Kate Bollinger mesmerizes with mellowed-out gem “Untitled,” a track that shows the various strengths of the Charlottesville, Virginia-based singer/songwriter. A lush rhythm section is accompanied by dual guitar progressions, both meandering breezily amidst Bollinger’s ethereal vocal push. The “worst thing you could do,” expansion past the one-minute mark plays nicely, adding some snares and a more paced vocal reflection. “Untitled” is blissful, easy listening.
The artist has worked recently with producers John Trainum and John Wehmeyer on R&B-geared pop, with plans to release a series of indie pop tracks in 2019. “Untitled” is described by Bollinger as her “jazzy indie-pop debut with a backing band, which adds a liveliness to the tracks without robbing them of their introspective core.”
