Toronto Guardian Monthly Spotify Playlist – September, 2021

Our monthly Spotify playlists with songs from the bands featured the previous month are a great way to share our featured artists beyond the single post on each.

These playlists feature one song from each of the musicians we featured the previous month in a Spotify playlist that is then shared on our website with our readers. If you can follow these artists and share their music, I am sure they would appreciate it.

For our sixth edition, we have 8 songs to share from the month of September, 2021.

Enjoy!

The post “Five Minutes With” Pop-Punk singer-songwriter, Sophie Powers appeared first on Toronto Guardian.

]]> At just 17 years old, Sophie Powers is the bold voice of a new generation. She understands the unique pressures of modern girlhood and uses her experience to write unfiltered, devil-may-care anthems about the ups and downs of being yourself. One minute she’s confident and cool, with the sneering attitude of a punk rock frontwoman, and the next she’s vulnerable and raw, channelling the loneliness of contemporary life in a stirring ballad. Combining the crunchy sound of punk with today’s hip-hop and pop, Powers is the sound of the future.
