With this rainy weather outside, melancholic r&b/bedroom pop feels like the most appropriate soundtrack.

Welcoming Bethannie Hare, a London-based singer & songwriter who brings her debut single "Minds Under My Skin". The heart-breaking tune is inspired by true events but is also very relatable - it touches on the topics of self-acceptance & the effect of the Internet era on our self-esteem.

She explains, "The song is all about not being happy with yourself, which I think social media plays a big role in. People constantly compare themselves to edited, filtered images, often feeling inferior and unhappy as a result."

Bethannie pours her heart with impressive vocals, ranging from quiet & accepting to powerful & empowering, paired with amazing guitars, gentle keys & driving drums. The song was recorded with a live band & analogue equipment at the Crystal Ship Studios in Sheffield & has a beyond-gorgeous music video:
