Drawing influence from the likes of Ben Howard, Australian indie-folk artist Bree Rusev has been featuring on our blog since 2022.

By Graeme Smith

With a distinctive voice and a vulnerable style, Bree makes music that’s easy to love. Her new single Finish Line is no exception. Delivering a lot with a little thanks to its atmospheric acoustic instrumental, her vocals take centre stage, tugging on the heartstrings with each note. Image-laden lyrics speak of the uncertainty of the future and give the track plenty of relatable detail. Soaring high points provide catharsis. It’s simply breath-taking.

Bree has a new EP on the way, set for release in August. Finish Line was recorded and produced in Byron Bay by Garett Kato. It’s out now and you can check it out below.
