[ad_1] Alex Crossland – “Cheap Seats”-If you’re looking for a chill, easy going singer songwriter then definitely check out this new track from Alex Crossland. It has some colorful indie pop vibes that really reminds me of Daryl Rahn. The lyrics are clever and the phrasing is just perfect. The percussive energy keeps the song moving along, but it’s the balance between the lyrical style and the phrasing that really makes the song feel comfortable to me. Another artist this reminds me of is Rusty Clanton, who I absolutely love. Crossland is finding his way to my “on the rise”…
