Izellah Shines With “Glow”

Transitioning from the world of musical theatre isn’t easy, but young Gold Coast talent Izellah shows she’s got what it takes with her latest single “Glow.” In 2016 she caught Australia’s attention as one of the plucky young girls playing the title role in Tim Minchin’s musical adaptation of Matilda. Now she shows she’s got some serious pop skills.

Izellah’s voice is undeniable, pure and compelling. She’s also clearly a learned a lot from time in the United States last year working with producers and writers for Kylie Minogue, Celine Dion, and Dua Lipa. This track is super catchy and commercial, but it’s also got an individuality about it that sets her apart.

With tracks like “Glow” in her arsenal, I predict we’ll hear a lot more about Izellah in 2020.

Amanda Merdzan Back with New Single “Glow”

So many different musicians have crossed my path since I started this music blog. Many of them I forget about if I don’t hear from them for a while, but the best stay with me. One of those artists is Amanda Merdzan. I still remember how I felt listening to her debut album years ago, and I’ve loved listening to her music evolve from minimalist folk to lush electronic music. Throughout it all, the heart in every one of her songs has kept me coming back for more.

Amanda’s moved to London since the last time we heard from her, and it seems the change is doing her good. While she admittedly misses the sunshine, her latest single “Glow” may be her most accomplished yet.

This is the latest single from Amanda’s forthcoming EP Commands. I can’t wait to hear it!
