Jenna Nicholls

Add Date: August 2 

Artist: Jenna Nicholls 

Album: The Blooming Hour 

Label: Self-released 

Genre: Indie pop

Comments: Born and raised in Pittsburgh, singer/songwriter Jenna Nicholls grew up singing jazz and a bit of folk in front of audiences all around town. Her sophomore album, The Blooming Hour, continues to utilize her beautifully hushed voice, along with some delicate guitar work and occasional choral washes. Some toned-down Feist here, a sprinkle of croonings about deceit there, and BAM: an album that is appealing despite its melancholic qualities.

Tracks 1, 9, 3 and 6 are good for those moody days.
