Newcomer pop artist COTE has clearly been keeping her ear’s peeled to indie pop’s current state of affairs. On the NYC artist’s debut track, "London," she brings together dreamy guitar licks in addition to nostalgic synth patterns — both of which are hallmarks of today’s pop landscape. Her dark and sultry vocals might be slightly reminiscent of mellow-pop goddess Lana Del Rey, but make no mistake: her debut single ‘London’ shows a peronality that’s all her own. Most importantly, this is a beautifully produced track that showcases a young artist with a noteworthy voice and very promising songwriting chops. — Henry Solotaroff-Webber
