharp, like why do we hide what we feel? How does fear ruin love? And can we stop going in circles of misunderstanding and emotional distance? These echoes linger long after the track ends, prolonging the sound.
