PFTU 8.11.26

Another two hours of new music from the fringes on Postcards From The Underground, moving between shimmering indie pop, cinematic shoegaze, intimate songwriting and left-field electronics. This week’s playlist brings together fresh singles, new album cuts and a few less familiar names, moving from melodic and atmospheric territory into stranger, more unpredictable corners in the world of independent music

Also this week, Soffie from Lowly joins us to talk about the band’s fourth album, Softy, released via Bella Union. Expect plenty of new releases, a few unexpected turns and the usual journey off the beaten path.

Tune in for a playlist that celebrates discovery.
