For the first Fresh Finds of the New Year, we want to highlight a favorite of ours: Henrik and his new single, “You and your eyes.” The consistency and quality Henrik demonstrated over the previous year are already evident in this release, an incredibly powerful folk ballad. His innate ability to craft engaging tempos and song structures remains a hallmark of his catalog, and this talent shines once again on “You and your eyes.”
Our next mention goes to John Michael Howell and his new single, “MERCY.” Howell continues his commitment to faith and delivers a powerful, overarching message in this record. It is truly inspiring to see a popular artist in 2025 curating meaningful, faith-based music that resonates with such a wide, mainstream audience. Howell’s impeccable vocal cadence provides an irresistible flow sure to captivate listeners of all backgrounds.
Our final mention goes to Graham and his first release of the New Year, “My Medicine.” This song underscores the rising dominance and growing popularity of modern folk music, while it also reflects his clever songwriting and knack for creating catchy, engaging songs that carry much deeper meaning than much of today’s popular music. His growing fan base is a testament to his ability to connect with listeners who value substance and depth in their music.
